THE HEAT WITHIN
==================
1972 : Delhi
C,R , Park , India , a just born colony
of Bengali-s ; the outgrowth of ' Exodus'
or Refugees of 1947- Freedom -aftermath .
In B- Block the owner was a school Teacher
idealist , honest, Moralist ( what not !) unto the root
could not raise his house beyond ;Plinth'
for he refused to bribe the Corporation -group
His graduate- daughter was 26 yrs. old and UN-married for
he refused ' dowry' , in any form , for marriage to worthy one-s
his Principle was rocky - strong and she is living with him now .
After 4 years and with aging he had to bend and submit
with prevailing conditions, Time and living ; even had to 'retreat '
Others' houses were coming up fast ; his' plinth' now started to grow
in another year his house was Complete changing his ' inner- -glow '
He is now a UP-dated man fitting with Modern Life .
His daughter now resugn to Fate ; she now 31 of Age
The father developed a irritable form burning within in Rage
with aging and frustration he moved about and now a recluse
could not look at his daughter face with calm or any excuse !
Day and night , within a new HOUSE , he battled himself --within.
He fought against Dowry, taught against bribe but now could not forget
that he completed his house but now leaving behind his daughter to unknown fate !
The Mid-day Sun was burning high but that was nothing to him
when he ever faced his Daughter he was burning MORE within !
