At a desk, coffee sachets rest.
Long-life milk harbours
white dreams of expiry.
Shuffling in his forgetful nest
a grey man blinks
at the intruding light.

Americo, do you remember
your antique power,
that opened like a rose
on the walls of Hiroshima?

Hello.
Don't
Be
Afraid.
It
Will
Be
okay.
I know this for a fact.
My
logic
is
a
little
bit
cracked.
I
Promise.
I won't leave you.
No side of you could push me away.
No truth.
No fact.
You
Are
Stuck
With
Me.
unless you push me away

Why does the mind
Keep thinking always?
Often it is bright hopes
But more often
tangled in dark thoughts.

Sometimes it's fear,
At times  it's courage
And a lot it wanders
afar to unseen land
across untouched sand !

dominance of thoughts
Always on mind, never calm
Why? Sometimes it’s work
Every so often it’s home,
When will this endless
Chatter of thoughts cease?

“Meditate”  I hear  for “Oh God,”
With eyes closed, focus set
I try to still the storm within
And yet A train of thoughts
Rushes on , nonstop…!

With tranquility’s golden ray
war within ceases- mastering the art  
to control the flow of  thoughts
And now mind is clear…!
But for how long?
