(For Sergey Grichenko*)
Hope lurking
Deep down
Beneath layers
Of solid rock
In the earth’s
Bowels
Trapped between
The pervious and
The impervious
Tantalizes
The Diviner
And Deep down
Beneath thick
Layers
Of chapped skin
In the dark
Hollow
Of the human heart
Glowers
The steady flame
Of a silent prayer
(Sergey
Grichenko was a Ukrainian oil engineer,
kidnapped and killed by a terrorist outfit in Assam.)
