What a contrast to think about divine life
In a place devoid of divinity forever as it’s
Famously designated as cochon de Phichery!
Mystics have reached end of journey to moksha
Once upon a time in this slumbering town then
Naturally inviting visitors and settlers ever on!
Native’s spoiling of the significance of spiritualism
Seems to be superseded by tourists visiting it often
Perpetuates the mystical glory even after no trace of it!
Beauty of the town is spoiled by commercial activity
Coupled with industrialisation sometime back too have
Become defunct by political measures always anti-people!
Materialism and pleasures of physical pursuits of modernity
Contradicts with mystical pursuits of divine life alarmingly!
