The thoughts of a writer
can be a terrific
and terrible chasm,
simultaneously.
They spring from one precipice
to another,
dangerously, no-
longingly
peering over the edge,
ready to bound
head-first
towards the next
afflatus.

बेहद ख़तरनाक कविता यशु जान  

सपना देखकर अचानक उठना,
है बेहद ख़तरनाक,
ग़लती ना होते हुए भी झुकना,
है बेहद ख़तरनाक,
दुश्मन के मुँह पे हंसना,
है बेहद ख़तरनाक
बैठे - बैठे ही थकना,
है बेहद ख़तरनाक
पुलिस को देखकर छुपना,
है बेहद ख़तरनाक,
है बेहद ख़तरनाक

नेवले का सांप से सामना,
है बेहद ख़तरनाक,
दुश्मन के दुश्मन का हाथ थामना,
है बेहद ख़तरनाक,
सरकार के साथ यारी,
है बेहद ख़तरनाक
और लाइलाज बीमारी,
है बेहद ख़तरनाक,
चलते - चलते एकदम रुकना,
है बेहद ख़तरनाक,
सपना देखकर अचानक उठना,
है बेहद ख़तरनाक

रूह का बेहद तड़पना,
है बेहद ख़तरनाक,
किसी की याद में भटकना,
है बेहद ख़तरनाक,
रिश्ता नया बनाना,
है बेहद ख़तरनाक
फ़िर निभा ना पाना,
है बेहद ख़तरनाक,
अजनबी का घर में घुसना,
है बेहद ख़तरनाक,
सपना देखकर अचानक उठना,
है बेहद ख़तरनाक

इज़्ज़त को ताश मानना,
है बेहद ख़तरनाक
ख़ुद को बूज़दिल जानना,
है बेहद ख़तरनाक,
यार को घर बुलाना,
है बेहद ख़तरनाक,
घर का सदस्य बनाना,
है ख़तरनाक,
यशु जान ग़ुरबत में ठुकना,
है बेहद ख़तरनाक,
सपना देखकर अचानक उठना,
है बेहद ख़तरनाक,
ग़लती ना होते हुए भी झुकना,
है बेहद ख़तरनाक

Heart made of ice
Mind made of stone
His halo slowly fading
His wings slowly darkening

Skin made of satin
Hair made of cotton
His looks could leave a woman entranced
His touch could leave a woman poisoned

Careful when falling for this fallen angel
He's nothing but a dangerous devil
Under all that angelic glamour
Lies a wolf in dog's fur

Tricks could be dangerous
if it was done
by the wrong people

Disguised in pretty lips
and polished words
they were trained to manipulate

Be careful not to get caught
in their petty tricks
that are disguised in fancy lies

So it is best
to think before you absorb
and to have a mind of your own

gold in your hair,
denim on floor,
mistakes in bed,
bathing in each
other’s cologne,
i trace the freckles
on your back,
no more time to
talk, time has
hopped on a Cadillac,
purple becomes
my new skin tone,
one seal breaks
and now im in the
lost virtues zone,
my name becomes
your only vocab,
shortly after
I had it unwrap.

Comes in many forms
From Harmless to dangerous
Sometimes even death

a black beverage in front of me
alarming
but at the same time
exciting

i know that it's dangerous
especially to me
but i drink it anyways
in one go

and now i'm crying
black
you made me cry
i knew it would happen
I always let the toxic people into my life. I know I shouldn't, but I can't help it. And in the end, they destroy me. I knew it would happen.

the job of the artist
is to be
luminous and dangerous

luminous to others
by being
dangerous to themselves

when the words are ripped from the chest,
atmosphere disbursed by the body’s projectile messes,
starburst fireworks,
luminous and dangerous,
luminating the shared night,
laminating your truths,
in poems disguised


and so the job,
our work,
begins

i kept those monsters locked in a cage,
so they couldn't get out.
but hell,
i didn't know caging my heart cost me a lot.
Quetta Rose Mar 2019
Her voice was lamenting and sweet,
full of sugar and pomegranate seeds.
Her eyes were dark and bright like the night sky,
could've sworn I seen stars.
She was beautiful in all ways someone can be,
But, she had a soul so dark it smothered all light.
Despite that fact, I was still in love,
The devil was once God's favorite angel—She was the fallen angel from my heaven.
