River swallowing the huts of some

Overflowing rivers
Shelter less families
I don’t know
If the rivers are hungry for their homes
Or sea needs the silt of their walls
I know a new island has emerged in
Bay of Bengal
Is it the Sedimented soil of washed away homes
But whose homes
Will you build on new island?
Do the southwester winds
Want their hunger to be addressed
By the huts on the islands
People dont mind
They still offer flowers to the river
Which swallows their homes
Do you bother
