Strange

All night November, 
I was searching the vulnerable 
lips after loosing you. 
 
Now fingerless hands 
were moving the sun-dial 
away from light. 
 
The shroud was heavy, 
I would not breathe. 
Give me a blue moon before dawn. 
 
You cannot engage in 
sudden withdrawl. I will 
come back for a kiss. 
 
The paper that leaves a wound, 
I will not sign for the bread. 
My hands had stopped trembling.

Unfinished

Can you enlarge the moment, 
when the time stopped and 
you were trying to get a 
glimpse of beyond? 
 
You become a no-moment, a 
no-truth, in a sauteed 
orgasm. 
 
And someone plucks a death 
from your poems to 
resuscitate you, draped 
in tears. 
 
The track record will show, 
you were only yourself, 
and never became a riddle. 
 
Let go of me. It was only 
a happening, undoing the 
play, held in dark. As I 
cross the door, you become invisible.

Truncated

A midnight craft 
dumps the moon 
on a heap of deceits. 
I ask my sap to turn back for truism. 
 
It was a question of spacing 
between the bodies 
in scapegoats; 
coming for slaughter. 
 
A scale measures the depth 
of defeats. The hands 
were busy in mending the 
walls of psychiatric ward. 
 
Have you ever tasted a white 
poison, sweet in taste? 
When you grow old, you will 
look like your father. 
 
The name which was absent 
in calendar, was found everywhere.

Hurting Dive

As if pruning was not enough. 
After severance from the peak, 
the ladder was becoming 
aloof and murky. 
 
Acid burn on the day 
of breaking confidentiality. 
An imperfect mirror was 
wiping out the cloud, all night. 
 
You are going to take on the 
starless sky. A moon was 
left out in the stillness of black sheen. 
You are now poking at the globes. 
 
Give me a pen to lift the 
remorse. I was desperate to become 
human. Death was looking at me 
with great amusement.

Blemishes

Without assent 
I open your book 
to find your crazy god on mat. 
 
Love was a blind bird 
in a state of agony. 
Learning to fly. 
 
Moon would not reply 
through aslant door. 
Something was between us. 
 
Here, now a sordid tale 
breaks the taboo. They 
were investing on skin. 
 
It was a cheap wine 
in a golden chalice, 
for a lipless mouth.

Into The Tempest

The dichotomy was complete. 
I walk in your tears 
to move away. 
 
The night smelt like a 
burnt-out doll, and I was 
quaking inside like a peony lip. 
 
The sunk baby. You stay 
uncovered in half-sleep. 
The drag of the noose around- 
 
your neck was evident. I 
want to squeeze the pods. 
Why did not the pollen meet- 
 
the stigma? The needles are 
coming out of the eyes. A prose 
is gone. The poem walks in.

Turning Gray

You wanted to understand 
the tenor of wet, heavy lids ― 
that had emigrated from 
deep oceanic eyes. 
 
You believed―it will go on 
for ever. Roused in peace. 
I will listen to the voice of river 
lapping at the shores of pain. 
 
Cocoon was lying still, will 
not open to us. I was ready 
to receive the death at door. 
But it was a stripteaser. 
 
The lovers will meet in the 
wilderness, ride the lioness 
and black berries will go to 
moon for the payment of wages.

Stonewashed

It laps up the solitude. 
A flame hits the stonewall 
of silence. 
 
A dust cloud, covers 
the finale of conflict. 
Nobody wins the race. 
 
You arrogate to yourself 
the skill to accept the heat of argument. 
Can you reach the end of thought? 
 
Ravishing black 
picks up the fallen moon. 
Somebody will go green. 
 
If I could walk on 
the lake? The faithless will 
wreck the pledge.

*on 100th Birthday Of Alan Turing

Why were you collecting the 
people all around? 
Unsure of yourself on the 
ambiguity of an inquest? 
 
I remained unhappy my 
whole life and left the 
bed after chemical-castration, 
in hurry. 
 
In hindsight inside the 
nightmare room, what was 
left to imagination? The 
half-eated apple? 
 
Hold my hand. I am coming 
with you, to settle 
my account with god, for 
creating people of this type. 
 
 
• 
 
The purple spillage 24 June 2012 
was ready to play with- 
fire, for estranged lover, 
 
inventing a fake enemy. 
What if I die again and 
again for you. 
 
It begs the identity of a 
black moon, perhaps to reflect 
the stuttering homophobia. 
 
Crossing the time zones, searching 
the old snow, in the cracks of 
volcanic rocks, you kiss a clove bud. 
 
In anger, I receive your ashes, 
when it was raining blue. 
A baby died in a crib, unattended. 
 
 
*Code breaking genius, founder of computer science, who allegedly committed suicide on 7th June 1954.

Leaves Of Roses

A racial profile begins 
between black and white. 
A silver moon ambles 
as a prelude to dark music. 
 
A winter night tosses hundred 
excuses, 
for not lighting the lamps. 
 
Words were still trying to 
find the ropes. 
 
You should know your boundaries. 
The honeysuckle will 
not graze your lips. 
 
The salt of earth settles 
in tears of dawn.
