Colours Poem by Prabhakar Subramaniam

Colours



Colours have a way

Of turning against you

The tricolour in the wrong hands

Can make you an enemy

In the eyes of your own country

Make you an alien

On your own soil

Overnight it can make

A thief of you

With faceless uniforms

Storming into the home

When all colours go to sleep

Looking for someone

Painted the wrong shade
