Proselytized~ By Ananya S Guha

Now,
sitting 
in this office room
where the wall clock 
dries wells of hope 
where sounds emanate 
from nowhere,
but are sounds all the same
where the cricket's hum 
is brain teaser 
where I see the sun sinking 
in a bowl of dust 
where blaring music 
hurts

Dusk invades the 
heart. 
like a crusader's spirit 
I am proselytized.
