Have you seen
a funnier sight
than a baseball cap
resting on an
improbable head?
Bindi on forehead,
tight pyjamas
and a floppy
shirt desperately
hiding waves of flesh.
The setting is
the stadium;
it is a
run for a
good cause.
What politicians
must do to
earn a living.
Or perhaps it is
fame that beckons.
Baseball caps don’t go
with Indian gear
on frames redolent
of overindulgence
in food.
No exercise
makes our netas
spread out,
taking more space
than they should.
