Screeching Siren
Swiveling Red lights
Adrenaline up in the veins
Man behind the wheel sweats;
also the cops steering
‘green corridor’ mission.
The racing van flies smooth
in Chennai’s crammed traffic.
Inside it is an Indian heart harvested
throbbing to gift life to a Pakistani
on his last legs, and it wins,
thanks to gifted hands.
At the border line
the donor’s soul asks:
“Will it beat for India?”
