Confetti
S. Nihal Singh
Raj nostalgia
On a handkerchief of land
stand gabled homes
torn from the
English countryside.
Orphaned in
an alien concrete jungle,
they look lost
in their Indian mutation.
To what do we owe
this homage
to the English
country home?
Do our nouveaux riches fulfilment
in imitating the
guardians of the Raj?
