Waiting for your bus

Illustration borrowed from Deshabhimani weekly [Malayalam]

The bus stopped in front of me

The driver thought I was a waiting passenger

The conductor shouted the bus’s destination

to call my attention apparently.

 

Do I have to go anywhere anymore?

Isn’t my country taking people to their destinations?

Isn’t it my duty as a patriot

to do nothing but wait for my bus that will come by and by?
