This blemishless burning fire


This blemish less  burning fire.

This  blemish less  burning    fire,  ever  alert
Queries    why  the  same  is   inactive   in  others
With  a  vindictive   destructive    ire,
 A  cool  sip  of  ice  water  and  you  turn  to 
Catch  the  running   dialogues   in  TV.
TV show   boomerangs  with virile   fist  cuffs
 arson   and  lootings,  uncanny   episodes,
it   is    sad ,  bad  karma  to  be  born
in  these   unchecked ,  inductile   atmosphere,
spearheading   one  to  another,
 I see the key chain  dangling
A   whiff  of  wind     sweeps   it  past,
The    car   key   moving  hither and thither
Falls  as  if  bemoaning  its  karma:
Still    consoling itself ,   me, as well,  
Tomorrow  I am the starter,
Driver,  run  racer,  with  a  killer  instinct,
Even in  crash  I  hang  on 
To my  space,  my  special  space,
The   car  key  jingles  with  a
Blemish less    fire.

I wear the Sacred Thread


I  wear  the  Sacred Thread of Patience.

This   strong  undiluted ,twisted 
like  a  multilayered   knot
 A    thread  Of    Patience   
Runs   Cap-a-pie  :   not
Bogged   down   by  any  Fear
  Or   Sagged  down   by                                
Wearied, sweat    and  care.
Drilled   by Will, powered   by
A    Supreme   cavalcade     of
Predetermined   foregone  images,
This   Architect  called   Soul,
Unyielding  to the  mounting 
Pressures   of   day to day  seemingly          
Declivity , no  certainly  not .
The   self willed    God  -ordained 
Thread  of  Patience  pulls
Me  up,   furthering  with  a
Ladder   of  Patience 
Accompanied  by  a hope
Of   Bright  Days  Ahead.

Blood! Blood! Red Blood.


 Blood!  Blood! Red  Blood.

There  it  flows  out of its veins,
 Green veins restricted,  now   as if                                                                                
In  a  flow  chart,
Now   looks   liberated, no not?
Congealed , no more  use  to 
Anybody,ANY BODY in  need
beckoned  by   accidents and surgeries,                                                                                                      
Blood, red Blood, is it  my  blood?
Your  Blood,  Blood  is  Blood .                     
It  looks  as if  giving  a  message,
Man’s  heart  is  congealed,                                          
hardened  like a granite ,                              
I am already   frozen inside.
This  is  only  an extension
Of  my aberrated   status   outside.

Glaring two



I   walk  by  the  symmetrical  lawn.       
The  measured  ,sprawling , gravel
 as  if  chiselled  by  the  architect
of  the  mansion, by  the  side, coagulating
  and    supine    grass   up fronting
the  sky   for  its   clangs of  Mercy,
it is  getting  hotter  slowly,
 the  cloth  drier  is  empty,
 not  yet   time  for  the housewife
to unload  her  bucket of  garments,
sparrows   safe  in their  shady  nook
of   neem     tree , my  ancestral            
symbol   of lineage   the  leaves 
serve  a s  good  exorcist of  umbrage,
my   BRITISH POETRY   fritters  in a  corner,           
return  of  the  crow  to  dip
its    long    beak   in  the  bucket,               
you    too    go  to  the  cool pot.

Mortuary Breathes


Mortuary   Breathes
                                                                                                                           
This   ghastly , weird  mortuary
breathes  with    many a  breathless
those   of  whom  throbbing    till 
A while  ago,                              
This  mortuary  preaches 
The otherness of  Life,
Figures   in   some,   distorted,
Some  in  amputated  shapes
  heaped up, their  souls
already  embarked upon
A  different  journey, their
Own   predestined  routes,
While  the living  ,the kith and kin
In  a   hurried  journey  here,
  land  and  Search    them:
This  place:  a  white cloth
Covers  and  closes  the grand finale.
Morbid  yet, sheltering
All  the voiceless  now.
