Gulf Kids, a Poem

Passport Country and Home are divorced concepts
Often mistaken for married
Identities are plural
Preferred to be straight laced by nationalists
Third Country (Gulf) are mosaics
Low Globalisation's children
Grew up drinking RC Cola
Binging on Sohar Chips
Shwarma is staple fare
Mostly obese they are
Disconnected from holiday homes
In Kerala
Watching Asianet in a distant way
Connect more with lands that are arid
But are oasis of love
