It flickers-
Dissolves all the world into water
And makes salt in the sun.
It flickers-
Meets its aged spirit of understanding
Long ago! abondoned or suspended in the vacuum.
It flickers-
Finds the king Fisher, still, fishing
and repenting over his loss of virility.
It flickers -
Makes all Philosophies its mistresses
And ravishes them one by one..
When it does not flicker
It remains dissolved in myths and illusions ...

Excerpt From the poem " THE TOWER OF BABEL"
This thunder and contaminated sky-
Are we dying or left behind?
...Again clutch at the towerside
Like mulching leaves,Abusing
Vacuumed words- meaning denied.
****
Among us attack,
Among us die, Among us try to decode
And send proofs,Among us allege and deny.
Yet, We don't understand what we do
We are a game or a part of game
...I don't know!
****
You know ! once I walked alone in the garden
Some Voice made me turn back
No one -
Certainly none was there.
But said my own self -
"It was I to befool you, fool!"
****

MODERN HAMLET -THE LAST PHASE
This evening longs to meet me.
In her dusky countenance,
Conceals a maelstrom of my own darkness.
And I, a docile child, spreading arms,
Hoping to survive or metamorphosed.
Hazardous journey now
Palpitates me not-
What havoc the roaring store in?
I've given no thought.
How many centuries have died undone?
My procrastination
Even to take a barbiturate
-To have a wink; thinking,
This sixty - watt bulb or electric tube
May not get fused.
(I checked everything meticulously.)
How many centuries have died undone?
While listening to the music,
With tears in eyes -
Fighting some imaginative battles of life,
The pillow under the head
Gets wet..and a dream, after defeating me,
To other world of impossible, flies.
I was to lock the Pandora Box.
Only didn't know its place…
but every room and every corner had a sunlit sky
Then it opened my third eye
And you know !!!
'Every sun has to die !'
Why not to put out this light
And to see myself in centre of my own light…
Thus, I've reached the box.
It's therefore, I say -
Time always chased me
Barefeet and bareheaded
Only this time arrested… after a long strife.
To be ready and waiting with open arms
Hoping to survive or metamorphosed or de-armed.
For death ,I care not
It will die if I do
It will never die …if I'm undone.
