  • after poetry
    after poetry ~
    is a state
    of remaining...
    a suspension
    in the wordless void
    it must be
    with all this jingle
    of unresolved emotions
    that fail to dissolve
    in the gush of gallons
    pumped by the heart
    after poetry~
    sounds like a silence
    feels like a numbness
    inhabiting the soul
    a protective shield
    for the residual vulnerability
    a fertile field
    ready to conceive a crop
    of love
    and a weed of letters
    again
    after poetry~
    a post-monsoon mulling
    over a steaming cup of tea
    a seaside reverie
    a sea-salt epiphany
    of another poem...
    after poetry~

  • poker
    Poker~
    All this sloppy work
    And a thousand imperfections
    That you find in every pore
    Of your being
    This cursing the genes
    The aching limbs
    The rebelling cells
    The colliding thoughts
    The conflicting actions
    The unreasonable
    And even the unmentionable
    Why fret
    Really why fret
    The inconsequential stuff
    When one day
    Time will realise
    It can’t keep up
    With your infinite grace
    Light won’t be able to match
    Your brilliant radiance
    When one day
    You will throw away
    These old rags
    And tags
    Dive deep into the river
    Of self
    And sit down to play
    Strip poker with God
    (At the same table!)
    And as you deal the cards
    She will sit
    With her beautiful
    Blessing hands
    Under her chin
    Beaming with pride
    That you made it!
