garlanded me with a tire
'call hanuman now', they said,
and set it on fire.

two held me, one stripped me,
'kill the katua!' they said,
and hung me from a tree.

flaming crucifixes outside,
'no rights' they said,
we hugged death inside.

wrong side of the wall.
'wrong papers,' they said,
bound and gagged i fall.

deaths on tv, i must confess
are terrible, but the worst
is death by loneliness.
