Untrodden Snow

A night of one thousand moons 
and I am dancing 
in dark. 
 
Circa. 
My half-script was left 
with you, under a scrap. 
 
Now I am not 
finding any punctuations 
in the aerie. 
 
At unknown heights 
wake me up in blue depths 
when sun does not rise. 
 
Stones placed on hyacinth 
will not bury the scent. 
I might bring another red spike.

Ancient Sins

Drunk with pride 
the streets are bursting 
in self-indulgence. 
Who was calling the shots? 
 
Do you know the words 
between intermissions, carry a secret- 
till the brazen scoop 
finds the hidden meaning. 
 
It was grave 
very grave truice, unmaking love 
between the estranged lovers- 
when clouds were seducing the moon. 
 
You don't belong to this 
crowd of renegades. Ants 
will take away the 
divorced dreams. 
 

 
Fissile belly 
has started showing signs 
of reckoning. A gloom has settled, 
gyrating in a sunken garden 
for the hung corpses. 
 
Never cruel were the times before 
when blind needles were unstitching 
the lips of frozen faces. I refuse 
to start a prayer 
till the grass covers a silent tomb. 
 
Last night it had rained 
on the private flesh. It was 
full of semen. You do not 
belong to this world 
of pregnant pause.

Armless Enemies

In your domain 
walking with men of straw 
to immolate myself. 
 
If power was sacred 
why you did not stop 
the reversing of gender role? 
 
Oh, there was water on Mars 
streaking like the tears 
on your face. 
 
The apes were coming. 
There was elation and suspicion. 
The vortex of existence needs surgery. 
 
Unlikeness calls for 
introspection. I am asking 
god to pray for me.

Silver Trails

By the moon 
I drink you again. 
The night is trembling; 
ruffles the colossal tears. 
 
The terrible ache of the 
illegitimate mercy. I am 
not accepting any poem 
half-dead under my pen. 
 
The invisible force, bribing 
the tears was a grace 
uncalled for. I am going to forget 
the date of my cessation. 
 
It was a false peace of the womb. 
There was no banality 
in sending the message. 
Death has no other name.

Landing Without Gears

In asci we stand like 
spores in a floating pain 
in trepidation of something 
evil. 
 
It was a lily pond. 
The water brings a dead city 
on lotus leaves. I will 
become crazy for small deviations. 
 
The body bags are full of 
remains. You know everything 
before hand, from alphabet 
to full script. 
 
In my own way I will 
decipher the stream of 
death’s language. A part 
of your face floats nearby. 
 
The uncollected legs were 
searching the flame of sorrow 
without digging a hole.

Contraptions

When I was arranging daffodils 
you send in tanks. 
 
The sky was overcast. 
When I was talking to clouds 
Fireballs are delivered. 
 
That signals the specific gravity 
is shifting to knobs. 
The artist was going 
to disappear. 
 
I think of faithfulls. 
How beautifully they talk of 
two moons. 
 
I had decided to quit 
when you send in a hymn.

Backtracking

Leave something for me to imagine. 
A skeleton in a pond 
leaps to the moon. 
 
In an air bubble 
lies the history of a suspended 
name, wasted away on water. 
 
A war is declared on the 
family of words, not spoken 
to anguish of man. 
 
I thought of my sun 
averting a disaster. The sprouts 
will not come out of the earth. 
 
An enquiry into the nature of 
immanence, leads to starvation. 
The body of truth turns into a snake. 
 
The revolution within, shows 
a false victory. You start again 
from the ugly fingers.

Enigmatic

The secular love: 
you are contaminated 
between skin and prayer. 
 
Back from the odyssey 
finding a crop-circle 
in bridal chamber. 
 
Rival was an alien 
with a flat stomach 
thinking black. 
 
The thieving sperms 
had a glorious end, 
unentered in grass. 
 
Your body was churning out 
a religion. 
I will find out my own god.

Ignition

Like a butterfly pinned 
in a collage, fluttering. 
Death makes a deal. 
 
I was appalled 
standing on the edge 
watching the withering body. 
 
The lake drowns me. 
Seagulls were waiting 
for a renaissance. 
 
It is not even midsummer. 
The planting of the kiss 
remains incomplete. 
 
No sex was involved 
in baring midriff. 
Moon ignites the legs.

Wishes

Nothing was beholden. 
Colony counts were perfect. 
You were never guaranteed and exit. 
 
I am stalked by lips 
of a black tulip holding 
a moonbeam. 
 
The world moves 
wearing a shell of emptiness 
in a cosmos, inviolable. 
 
Aggrandizement 
beyond the bluffing. 
More beliefs and many withdrawls. 
 
You will not kill me? 
Half-way to soothing words 
of ecstasy.
