Rajesh Joshi (Translated from Hindi)
The Sun dreamt of becoming the moon
The moon of becoming a billion stars
Bread fell into a dream of becoming a doe
Jumping around in a forest
I came out of a cave
With a bow and arrows
Suddenly from behind a tree
Prowling
A cheetah caught the doe!
After this the real night came
And nobody had
Anything to dream of.
