HONOUR KILLING

Kevin and Neenu
Lovebirds
Separated by ‘Honour killing’
On a fateful night
When a cop betrayed
God’s own country
For 2000 bucks
Resembling Judas’ betrayal of Christ
For 30 silver coins
When revolutionary outfits
Stood with hunters
Making mockery of its ideology
When ‘Satan’ visited
Kevin’s grief-stricken family
On the pretext of breaking news
Kevin’s soul departed this world
Leaving behind an inconsolable Neenu
And a blot on civilized society.
