Poems — Open Submission

Share your Banaras.

We publish real poems from people with a real connection to this city — like मेरा बनारस and ऐ बनारस मेरे बनारस by Ashwini Gulati. If you've written something about Banaras — in Hindi, English, or both — send it to us below.

Not every submission will be published, but every one will be read. If yours is chosen, it goes up credited with your name, exactly as it arrived.

Prefer to send it directly? Message it to us on WhatsApp instead.
