"The Border"
Suhani Chadha
The border is a butterfly gliding through atmospheric pascals
The border is a penguin following its loved ones to the shore
The border is a writhing feeling for a best friend 6000 km away
The border is a choice between either—or—all of the above
The border is a fence where Indians and Pakistanis share Biryani
The border is a wall drawn by Rama to protect Sita from the ten-headed demon
The border is a computer screen separating you from tiles of faces
The border is a pair of shoes dangling off a merry-go-round with its dancing laces
The border is a bus station where youngsters cling to their grandmother
The border is a breaching feeling of arch-nemeses falling in love with each other
