New Pathways

Despite the anger, 
the truth will 
not speak. 
 

 
It was a concussion, 
after the fall. 
A prophet had fainted─ 
 

 
in midsentence. 
A blue vase was broken 
in the smell of roses.

Soaring High

Ethics 
takes a nap, 
in a blink, 
without qualms. 
 

 
A jilted lover, like 
a broken moon, takes 
a jump from the hill. 
 

 
In this twilight 
who am I, 
in this crowd of sinners?

Making Overtures

Night. 
A scantily clad sky, 
with unkempt clouds. 
Moon was climbing. 
 
Caved in. 
I had nothing left 
to say, except 
soundless poems. 
 
No regrets; 
in this climactic 
struggle of life. The 
pain eases, when 
 
memory fails. 
The flesh engages the 
spirit. End would wait 
till the grass banks.

Oversighting

With shaking hands 
you give a fatal push 
to the old year. 
 

 
Inner turmoil 
falls through the cracks 
of your persona. 
 

 
A troubled past 
wants you to end the slavery 
of sleeping, between birth and death.

Scraping The Dimness

Like a prune, it was 
an old year, standing 
before me. You start 
counting the wrinkles. 
 
In shift, you become 
the problem, cannot read 
the jigsaw. It had 
uprooted the faith. 
 
I was terribley upset, the 
birds had not returned 
to the lake this winter; what 
do I do, I was talking to moon. 
 
A new misty morning. I take a 
small foot, set myself in the 
god's hour and start 
planting the bulbs of tulips.

The Commitment

The lesion was 
spreading. From 
inside, I hear the wails. 
 
Past and present 
of time, plows 
the furrows, in future. 
 
Seeds remain 
unplanted. I seek 
justice from the earth. 
 
Turn off the lights 
I want to see─ 
the moon in its full glory. 
 
Someone has left 
the message for us. 
Go out to face the wolves.

Ejection Fraction

Step down from your 
ego. The brain dead has─ 
left a lesson. 
 
Left a lesson, the brain dead. 
Will you measure the 
EF before the cardiac arrest? 
 
Sexing an issue 
of dented verbs, why 
do you need a defence? 
 
The numbers are climbing. 
You have entered─ 
a high risk zone, 
 
of killing yourself. 
Give me a ghost writer, I 
need an art, not a duplicate.

It Was Pindrop Silence

Into the nightscape, 
an earthen lamp ushers in 
the new year. 
 

 
I will look 
back at the bright moon 
hung on a tree. 
 

 
In misty dawn 
the suspense grows deeper. 
There was a huge explosion.

Predation

There was no clear move. 
Flamethrowers were on the way─ 
 
and I was looking, 
backward. 
 
A fragile truce with the 
clouds. They had abandoned─ 
 
the sky and were wringing─ 
the neck of mountains. 
 
Compromising with the painted lips 
of winter, my secret was out. 
 
I was shivering in the crowd 
of moon-gazers.

Poised

Deceived several 
times, you err again, and 
put up your debut kill. 
 

 
A graphic escape, 
of moon from the dark 
clutches of clouds. 
 

 
The blackbucks 
get ready to leapfrog on the 
first sound of shots.
