Jashmina, is there any cause left for heeding?: A poem 

The overlooming persistence of PSP’s treachery 

carnates like an animated perennial smog over New Delhi! 

So, should I train my guns on my own armies 

because I fail to exorcise them off him? 

There is no sacredness in the feigning of 

loyalties to my enemies. And I shudder to think I may 

have to bequeath them my soul or my energy, that they 

should thus claim rampant illegitimate victory out of the evil done to me! 

I am immersed in preoccupation, Jashmina, that 

how can I love you, when my love for you is my saboteur? 

And do you wake up to my sacrifice, or conveniently  

comply with the evil against me? I have not made my  

soul subservient, but you have made yours, and in doing so, 

have compelled mine. Should I say my wizardry, my 

miraculousness must glare at self-defeat and be lost to bewitchery. Even more tragic 

is the fact that your fortress is built on fear. I feel the stench of  

cherished flesh being consumed by a wicked depravity; and there is little I 

can do about it but watch you skewer it for the cannibalistic  

fish of the deep sea or for your evil Dada! I just think that love goes beyond the  

vandalism of its subject but turns the subject itself into 

an ossuary where the relic ceases to be sacred. My 

sanctity and my sanity, Jashmina! And the deathtraps 

you create for all that and all those I fight for!
