Confetti
Lost in transition
S. Nihal Singh
Heavy stuffed sofas
with loud covers
line the wall,
their backs draped with
plastic.
On the mantlepiece
a gaudy calendar
has several deities
in a row.
A brand new refrigerator
is set at a
distance from
the wall.
In a corner,
wooden brackets
support shiny
curiosities.
The proud owner
has made it
to the
middle class haven.
Where, I wondered,
did he leave
his aesthetic sense
and sensibility?
