My heir always puts me the same question: “Father! When do you expect me?” I stand before the full length mirror. Not a six-pack body But six-lakh insults shall I see therein. Whenever I look at my close crop of curls Recalling the knotted hairs of my grandfather Who was denied both scissors and…

Habit … BVV Prasad, Telugu, Indian
