Indira Renganathan - School-Time Autorickshaws

2014-06-15 3 Dailymotion

Tailless Bandicoots infest tri-wheeled
Magnified, laurelled, festooned..
School bags, lunch bags, watter bottles
In gentle jounce
On their humps as they takatakataka
On tremulous birr trickling amusing
Their children in open bellies

Crisscross, zigzag the streets
Through their nosy horns
Pied traffic ransoms the piper
Letting free the T.Bandicoots
Children innocently picnic
T.Bs smokily panic
A way of minting routine, kinetic
