Mother, there is a loud dystopian outcry; must justice die?: A poem 

I hear a placenta knocking at my door  I always had my lightening amid the vocal sound of silence  This is more awakening in the sonne et lumiere  Much of it was the love that I had for you!  How can I discard the womb of my life for an underbelly of pretentious happiness?  Spirituality is much my core, and it is your voiceContinue reading “Mother, there is a loud dystopian outcry; must justice die?: A poem “

I am just sounding my warning bells, Thank you!: A poem 

Here I am singing my song when I’m on the threshold  of 62; even if all of you are stone deaf to my lyrics,  except the ones who want to manipulate them (the lyrics)  illegitimately in their favour, of course! If you all have any   iota of morality in yourselves, or a sense of original spirit,  without it being dampened byContinue reading “I am just sounding my warning bells, Thank you!: A poem “

Oh! How I remember my beautiful pets! In a memory of grieving euphoria!: A poem 

O You think what is fidelity, what is love?!  A bond that even a cynical misanthrope would abound!  This is like a machine shooting out the tennis balls  To keep you alive and kicking and aim the racquet of your heart  How do you feel this exercise of your soul  So agile and eager, like an owl in the night!  I wouldn’t even care aContinue reading “Oh! How I remember my beautiful pets! In a memory of grieving euphoria!: A poem “

All about India and my life in this lifetime!: A poem 

I remember those lazy days with slow-rolling bullock carts  queuing up on those dilapidated streets. There were more   bullock carts then cars, then! Those streets that   would be repaired only if totally outworn. And the hazard of   environmental hygiene being last on people’s minds.  What could be done when there were not enough loos  for a fast-overpopulating nation! I didn’t even like cricket,   but I sneaked into neighbours’ homes just forContinue reading “All about India and my life in this lifetime!: A poem “

Memory is like your roots, but how far?: A poem 

(Could they be still trying to take away my Godhood from me?)  Did you think it was only nostalgia  And you panged to revisit, in spite of the sadness and pain it caused you  Did the eternity blacken out every rock that causes you to shiver  as if it thought it (the memory) better be dropped like shells  that hide the nut of you, so, but you still retain, still being a somewhat wholesome gift of the past  inContinue reading “Memory is like your roots, but how far?: A poem “

Just a lesson in self-perspective, not a treatise in expression of grief!: A poem  

I know there are limits to fortitude, to the ability  to endure pain. Especially when you think you   have no recourse to anyone; or you simply don’t  want to express your emotion.  How do you emote (to calibrate   pain in the baldness of expression), as if its expression, itself,  would leave you inconvenienced and sanguinelessly frustrated!  And your pain is so myriad that you can’t even locate it;  That its sensationContinue reading “Just a lesson in self-perspective, not a treatise in expression of grief!: A poem  “

In the valley of words; and mountains of ideas!: A poem 

Does a word fulfil an expression? Does an  expression fulfil a thought? How benign is   an expletive compared to the sense of actual anger,  bitterness? Do you feel that an expression is  only assuaged by its exhibition? Does, then, expression  mitigate angst? Or do we ignore the frustration of  dissatisfied resonance without the beat of the pulse  and carry on with the swordsContinue reading “In the valley of words; and mountains of ideas!: A poem “

If you could all call a Mango!: A poem 

Did I hang around the big bang?  Was I honky tonk before rock and roll sang?  Did I create my sugar and honey?  Or did it give me diabetes?  Was the singularity more than just a trinity?  Did I create Mum and Dad, or was it them before me?  Sometimes, I wake up singing at three?  How should I know, the Trumps willContinue reading “If you could all call a Mango!: A poem “

I’m sorry, English is not my language; I have my own unique lingo!: A poem 

Do you conjecture I only waste words on my blogsite  while I am always silent in a manner of speaking?  Is that golden? The brashness of putting the truth  down on paper, is that it will always be used as evidence  against you by treacherous conspirators! So do you think  I am baulked between bastions? I can beContinue reading “I’m sorry, English is not my language; I have my own unique lingo!: A poem “

This January, This May, This September!: A poem 

When I lived in the northern hemisphere,  in a land of spice, milk and honey, I respected  the mild-tempered January, the heat of May   and the equanimity of September. As if their  ambience remained illustratively pervading  all through the year. Like a waterless rain of   love, and more significantly, a reign. Like  childhood’s enchanted chrysalis forming every   day. MumContinue reading “This January, This May, This September!: A poem “
