A heartbreak 

Be my guest
I'll serve you tea

But don't make yourself at home.

Bikhre se hai hum
Humse kaise miloge gale
Barbaadi ka hai mausam
Tumse baatein hai bas phizool ki

Barsaat ki tarah
Bas abhi ruk jayengi.





Ideally, I should not be idle
I dream, I dwell, I-dull.

My mind is a sea of vomit
To drown in it?
or to swim in it?
My mind is an endless sea of vomit.


01 September 2014



Am I saving my words
for later,
or
Am I saving the silence 
that's here?




29 August 2014



The door latched
How come?

A door mat
W.E.L.C.O.M.E.

 

21 August 2014



A narrow road

Are you the lead,
or are you the load?



I-Run


A fresh end
A dead start

By now, beheading
is by-heart

Twinkling friends
A sun bath

Forged strength
and galvanized casts

Magnetized rents
A rusted pin

drop of silence is all i ask



30 June 2014



To scatter like light 
or
To free-fall like dust?


27 June 2014



Take me away 
from my laughter
Take me away 
from plans for day-after
 Take me to the
Reminders of the Forgotten

Only plucked flowers blossom
In my garden.

Join Me for High Tea


Fevers and Fractures
dance enraptured

Stand up comedy
does drunk Equilibrium

Escape is held hostage

Appetite killed home

With Misery on the leash
Madness comes for free

But ,

In plastered times



I am sipping tea.




13 April 2014



A blunt knife
A bored aquaguard
Dishes unwashed
Contem-plate
Stale Milk
A wall lizard
A callous fridge
in vegetative state


“Whats cooking?”
Asked the thermos flask

Sweaty nights
this summer

I think of 
what may come and

Shiver.





Kill It Before It Lays Eggs


Tonight,

My poetic rant
is a silent protest.

Tomorrow,

This infant,
will speak your language.

Lists within listings
disguise unemployment
Strike-throughs 
are on a strike
Bullets and numbering
don't ring a bell


the phone doesn't ring 
as well

Happiness That Haunts


The kind of happiness, that haunts
Has possessed me through giggles
Stranger, my mourning soul
Has now openly embraced you


My happiness loves to taunt
With eyes that glow Like the devil
Indifferent to cries
To mice, To ties, To crisis


The kind of happiness, that haunts
I’m afraid to face, your absence
because you give me the thoughts
That makes my life
Verse!



Sometimes re-verse
