Ek aur duniyan
31 Dec 2001

Juton ke neeche
bilkul neeche
ek duniyaan hoti hai
maili si, bedhangi aur nishapran.

Duniyan-
simati hui, ulajhan bhari nishtran
ek duniyan hoti hai
juton ke neeche.

Dabi hui, jhuki jhuki, bojhil
duniyan
kuchalaati, karaahati, tiraskrit
maarmaahat, pisati duniyan
apmaanit, padadalit
duniyan hoti hai
juton ke neeche.

Dhukhswapnon ki duniyan
lachhari, bimari, bhukhamari ki
duniyan
bilbilaate kidon ki
bhayanak, andheri v kaali
duniyan hoti hai
juton ke neeche.

Ek duniyan-
jinake jeene ka sambal hoti hai
mutthi bhar dhool
sadandh aur seelan bhari
jise
chhorate jate hian ham
vikaas ke badhate harek kadam par
apane peeche
rote bilakhate
juton ke nishan ke saath
