ALIEN
Here nobody knows my language,
and I don't know theirs.
Far away, my villagers directed me to this city to
search for a bright, lily flower in a polluted pond.
To reach my destination, I ask people whom I see,
but they don't understand me,
I have to reach the pond before sunset.
I'm in a hurry.
My anxiety scares people away;
the flower is my only life's hope!
Abdul Punnayurkulam
