I have set my ground between Mars and Venus!: A poem 

I suddenly felt I was an ever-enlarged tower 

reaching into the heart of the sky 

As if I had become Sandalphon 

The trunk of the tallest entity ever 

I think of the days I became strange to Sol Invictus 

And even felt lost with Ares 

How every friend I had counted on felt like an enemy?! 

Did the loneliness last an eternity? 

But now, I think even Sandalphon 

doesn’t hold a candle to my largesse  

I have paid so many dues without owing a single liability 

And never asked for the humongous debt owed to me 

At least I’m sure I got so many brownie points 

For every extremely difficult life I’ve led 

And at the end of every day, and the end of every life, 

I count my blessings in the honour I begot 

It is an example to you all, of my legacy 

I know love is not just the manifestation of an ephemerality 

I had its adventure with the ones I held dear for all eternity 

Even the sun is now holding his hands out to me 

to shout a party in my honour with ninety-seven guest attendees 

I have reserved a length between Mars and Venus  

And you know I’m waiting for all I love to sit around that table like one big family! 

Just as if not only all the planets, but all the stars, the entire universe belonged to me!
