school nanaman tayo

Amma taught me Avvaiyar's verses while I earned crypto trading at midnight. My fingers danced between Tamil poetry and blockchain, bridging two worlds my grandmother never imagined. When I first withdrew enough to buy Amma her dream house, I wept. She clutched that deed like the palm leaf manuscripts she cherished, understanding finally that her granddaughter spoke an ancient language and a digital one. "School nanaman tayo," she whispered, proud. We were learning still, together. My children would know both our songs and our future.
