These memories beat inside me
like a second heart, refusing to
wipe off from the screen​of time
and space.

On the life bed I stir and memories
rise out like buzz of flies from ugly
rotten carcass.

These memories are worst than bullets as they fly with loquacious
indifference and propensity and
hitting in ferocious speed, deadlier
than death.

At  times it's a black night punching with cruelty. Other times it's a white night occupying my space. I never forget the rainbows that ravenously came to eat up the dark nights.

These memories are of peakcock
significance and at times they are
of wolves​ significance.

Burden of memories! Burden of history! Why coming without my permission and afflicting like the ancient Egyptian plagues?
