This is now


This  is   now

This   is   now    pure   white   drop
Of  water    straight  from    above
 A   sprinkle  of    wisdom ,  a   dawn,
It   is   now   a   caterpillar   falls
From   atop  of  balcony  sticking   
On   terry  bath  towel,     you   remove  it 
with  the   tip   of       your    art pencil,
it   is   now   you  realize  you  are 
a     Haberdasher  to  be
soaked  in  the  water,
it  is   now    you    tear 
the  last   page  to  know
only  you  are in the  introduction.
This  is  now   past   12     midnight,   
You  brood  of   bygone   ‘then’
 This  is   a   strange   now.

Tears -what ?


  Tears    --what   ?
Tears   swell ,   sudden  flow,
could  be   some  
Pearls  of   jubilation, over
Some  reckoning, beckoning,
Reasoning ,  like   sky’s
Guarded    warp;
  unfailing   season’s 
Pour,   farmer’s  boon,

Those unsurpassing      tears
Monopolised  by  the  eyes ,
Now  gloat  over, roll  over,
Crossing   the  boundaries,
Rub  sweat on  the  cheeks,
Wet  her  neatly  folded
Sari, here  unfriendly 

Bend, reach,  what  for,  
She   knows  not.

Blank to Plank


  Blank   to  plank 
 A   paper boat,  a   torn kite,
A    trash  can   overflowing ;
Inescapable, inerasable;
It   is   all   blank, a total 
Blankness    devastating,
You   are  in   the midst  of 
 Bogey   of  mischievous   
Immersing   you   in   the
Tornado:  you  stagger
 Not knowing   the   cause ;
Sudden   SHIFT  into   a
PLANK  of  safety, a  grand 
Relief    like  a  big  flower
Adorning   the   Trinity:
Shored     plank  shared
Your   shares  unaccountable.

poster poems September


  Poster poems  ---- September.

 Majestic   August  is  going  away,
Sun  beams   dim,  recline  westward,
Maudling   Pale    is  covering    the 
Stems     already  with  a   denial
To   accommodate
 Those   drooping  leaves:
 I  hurriedly  trod  upon  these
Rusty  brown  leaves,
Scattering, scattering   are
Those    leaves  yet  gathering
Garnished   moments  in life
Once  upon  a  time  precious 
Moments   they  were
Golden   and  shining,
But  faded  by   Time’s   calumny.
I cannot  hum ‘  come  September’
I  look  up  to  see  the  fallen  kite
Clinging  upon  the  hinges  of
The   thin  barred  branches,
 It  fritters, tries  to  extricate ,
You  watch on  with  a  rug  
To  cover  slashed  self.

Who am I ?


Who     am   I?

 Who    am  I?
 A  lean,  lanky ,
Loose   jacketed,
 always    munching  
The   green  grass  of
  poetic   Imagination
undiluted, unspoiled ;
                                               
Tightening    the  grip 
Holy    and pure 
 The   thread   Eternal,
Gyrating    the   name
 Of   my   Mentor,
  springing like   sprinkles
Fresh   showers,

 Sachchidananda, The   Avatar is Eternal.
 Eternal  is  Sachchidananda .
In   the   vicious  escape   syndrome,
He   nullifies  the  vile   and vituperation,
Sachchidananda    is Eternal  Bliss,
If  only   you  give  total  surrender
To  His  Will  and  design and plan.                                                                                        
I drink the cup of HIS Bliss,
Avatar is Eternal for me.
