The length of a night
Can be measured
Only when it is spent
Without a partner
And
The length of a day
Can be measured
Only when it is spent
under a lockdown charter
Eight hours for work
Eight hours for recreation
And Eight for the rest
To arrive at it was difficult
without organization and unity
Salute to you everyone with full dignity
Happy labour day to everyone
She didn’t touch
her face.  

She keeps
her hands
on her books.

It’s been
many years.

She’s made
the world
book of records.

The girl who
will forever not
touch her face.

She’s too
busy reading.

She did not
have to
avoid her friends.

You can do a
google search.

Yet she’s not
there at all.

She existed
before the virus.

She sits by a butterfly
of bookcases.
Jack wanted to do something
but was unsure of the outcome

so had a back-up plan and
then was unsure of that too
so had a back-up plan 2
and then again had a back-up plan 3

In the quest of backing up the back-ups,
Jack forgot what he really wanted to do

Ultimately,
he was the Jack of all and the Master of none.

Back-up plans really put you into a turmoil but the harsh truth is that they are needed.
I think I found
how The Heaven smells;
like that of the
ripe and yellow mangoes.

Because mangoes are the best!
