Lockdown... Poem by Ashok Sethi

Lockdown...



With sadness and weariness

I plunge fingers into flesh,

pull out my heart,

walk across the room,

open a box,

place my heart in it,

close the box and lock it

- then hide it somewhere

no one can find it

though nothing feeds it

still it beats

and bleeds….
