In the Sanctuary of a Poem written and read by Salil Chaturvedi | Save Mollem #savemollem | Poems for the Ghats

  • Resumen

  • the small tree frog

    for no reason

    that I can possibly know of

    jumps from m to m

    inside this poem

    how it got here i don't know…

    must have left a window open

    why m i don't know…

    are they easier for frogs to rest on?

    but here it is, looking like a small arrowhead

    with a rust colored back

    and two bulbous eyes much like

    headlights, and a mean yellow streak

    along its sides

    and i remember

    something, seeing it jump

    with such precision from

    one m to another,

    i rem e mber (he made it!)

    what my wife had whispered

    near the waterfall deep

    inside the Ghats

    seeing me frozen on a precipice,

    a gameful nudge, then this:

    'never forget that the forest

    flows freely inside your veins.'
