The Poem Nine monsoons have passed
Tents sag under new rain
Children trace maps in mud
That lead nowhere
Voices once promised safety
Now answer only to wind
No path opens back
Only the long forgetting
Feet sink deeper each year
Horizons close like doors
Still the sea remembers names
The land refuses to hold
