It is June. I am tired of being
brave….
~ Anne Sexton, The Truth the Dead Know
The fires you kindle outside are the flames that
consume you from within.
67 days and counting.
0 days since a better day in sight.
What will it take for the rest of the nation,
the world to sit up and take notice?
I must admit it takes a special kind of detachment,
fakiri if you will, to see the obvious and still remain spectacularly
aloof.
So, while Manipur burns and fractures into a
great massive divide, it should come as no surprise, to even those who wished
it so, that in the end, its citizens, its elected representatives, yes even
them, are nothing but collateral damage.
And while thousands lie displaced, and many
still fighting for what they believe to be a just cause, one fact remains
clear.
The cavalry? It isn’t coming.
At least not the kind we’re looking at.
“Some trust in chariots and some in horses, but we trust in the name of the LORD our God…” ~ Psalm 20:7
