You live in my cuisine  in my heart’s magazine  My walls are stone boulders  For you, they are tin  I walk in wide everglades  in my dusty suedes  And when I look at the skies above  your silver screen never fades  In moments of memory  there’s a tryst with antiquity  In the rewriting of history  Continue reading “I look to you: A poem “

The late yellow moon still haunts the skies  Above the cumulus clouds, it solemnly lies  in its inertia, like a tethered swaying boat  In this convalescent glow, her ideas float  The night cops are wizards conjuring order  Like all-seeing stars in the silent city further  Above the black hills that are bare of even aContinue reading “Love by the campfire: A poem “

On the streetside, beggar’s crap and snot  Civilisation is a crowded parking lot  The road hog drives with eyes bloodshot  A teenager’s break is smoking pot  Children love with apps in their hand  Survival is stodgy with greed in its glands  The sucker ducks to a posse of packages  Hide your convictions, as we returnContinue reading “The world as it is: A poem “

You flew into my life. I took flight  A stork slept with me, each night  It took your name in black and white  A star encumbered my palm. It was alight  My mind was awestruck by chimera’s pageant  I was sleepless with joy, but felt like a regent  Ideas stormed through, inspiration was agent  ItContinue reading “Fastidious with prayer: A poem “

Sunshine of reality dampens illusion  In alleys, punctured cans of derision  Shallow laughter ground like embers  And even as night falls, one can’t remember  For, pain can be occluded like the stars  Yet, they poke their light in unseemly hours  Those that can’t see them from their towers  don’t know that poverty is a toughContinue reading “Injustice runs naked in full view: A poem “
