There is a steep mountain between two hearts  At its base, a hobgoblin spins and darts  And, in the hostelry, who would work the loom?  Would it be yarn for a tomb and not a womb?  And I can invoke all the mysteries of sadness  from an orchestra of music in the darkness  which emphasises,Continue reading “Will it also be dark, tomorrow?: A poem “

The fool is waiting  in subliminal pastures, everyday  like the unexpectant cattle grazing  in his own restrainedly amazing way   And he knows that if it is an illusion,  there is always a contradiction and a confusion  Can those promised measures of treasures  be just a tool of perseverance for a fool?  There can be surmise ofContinue reading “Epilogue to a fool’s tome: A poem “

You kiss me…like the horizon  And I whisper: ‘tomorrow”  Let the stars fall today  like electrons having lost their motion  For, today is starved of relief  like a nation fighting for its freedom  And I am a creator  who makes time sub-atomic…  makes it both solid and liquid  in a quantum curry of both pastContinue reading “You kiss me…: A poem “

I could be born again  But I think “not again!”  “Not after I lived lifetimes in so much pain!”  Can I be stronger, when it gets longer?  Can the sublime outlast the sorrow?  Can aloneness be a self-sustaining desert?  Can my own perspiration moisten my thirst?  Sometimes, I think, I need a shoulder, a hand Continue reading “I have a question for God: A poem “
