What Times

The upbeat moon 
becomes dazed, when you 
start, the dance of death. 
 
Personified, lone word, 
unloved; changes the 
choreography. 
 
Given space, a sick 
crowd, expands, unsquares, 
for the throne. 
 
The abysm from which 
the cicadas are crawling out 
to devour our being. 
 
I do not want to 
control you, your song. 
I am burning in my own holocaust.

Your Voice

There was a sharp rise 
of indecent things. On the 
rocks you left my name 
without flowers. 
 
Make a heap of all 
the gifts of life and griefs and 
start a bonfire. No message 
is going to come. 
 
Let us live in separate bowls 
of soup. Time had swept 
them clean for a murder. 
 
One day the alien god will 
alight from the sins, 
to alter the numbers. 
 
The mudslide of untruths 
will scupper your house 
made of paper and pen.

Fermenting Mind

A desire spews the rocks. 
Between two moments 
lies my body. 
 
Learning the first alphabet 
of violence. I fail myself 
in the lily pond. 
 
Statues and inscriptions 
were me. I had become 
the god of doubts. 
 
A disembodied faith 
overtakes my senses, 
I float between the words. 
 
The humming 
starts from a formless bee. 
The everpresent honey drips.

Resistance

Hiding from each other 
your prosperity. 
I wanted to remain a fakir. 
 

 
This was the faith 
in its truest sense. I wanted 
to live in childhood paucity. 
 

 
Like the first letter 
I wrote to you, I am 
sending you a poem.

departures

in this empty room
 
no chats
day in day out
for days and days the room
stands still almost forlorn until
someone
 
departs
leaving the rest
still remaining to grieve
and touch before our room goes
empty//

Ingression

After tasting the homemade 
poison, the walls, 
start moving. 
The poppies are in bloom. 
I am not interested in morphine 
or codeine. A sago palm has 
come of age, preparing to 
put up the conical sex. 
A trust deficit will not know, 
the signature of veneer, of 
the gender. 
 
Something moves behind the 
bushes. I was already afraid 
of emptiness. After the violence, 
amputations and barrenness. 
The desert invades my bones. 
Cannot sleep with hands 
on my chest. Will you 
collect some runners? 
I want to raise 
the grass for the sake of commanality.

Frenetically

The nephrite syndrome. 
I will not change the― 
calculus, to find the truth 
of the flesh. 
 
The paid price of chemistry 
will make history. If 
you can stop the blitz― 
of the replicas. 
 
It ends like a fire, without 
ashes. The limbs check 
the fall. Across the river 
an isle erupts. 
 
The prisoner at last escapes, 
from the procession of profanities. 
You are finally liberated, 
releasing the lost poem.

Head And Torso

Nothing-ness fills me 
again. Once visiting a funeral 
home, a child asked me, 
why do the people die? 
 
How do I explain the dark 
side of life? A blunt trauma, 
makes me jaded. One collapsing 
process creates the black hole. 
 
A nude, the tall figure, stands 
on the rock, much venerated, 
and you cannot take off the 
eyes, deciphering the skin. 
 
In the intense pain of― 
learning, a fantasy of 
looking out at a ghost deity 
in the vegetable, springs a miracle.

Some Glimpses

Moon rose from 
obscurity, once I released 
the fury of darkness. 
 

 
Do not want to 
repeat; why my song was 
stolen by flight of birds. 
 

 
The negativity of 
the penknife. Always tearing 
away the heart.

An Opening

I will color 
the sky, grieving for the 
departed moon. 
 

 
Tossing my words 
onto the lake, to bring back 
my baby pink. 
 

 
Night I had woven 
a gold pattern on the bed. 
Memory will know.
