Friend

Amitava Nag

You stand tired
in the boxing ring -
the man who bites the dust
down on the floor,
is me,
they cheer you up again with claps
and you bow to them,
throw them a flying kiss -your audience,
not mine.

Friend,
turn this side too,
look at me
bow to the man
who surrendered his win
for you.
