POETRY / October: An unfinished poem

Glamorous lightweight raindrops  from the October sky keep 

POETRY / Silence

A star fell on the ground in the windy night

POETRY / Republic of the dead

As if playing a game of chess / Still the world waits for the next dawn

POETRY / Birth of a poem

Hark! / Busy work of Hands

POETRY / Carpe diem

but i can't. i cannot be bothered to find / meaning behind the faults in my father's eyes

POETRY / My heart's longevity comes from my maa's magnifying kindness

Maa, you are an endless exhibition / of sweet-sour happiness

I heard they are changing the dictionary

When the streetlights flicker, think of every doe-eyed child that the city swallows

POETRY / Anger and other blessings

A walkway through the crystal-clear lies

Love is a law

For once, can love look like a Sunday morning; filled with warmth, calmness and motionless?

Macabre Bleats

wounded limbs heal faster, / than a wounded conscience

Lunatic Crow

Lacerating the unfortified,/ Picking at the flesh for bad blood to find

Of hills, lakes, and loss

Bury your feet where its green And when the air is thin you will see

Inside

She’s as real as my meandering/ As tangible as tinkering.
