Ditching Commodity Poem by Indira Renganathan

Ditching Commodity

Rating: 5.0


Once a legacy
Pricelessly prised
Idli, Dosai, Vadai
In the pit of fall

Price-hiked 'Urad'
Consumed cost- rise
Gourmet in the pit of grave
Size reduced and weak
Idli, dosai, vadai
Off almost homes
Unfrequented middle-class
Poor went foregone
'Uradh' unreachably rich

Struggle, quarrel, rebel
'Uradh' soaked in tears
Friendly Rice consoled Uradh
Idli, Dosai, Vadai
Somewhat, somehow
Back home
On tip-toe top
