Hello Poetry (Tribute)
Aditya Roy Nov 2018
If you are universal space
Had the stones and still rocks
Float aimlessly
Like you
I'd be on the dark side of the Moon
Watching the catcher in the rye comets
Keep their light
They'd throw themselves
Upon me, floating
Ice melts away into
Into a Catch-22 light

If you kept
Jupiter in the rings
Of space
It'll wring an asteroid belt

Throwing me and the asteroids
Of my life and my circles
That make up my friends
Rocky in the black holes
At the end of it timeless
Planets
Full of dirt
Like Earth and it's future in
a vacuous vacuum
Keeping my shores
And the dust off
My desultory
Folks
Bye poetry
Without rhyme
But with reason
"We are um an advanced species monkeys on this minor planet on this very average star"-Stephen Hawking

A fighter from
India
But I can't my way to the other side of the border

Ponder For Lydia
Aditya Roy Nov 2018
Keeps my emotions on her
In her hair
Of her body,
Closer to her *****
Reminds me of the monsoon

Virility
Aditya Roy Nov 2018
I was lying
With the paper thin frame
Wheatish paper collecting
around the model
Of the statuette
That was muse
For my amusement
My talents in the frozen disguise
Cemented clay
"I'm feeling mighty lonesome"
Nov 2018 · 91
Velleity
Aditya Roy Nov 2018
Keeps me alive in the
Empire of the sun
Staying with the sands of time
That seems like golden gossamer
Has caught on to the hourglass
On the other-side of life
Is the woman in red
With fire eyes and jewels of virtues
Eyeing your vices
"The yellow fog that rubs its back on window panes"- T.S. Elliot

The Imperfect Circle
Aditya Roy Nov 2018
Keeps me
Reviled
Vicious cycle
Of Understanding
Of which I lack

Fire and Ice
Aditya Roy Nov 2018
Do you dream
Of places under
Bridges
Where hail
Lingering
Keeps you warm
Like
fire and ice

Word Porn

I can't fight
But I seem to grind

River of Reeds
Aditya Roy Nov 2018
Even though you can't fly
You can still dream
About the sweaters that
Your family bought you
Or easily think
about the grandmother
Who brought you up
With clothes together
And with innocence
You say goodbye to your
Clothes and your home
And you're going places
as your honor
leaves in the straits of decision
But it is pride pure
Pure isn't it
However, we go down the
Worst roads
And come back the best paths
Hope that the old geezer
Goads
God the hermit
God the one waiting for you back stage
Keeping an eye on your performance
Keeping away all the strangers
You meet strangers
Through God

Drowns With Easily
Aditya Roy Nov 2018
Foaming skies
With thunderstorm
Keeping the water in the warm
Like the tresses of tearing souls
Keel with my tightness of my
Home, I guess I'm crushed
Yeah, I have some money
But I'm broke
And the government
And wagers
wades through the sea
Where?
Throw your duties
And responsibilities
Like a key at the bottom of the sea
Senile decay keeps the trees from growing
Money
Pollution is  ashore
Explain my exploration
Money ,you, brought me
Here to wants
But you taught me to need
You bought the needy
with the paper currency
Of the rich economy
Seems like paper is poetry

Circadian Kisses
Aditya Roy Nov 2018
When in need
I almost leave
My heart's in the poorest place

But leaves breeze by
Went away with flying feelings
Re-entering my greed

Settle less for a nettle in the shade
Keeps the tamarind colored faces
In saffron streets
I'm trading love for a hopeless deal

Keep my heart
from leaving
Just to understand
It is just the rock
That keeps my veins and arteries
Alive

When I'm bleeding
My hearts remembers
Memories keep people alive

Demeter the Dissenter
Aditya Roy Nov 2018
Sender's search for grain
Demeter's semester of scintillation
Of silverware
On the table
Dining for two
The reflection in the knives
Too?
A lonelier glare keeps her
In the view of my stare
When I find the deer among dragons
In the spectral leer
Head-full of facile fantasy
Mead in her brown glass
Blue blood-bad blood
Broken heart
Doe running
Easier in than out
A sprightly dash
Like burgundy brings a smile
Her garbed lipstick
Full of vamped veritaserum
With a mindful of cultured curiosity
I filter out her secrets
In the question of ad quorum
Of my justice
That is my fiction
That is my end
Of my imagination
Harboring my death
In the clasping hands
Of winsome women with schemes
So lithe
Feeling solace
In nothing but a heartbreak
Love is the rose
You just got to
Let it grow
For example the Zeitgeist in the 70s was love everyone (man). 50s post war euphoria... etc

Deletion of the Euphoric
Aditya Roy Nov 2018
When's world's asleep
Like bare innocence
When the question's run deep
Barely innocent
The world dreams of leaps
Innocently bared
Of its heaps
Nov 2018 · 83
God Kept His Equality
Aditya Roy Nov 2018
The ringing drums
Keep the bells
Of the salvation
Tolling in the temple
Of fog

Time Out
Aditya Roy Nov 2018
time's a sphere
It stays on both sides
Of the life I lead

Blizzard
Aditya Roy Nov 2018
I am in love
With my loving
Someone with the love of the world
Seems like love's a silly word in the yellow snow

Lighting Cities
Aditya Roy Nov 2018
The heat
Of the curiosity
Comes as it
Closets luminosity

Never the same place
Aditya Roy Nov 2018
When he says
In weeks come
complimenting
As you stand by me
My strength
In weeks to come
Weakens to reveal
A naked soul

Well Understood
Aditya Roy Nov 2018
Weirdness
Laughs in her

As she is weird
As she can be

Odd isn't it,
Awkwardness

time keeps freezing
In my hands

My palms stay cold
Feeling the heat of the night
Of sensual calm

Time passes away
Awkwardness keeps the weirdness
Both say, "hey, beautiful."
Both in love. Stay...
Nov 2018 · 87
Apologizing
Aditya Roy Nov 2018
The singed clothes
Keep the stains
In a homelier place
Close to my stars
Covered body
Of thy mother Earth
"Who's she?" said Tom, indeed
She was my birth
My rebirth
My courageous laughter
Peaceful mirth
Peace on Earth

Spare Sundry
Aditya Roy Nov 2018
Pinching the knees
Of my lady
I love her with an affection
I learned
I loved through nurtured
Understanding
That kept me awake
Like the books
Helping me dream
Now
Dreaming about her
Her books
Keep me alive
Oh, Christina Rossetti
I keep you in contingency

Icily Broken In Fire
Aditya Roy Nov 2018
High profile society
Keeps me in the fray
Of living with
the making of time
A simple prayer
As cool as the game gets
Trying my moves in every way
I guessed my hopes
For life
Are icily broken in the fire
That burns
Nov 2018 · 267
Managed Means
Aditya Roy Nov 2018

Bringing his art

Clocks With Contact
Aditya Roy Nov 2018
Caressing the rain
Addressing the waters
That keep these streams
Off the weight of love
Keepsake these dreams afloat
Hope stirred a cloud
A cotton candy
A dream of
Sweetness
Of possessions
I'm wearing my attire
Like you are mine
"Love is a serious mental disease"-Plato
Nov 2018 · 48
Poetry Fire
Aditya Roy Nov 2018
What hides behind her smile
That helps that cheer
Keeps me beguiled
The blue of the sky
Shows me when the crimson
IN the first
winter
Wintry; comes the snow
Keeping the flakes, how I don't
Know
Learning through Persian
Thoughts express words
I can't comprehend
Till the end
"Stop, and say hello"-The Beatles
Finding ways to stay awake. Hoping the signs keep the lights off their feet. Karma is a scene of not knowing how to make the movie.

Further Than Squall
Aditya Roy Nov 2018
You came with the wind
So fast
The words were slower

Aditya Roy Nov 2018
For tea
Parties
The light
Of the lost
Lies in the waiting
For a fresh drink
Other than the namely
crowd
Bringing conversation
To its natural sound
Nov 2018 · 221
Scylla And Charbydis
Aditya Roy Nov 2018
Rocks on the ocean
Bring the water
To hold its
Faltering heart
At the center of a storm
White as fear
After being lost from
So afar
"I'm lost, waiting to be found"-Anonymous
Nov 2018 · 53
Rare is warmth
Aditya Roy Nov 2018
I wonder what this lady's
Likes
On the Inside
To match the sunrise
The very match to the disco lights
Keeping the legs of the table-top
Looking naked in a
Dressing gown
Keeping the lights
A lot of lights
For a town
Inside her palms
On her *******
As she falls from my eyes
In the love underneath
In keeping with the people
listening
"Everything that drowns keeps me alive" says old blood.

Notebook Of The Young
Aditya Roy Nov 2018
Singing in the dead night
Keepin the flight
Of the wasted time
Seems like the mine
Of gold
Never shines
Unless a golden raven
Flying across the red moon
Feels free across the dark blue
Nov 2018 · 52
Tome of Blues
Aditya Roy Nov 2018
Here lies
The epitaph
the statement
Of the dying
Meaning
Brimming life
With philosophy
It seems I bring
Living
Towards the dreaming
That accompanies the lifeless
Doors, swaying unfeeling
The empty sky
His witness

My friend
“Each day I lacerated myself thinking on her, but I didn't go back.”
Nov 2018 · 97
Bleak Honesty
Aditya Roy Nov 2018
I don't know why you
Walk behind
With a stick
To hit me on the head
Instead you could've strayed
From the way
Paving the way
For the mumbo-jumbo
To keep me in rubble
Of the political mumble
"And in the end, the love you take is equal to the love you make."-Paul Mccartney

Voluminous Salvo
Aditya Roy Nov 2018
Finally,
A chance
Though
Through
The instincts that made
Me
And Enemies
To Prove our resistance
A resistance
That was formed on peaceful riot
And looking at the bigger picture
Critics of social commentary said
Riots never seemed more ******
And blown out of proportion

And leave

Piety For Society
Aditya Roy Nov 2018
The contemporary times
The early watch
On the ethics
Of society
The toughest love
The easiest to
Lose to piety
Of society
The education doesn't understand
The ill-informed citizens
Losing to conformism
Of society
The years go
With fears
Losing our innocence
The hunger for achieving
Comes from dreaming
About working
For it
"Stay hungry, stay foolish"-Steve Jobs
Nov 2018 · 47
Viva La Cuisine
Aditya Roy Nov 2018
The pasta cooked
With the red tomatoes
The barley grain
Tastes rustic, relishing
The garlic bread
Says the cheese
tastes nice
But I prefer, a drink of wine
With a plate next to human fingers
"The guitar is easiest instrument, the hardest instrument to play well"-Andres Segovia

Inspires Me
Aditya Roy Nov 2018
Placing my movies within
the sun setting
the hills alive
but the music
keeps it's shores on the
valley
As it flows like lakes of meaning
My reflection of children
Keeps my innocence
In the waters of solace
selfless
Lively but vivacious
She's the ******* my mind
So, hey
When I see that whirl
In the ripples of water
I see that woman of my life
"Those substances put in touch with the spirits. Of the creator and creative impulse that drives your music mad. Of the psychedelic planet"

Blues Hallucinogen
Aditya Roy Nov 2018
Treading between the leaves
Myopically stricken off the record
Keeps me coursing on the fallen leaves
Golden, brown, yellow, orange
As the height of my captivating self
Comes up with the peaceful
Suicide, orange is the new black
Of living half-conscious through memories unknown
Beknownst tripping or hallucinating
On a brimming hallucinogen, die inside or unbeing
Within the happy recess, we aren't able to say something about the same karma
The king can do anything if he can carry the humor
Spring can finally be full of mist, everything is still
"I am the lizard king I can do anything"-Jim Morrison
Nov 2018 · 72
Hazy and Fuzzy
Aditya Roy Nov 2018
Take me home
Keep me from the
Moon
As it lays on it's *******
Amidst the stars and the mist
Covering
The Crescent smile
Hazy and fuzzy

Nov 2018 · 67
Smoking Sun
Aditya Roy Nov 2018
The light of the day
Keeps the sunshine
In the days brink
and as the dawn breaks
My weight of redemption
Gets more bearable
As I get higher
With the smoking Sun
"There are things known and thing unknown and inbetween are the doors"-Jim Morrison
Nov 2018 · 44
Poison
Aditya Roy Nov 2018
I loved my dreams
More than the sunshine
Kept me alive in the wake of the night
The time at the time
Of the rhyme
Without reason
Of the light of light
Reminded the glowing lamps
That floated brilliantly
In the dark sky
In the raucous surroundings
of the colonies
Be Hospitable to the dogs
Of society
Somehow the noise
Comes out sweeter
When there's less color and more smoke
And smells stronger
Happy Diwali :D
Nov 2018 · 58
Pushed Out Of School
Aditya Roy Nov 2018
No wonder I couldn't cry
My fears
Kept away the weight
Of my peers
And I would cry in anger
And have blind resentment
"None but ourselves can free our minds"-Bob Marley
Aditya Roy Nov 2018
Somehow I remember
I tried to place
My weight on my friends
Kept them in the embers
Rather than the flames
Of cheer and camaraderie

That kept the revolution alive
The reggae fellas and the tanks alike
Following the beat
With the rhythm of a nation
And the hymn of a weekend's peace

A peaceful sleep on Sunday
'Cause we Christian still got school
Yo!
One good thing about music, when it hits you, you feel no pain- Bob Marley
Nov 2018 · 47
Getting Robbed

Shiraz
Aditya Roy Nov 2018
The tempest of the wine
That keeps me drunk
Thou art keep me drowning with
My breathing
With bliss
Seriously lacking in moral fiber.
