This week on Bol, K Satchidanandan reads his poem ‘Our Tribe’. Satchidanandan is a widely translated Malayalam poet and bilingual writer, translator and editor.

My tribe believes that the borders of nations
Have been painted with the blood of
The martyrs of border-wars and
The tears of their mothers. And that God has
No caste nor religion, no gender nor race.
