1975 Poem by Anand Dixit

Four billion population
Birth of Microsoft
Probe to Mars
Apache Flies

South Vietnam falls
Mutiny in Military
Troops killing their officers
Vietnam Syndrome

Phnom Penh falls
Starvation of Cambodia
Atrocities and reprisals
Mass Evacuation

Mozambique falls
Dictatorship of the proletariat
Centres for Mental Decolonialisation
Forget the son of god

Watergate Scandal
Independence of Angola
Earthquake in China
Charlie Chaplin Knighted

The year I was born
The first born
Into a world torn
To mourn the
Evergreen thorn
