The sparrows that chirped “Tragedy”

Set up more of these if you will

But I shall swing still.

A decent perch for winters

But deadly when it simmers.

Nevertheless, I shall still sway

For you humans have had your way

With our greens and Adam’s ale

A tragedy of the commons without fail.

About the post: I clicked this photo in the midst of a busy, crowded market place in Kolkata. I couldn’t help but stop and marvel at the many sparrows in this spot because I hardly see them anymore in Delhi.

Adam’s Ale means water.

It really is...
