Crematorium

Crematorium

English Poem : #16464 English Poem Abstract : #8499
 prayer   cremation   ganges   flags 

dead

bones rise

in ashes,

furnace spews clouds

choking putrid smoke,

tongues consume bodies, all,

aeolian whispers fan

Varanasi's fierce appetite,

prayer flags wave like a wick of hope

while the ruddy Ganges silently flows.
