Rameshwaram

a poem by Bijay Kant Dubey

Rameshwaram
How was it Rameshwaram in the past
Since when is it Rameshwaram?
How the history of it
The geographical and maritime history of it
Apart from the mythical context?

It is okay
When you say about Lord Rama
But say too about the rail line
Who made it and when
Who constructed the temples
Cutting hills and destroying natural beauty?
