A love body
This is my body
A man’s body
For a woman, next to you all over —–
I would like to build a castle for you, my darling
I would like to live in you for ever and ever
But nothing can I make that proves I be for you
I have no speech to express
I have no hand to touch
I have no mouth to kiss
I have no way to move towards you
But I see every item of every wonder
that hangs me with the string of love
I move, my body says ‘I love you, my darling and all —‘.
Jam-pack
Ours is a life, a jam prone journey
Every moment we are lagging in a certain place
One after another, this or that, here and there
A shabby marshy bog looks not so soothing
Always going on a play of shooting
I am a fearful man, now more feared
All seem to be stopped and fixed in one place and time
I bite my tongue but there no blood comes out from that
At once I pay heed to my beats whether I alive or not
A Moorish land clogs to move forward
The engines are to stand still before our gray eyes
No result comes out for this stagnant muddy journey.
I find myself
Feathers are sprouting from her
Only head and mouth left to grow
Whole body is covered with wings
On the crystal water light
Reflects as soft as moonlit night
She takes her step in dancing mode
Her glittering eyes, the sound of rings
Hides me to the surprise, a blessing home
I try to find myself my destination
Towards the end of my whole journey
I discover myself in a fairy land of white feathers.
A Dog’s Cry
It was a heart breaking cry I heard last night
I was in deep sleep but suddendly a sound of cry
that woke me up
I was startled to hear the missing cry
I tried to make out the rolling sound
but I couldn’t find any more
It seemed to be a woman who lost her dear
and was breaking the heart watering the eyes
rolling down to the ground
over night after night
It was a time of sound sleep
but what I heard I could not catch any more
the whole night and my heart also
waves with the dog’s voice
This was a sound stuck me to
the hundreds and thousands of cries.
Leaving Me Alone
What is creed or what is greed
Would not like to read
Its my creel I bought
So many fresh fishes are collected
Would you like to get one?
You say, ‘yes, I need only one’
Then at once a big slap on the face
‘go away from here and never try to back’
Its my world to exist, only my —-
‘Go to the shore and enact your crank-shaft
Start your day with new speed’
Leaving me alone ‘go away all the evil spirits’
All the items of good and drink
consumed by day and night.
