The Spark
Cut open that wound, scarred and charred. The gush of blood — even then, still runs red. I am what I am, monologue of a rogue. The class act he holds bears no shape, true to his soul. Demons of the past laid webs so vast. In rest or in war, they mock this mind when it loses track. The fear of being torn — in fine lines it was told. Worn as if it were norm, like an autumn tree in storm. The player got played; the trickster on stage whispered, “Stay clear of the sage who veers your rage.” Every breath a gasp, each thought a task. Forgotten smiles gave birth to a grin, dark and stark. And the thought it left — of a truer self — spilled blood on heavy‑laden hands, to rise from sunken sand. —Quiet Poet

Monologue of a Rogue
A kind-hearted soul, in a whirlwind he strolled, locked in a cell— its keys never withheld. The cage set him free with a passage that read: “You have passed the stage where you could flee.” The baggage of hope strapped onto his back, stuffed with the shreds of laughter and grief. Under its weight wings lost their hold— too weak to take off, too weary to back off. At the edge of the cliff he stands—stranded, not still; the depth of the reef stirs no thrill—only grief. He mustered some strength to get off this trench, slit out a thought— that gathered great length. He entered that space where darkness once grew— “A stroke of a ray could puncture it through.” A sudden gush of light fell straight on the wrap, tied to a yacht sailing for new shores. To test waters anew, with the cage out of view, I stepped onto the barge— like a baron off to his land

The Cage That Set Him Free
The world we live in has borders we know. The neighbour we call— some bear-hug, some choke. Elevate your realms; we are all one, so we were told. Platforms were raised in hangars and ports; conniving hands, never old. Most of them— it isn’t Nirvana, the light they hold. The pompous perverts, in ludicrous lust, longed for control

Borders of Control
Donned was the night sky with twinkling stars. Dawn came, its eye plunged in sirens of war. A fleet of birds that flew from Middle East and West— summoned like kites, chirping back to its nest. The eggs of chaste, in haste, gave birth to flames The high-rise storeys and hyped-up stories. Lest we forget the mongers in power who unleashed this terror to preserve their cover. This trembling hour— the coming hour— the pendulum stalled, its hands now slain.
