WHEN CHILDREN CRY

  When children cry I cry.   When a girl is raped I laugh as a madman ,   when a clash is fought among  imagined enemies I howl in pain.   When a house is torched, I become its ashes.   When a child cries At dead of night , I shudder.   When I see the beggars Lay coiled with dogs I count my days.   When I see enlightened souls Bargaining hard at potato shops And smartly use cards to pay exact And earn reward points more I praise the market.   When I see the elders
