grand festival

1.

the wind is prone to grand festival

if you cook your own food

by burning your hands

in the day time

at night

then you will be also eligible

for having a ticket  

this train will not stop at any station

then how would you get on board

why

then do jump in front of the wheel

the door gets open automatically

you would also be a companion

of that joy

your name will also come up

on the list of the blood donors

with blood there will also hang

pus and spew

the colonialists

with a black face

will wind up their indigo-factories

in the fire of the intellect

the undergarment will burn

there will come running

bolder and bitumen

the road is made

your lipstick will be

sometimes deep

sometimes light

tearing open the yellow afternoon

a storm will take birth

there will be no darkness

in the amloki-grove  

 

2.

the ship is scheduled to start

from jetty no 3

i come to stand on

platform no 13

when i get on board the carriage

standing near

it takes me and runs to a vast

run-way

there are the lines of

sweet briar

i do not feel the pain of detaching

from the soil

when i  am flying

through the smoothness of the lotus-leaf

i see a musk-deer was also running

in a parallel line

she stretches her hand

to take me

to the valley of her flesh

we are turning round and round

to enter into a volcano

and  the flow of its eruption

is carrying us towards a ever-snow land
