Dui Naari (Two Women)

Dui Naari is a book by Sunil Ganguli, two stories about two different women. Here're two stories of two different women, and I just had to borrow his title:

You

There's music
and there's music in a washing machine
A mother's lap
or a disturbing dream
A jog
or some late morning sleep

When I'm dead, you'll cuddle up, eyes closed, still.


The other

There is a pause somewhere,
longer than a comma,
blank somehow.

Has the free fall ended in a stark white page?
