Indian "I know I shall meet my fate somewhere among the clouds above; those that I fight, I do not hate - those that I guard, I do not love." Yeats, WB
God as a naked fabric, a forceful self... lay today in the morning dew with love amidst and over me, on the wet barren land, between the moist deep and the green road the yellow petals, their leaves and twigs stood witness to the Love we made... torn with relief, I devoured the pain but, there was no desire in the pleasure She gave like hollow imprints of ***** uncertain steps on moving sands and loss waters.... ...a mute witness, it was then that I saw, either God was a She or I was a he... I chose the latter and allowed Her to be.

On a wet uncertain dream at the beach...
I reach for an empty bride deep unto myself through glass mirror walls, serenading waves and, palm in palm we ballet the yellow skies, mesmerizing the earth. An intense love affair this...

Love Affair
there was a girl today who sat by me on a fence and watched the sun and the clouds roll by, the brightly colored rings all the things that make me fly.   We remained together until darkness fell reminiscing the journeys she's been and the strange lands that she's seen, her long lost sighs and, what lie beyond those eyes.   ..when she left i prayed in my lonely blues, that one day i will know her name, who she was, from where she came - was she from my summer dreams? swept here by some timeless winds.. or, did she emerge from those myriad stars? carrying some of their myriad hues.. May it be, that one day I will see, who she was, from where she came .... [incomplete :-) ]

May It be
I wish for this night to prolong beyond the dawn that (gingerly) awaits, and the uncertain future that it brings along. I wish for this night to prolong as we set sail on joyous winds your caressing words like pearls that adorn cheerful strings. .... There are myriad distances yet we re-unite with meaningless conversations on the soulful palette of this starry night. O' Beloved, I wish for this night to prolong beyond the time, when we may have to leave a time I pray will truly never come and…. hope that it will never have to be me."

To be, Never to be
A rain shatters the silent peace of the dark blue Yamuna... flowing guilelessly on its own accord by the eroded banks of time... with waters that rise and fall, and move along in silent obedience. In the melancholuous rain, drown the voices of those that have sinned voices of wet Lovers that echoed through time... greener pastures and parched blues.... men who left their footprints in the soft sands of an immense depth ..& emerged with a part of the river, that today carries their sins... what kind of affection is this O'Yamuna.. abathed in the sins of our time, yet you flow so guilelessly..

What kind of affection is this..
Lay beside me And hold my breathless stare Therein lies a silence I seldom share

Love, Rarely
On a grey asphalt midwest road lay a terrible place to weep and moan.. where white ***** rain trickles low on poison ivies and blurry saxophones.. ..with unified yellow lights that neither blink nor stare unending love the throbbing blue road and metal statues whose souls lay bare. The silent night gathered all even my brown pain and the terrible fall what remained was none-so-less threshed and withered like those leaves of green.. ..empty thoughts, silent stills, and wanderlings, with dreamy quills. Broken i lay, with those captured skies.. flashes of lightning empty gazes and embittered souls painful verses of a poets play are those terrible blue dreams, they say.

Hurt
A spaceless canvas of a beautiful dream Spaces to see and spaces to dream Myriad and countless in thousands they seem; Distanced thoughts of an uncertain kind.. The swift strokes of a finer self A breast of pain and the womb of death.. The Rampant search of a timeless man, The Mystique brilliance of a madder dream.. Clawing to lose a searchless path The Maya of me and the Maya of death Spaces and spaces myriad they seem To stand alone and To view apart An un-poisoned brightness of a fewer whole froth-less waves of a mid-life's depth kindled flames, a rocking boat Spaces and spaces to me they seem

Pieces of an eclectic dream
Herein lies the cycle of this existence. Replete with everyday banalities - placid and meaningless - the menials of survival give away almost suddenly, and I find myself plunged into the depths of an unperturbed silence... where a voice within resounds the Om. A rage drives me to divest all falsifications.. those sensuous pleasures and miserable burdens, insecurities and frustrations.. and all that exists/acts in a true sense of transience. I feel calm again - cleansed and breathless on the shores of this Reality. But alas!, the Silence fades.. slowly and steadily the noises of the world begin to seep in, like the first rays of sunshine after a long wintrous slumber. Crests and troughs, this life of mine. A reckless indifference grips my heart; I exist, unbeknown of whether I am a benign Observer or the perverse Experiment, or evenly both.

I exist.
some times I pray to the Winds, to blow away my pains and lies along with the myriad clouds from my turbid skies and carry me like mist from the light blue seas to spirits that mingle in an unknown world where the sky is the centre of a yellow marigold take me to spaces that dissolve in a dream unknown take me there Oh, Winds, i plead and moan
