Koushik Saha and Argha De‘s collaborative work: Afterlife


What have we done? 

Our cities struggle with our burden

as they cough and heave, 

Our waters, like an oily film covering 

smell of our sin and taint.


All this knowledge, and for what?

To drown in more plastic?

What right do we have to treat the Creator's gift like this? 

This world was left godless the day we began

To kill for more and more and more

Of things that have no meaning in the

Greater scheme.
