Dal Lake I float on Dal Lake Suspended between the thick soupy crisp air of soldiers water lilies, Kashmiri bread and the Muslim prayers that penetrate the hardness of war chanting Allah Bismallah Floating Islam Holy words drenching the air Drenching the green cloth of Hindu soldiers Sliding down the cool metal of a rifle 9 years of war 1,000 houseboats lie empty in the Himalayan fog Intricately carved furniture Thick with dust and the powder of blood and bullets Himalayan silhouette etched black against the song of lotus gatherers Foggy voices like cloud of moon Lotus lake Gray of war and desperation Children beg 1 rupee 1 rupee 1 rupee Endless monologue Parched like lotus shaped paddle They throw flowers to me endlessly I throw them back endlessly Time passes slowly like smoke on a lizard’s tail trailing in the thick, rancid air of burning meat and maple leaves Like a shikara moving over the glass of Kashmir The sound of a dozen Bangees floating over the water Hollow, solemn and mournful Echoing against the hardness of the surrounding mountains The circle of Himalayas Like a womb around the prayers of Pachin In the middle of the lake I hear the call to prayer Azan Nemarz Suba Azan Nemarz Pashin Azan Nemarz Degar Azan Nemarz Sham Azan Nemarz Koftan From dawn till dusk Azan 4 mosques 4 singers 4 directions staggered by a breath like an imperfect echo Azan slips into the pockets of island soldiers Waters the impatience of soldiers on the shore Steals into the vacant eyes of soldiers in the Mosque They want to go home to their wives and children They want to leave the place of prayer, which is not theirs The place of prayer, which has seen death The place where God was pushed out In order to not see the killing To **** what they don’t see The place, which was no longer a refuge Outside Dal Lake turns to the color of red lentils cooking in a dented metal *** In the Shikara boat we eat dal and rice and throw scraps into the silver water where it washes up onto the ***** boots of a soldier I hear the dull gray click, click of his rifle as it touches the ground The prayers have ended

My Frankenstein monster erects in the dense night a soliloquies of remedies traced on pasted wall paper It bids faster as the kites fly high above the Himalayan feeding respect to the sun to radiate its vector rays It whispers of this world a spice of colours and patterns a windy dainty silky road wrapped with satanic ribbons As the masses gather on the poles to dance the mayday festival the pagan gods shake the monster their gold merry as the cloud chills The bonfire embers and trembles the palates vanish in the ashy wind the crowds grow in bonded unity the monster smiles in rhymed terms

The Beltane Seducing My Frankenstein Monster
In his dreams the Vally in the throes of efflorescence call out in a language heart alone understands; from the hanging bridge over Ganga, he views the ice-capped peaks, Vally's ***** extravagance and the river's turbulence. The river runs too deep, at times he finds, the currents treacherously strong, from the window of his *Ashram, the view is clear. She bathes naked, alone on a step submerged in water, eyes feast on her moonlit curves, the pleasures skin deep, camouflage the existential dilemmas ! he smiles In memory his Guru speaks:"Eat only those fruits that make one immortal" Yet another Himalayan journey in search of the fruit tree unknown It's too late to redefine, life and love when the avalanche thunders above on his lonesome path, every step uphill is fraught with slippery stones, one way leads to the top, to bathe in the light of  the star reaching down Some days end in too long nights, too cold, the sun shows up hesitant, her body has the warmth that reaches to his icy depths, a ****** alone could penetrate, but it still wouldn't melt Himalayan silence, chant of Ganga, the ghost of a ****** that follows him  like a faithful dog, are all these fragments of a dream or realities stringed together from many different planes?

A view from the hainging bridge across river Ganga*
Within this jungle, which is ours I ride the back of Thunder-cloud, my friend Around and through the thickets thick banyan trees & palm fruit fallen leaves Down muddy earthen paths until everything is green and shadows until inside its heart, the rain forest trees of this jungle are city buildings - tall and choir of fauna high and low do not fear to sing beneath our cathedral's shade In this kingdom of flora and ruby rich dirt belongs to thunder-cloud and dirt-poor me A Mowgli on his elephant, hollars ahead to any that hear "We are free!" Here, far from the whips' lashing, guns, away from the loud business of murderous money They who say that I am nothing in their eyes who abacus my worth with looks with upraising lust of wolves but I a free man, a simpleton for beloved (Earth) I am dark skinned Krishna on my steed of thunder-clouds A native son of brown & green wilderness caterwauling to the beyonds unknown Within our jungle, brother thunder, my elephant of deep clouds gray we are Mammoth and as wild as wide as open as free... with every step forward on this living journey we will take a peaceful kind of smile will only be what is written upon each lovely lovely face *(Within our jungles...we live simply without the Man's hate not today will I hunger, nor will I thirst fed on real wonder, drank clouds of Himalayan rain without a rupee to my name... on the back of thunder my gentle Ganesh - I have no one to blame.)*

MOWGLI ON THUNDER
Late spring when we first saw the house, with its back door a cave obscured behind those breaking waves of blue and white surge-foam of sweet blossom. Bees, pollen and petals made it difficult to weave a way in; and in the drench of sun-showers the water-falls of flowers purled. Summer slowed the fall to trickles. And since you’ve missed most of autumn, let me say the wisteria now is mostly air and grey cloud. The few curved spatulas of pods rattle like the wood-slat clackers of a ghost-dispersing wind chime, high against Himalayan grey.

An eagle flies high, beyond the mind's sky, above the purple dawn over the Himalayan snow white  it flies, soaring above the trident peak, where Shiva with Shakti dance to be one with the essence of all, in resonance with the cosmos.

The flight beyond *"Chidakasha"
Integration that we clamour for Disintegration we design for Unity in Diversity: India’s facet Diversity , disunity are in closet. No national spirit acts in rescue; No co-ordination glares unique. Vitiated Political Ambitions snarl At the stranded panicky people. The Himalayan chill frozen minds Eat , drink in star bars and mines. Father of the Nation Gandhiji weeps At Highway junctions in Idol forms. Harijans weep , Girijans weep, but None to keep promises highly put. In Legislature Canteen Primary needs Pitiably play shadow-dance; no deeds. Votes and Whiskey stirred black- horses Rush to mikes in spikes ; roar for votes!. Illiterate poor and injured minds again Ink : first- finger for a five year tension !

Idol Weeps
1. Eyes, eager fish, in deep Himalayan blue, splash and swim the ultramarine sky of the mind, gets color coordinated, in resonance wind from across the ranges, incessantly chant  guttural "Öm" gently spreads waves, that on ears, vibrate as music,divine our feet get liberated from mind's control,  the trek becomes us. 2. Eyes now, turn swifts, fly to the valley extending to horizon, teeming with flowers of every hue, profusion of orchids, rolling white clouds above,create *tantric patterns of grace, swirls, swoops,scoops, somersaults,the trek goes on. 3. Melting ice, fits well on the conical brown mountain tops, a white bodice, perfect cover for her lovely peaks, angular mounts gleam in the limitless avalanche of light, an impulse for benediction is palpable. 4. Simple folks of village, on the way side in flowing colorful dresses ***** tall poles festoons of bright colors, joyous prayer flags   flutter in wind proclaims festive spirit, they vigorously wave. 5. Now heart overwhelms, sings the paeans of a sky that changes it's face from blue to white and sometimes, a hue so bleak, deep gloom, on red brown earth, sun light prances around. 6. The grass bed then transforms quick, mind drinks the dense benediction peace brings that coils inside the soft blue waves, beating within and out 7. Himalayan blue has taken us in to it's embrace bird songs ring along the path of ancient sages, who went in to the forest abode to contemplate, never returned, became one with the hum of cosmos, they walk within us.

Endless icy expanse, inspires a wordless wisdom, Himalayan peaks, silent echoes of deep meditation. **A cold wind incessantly hums primeval "Om" Inside, a formless flower blooms, nectar overflows!**

Himalayan Ambrosia
The stars, with all their power, are falling like Himalayan roses. Tonight the marble moon is burning, mirroring the hazel flames in your eyes. Soon the twin shadows of Gemini will soar overhead. While the world unravels like a crimson dress, tell me the moment— the moment you knew life was good. Dust storms, spirits, shadows will bleed across the dawn. Inside this truck let me cradle your heart; beneath the darkness I’ll be your armor. Up the sleeves of our feelings, night no longer terrifies— cling to the hem of my words as streetlights spill over skin and memory. Oh, these shadows, shadows, shadows… I feel fear as fiercely as I feel the fire in your eyes, while the red sky drops like razor blades. Until we’re clothed in a single flame, tell me you belong to me. There is only this night: the marble moon in flames, stars collapsing around us. Turn the radio up—one last song— and let its blaze of sound meld perfectly with the fading.

The Hazel Flames
The gushing river through his interior landscape, runs very deep, this surging Ganga, glaciers feed, is one of Himalayan profligacy. Wouldn't stop, or deter a bit,on any eventuality; a mighty force it is. his beloved sea, was moved by this, swelled up to meet midway, merge.

Surge and seek; reach and merge
on a farflung corner of the world beyond the frosty Urals, past the Saharan desert yonder, and the Himalayan walls of ice, and then a little while longer, there you’ll find me sleeping. or if you would ride a comet and streak through the Atlantic, land on the East Coast, and head west some more ’till you arrive at the Western shore, find a seastar and befriend it. Then traverse seven horizons across the infinite Pacific, there you’ll find me resting. here beyond the furthest dream beyond the faintest clouds i stand on sandy seascapes. away from all the broken people with their broken frowns and towns. this is a land of smiles and sunny skies where darkness and death cannot harm the relentless light in the brown of everybody’s eyes. on a little archipelago of pearls suspended from the stars by strings like a toddler’s mobile as it swings, the heartbeats of London, Paris, New York, LA, or Rome: pictures in a fairytale book here at home. I am very very far away where all my life is an echo sounding in tropical sunsets: rosy and pink and sinking like a reverseblooming rose lighting up the Manila Skyline.

SHIVA (Bijoylakshmi Das) The silence of night scares you With its eerie thoughts Ever azar with doors wide open To give vent to unrestrained dreams, Never letting you to rise above The mundane laws of existence. Do you ever think of SHIVA The eternal principle of the Sublime? Sitting alone on the peaks of the Himalayan silence, Speaking to you in His divine muse- Of ineffable ecstasy. The body is not all. That obeys the physical laws, The mind is not all. That listens to odd yearnings. And the spirit too is not your limit. You have to go beyond Far beyond life's petty limitations To reach Truth, Consciousness and Bliss. SHIVA, the enlightened. Which translates human dialects Into an indefinable divine hieroglyphic. SHIVA, the Supreme Creates the Universe, Rules it too, Annihilates when Harmony loses its identity. The universal principle of Love Gets bewildered in empirical rules of earthly existence, And Spirit fails to rise above, SHIVA opens His Third Eye, In its piercing gaze All lights fade and The fugitive human mind finds no sojourn He warns you. Arise, awake To reach your goal Beyond the earthly ken. (Bijoylakshmi Das Haridwar)

I ask that you be heard, tossed about and dreamed of. It is your thoughts, my upset energies, and nightly turbulence. Sleep provokes night and life and darkness prevailing in us. When we wake up we are gone as our night precedes dawn It is always the other way, bottom up and spaces spread. At times we hear the police van’s shrieks, in night’s iron grill. I ask that you be heard, tossed about and dreamed of. It is not always the stick beating the road in rhythmic silence And olive-green overcoat with flapped pockets and heavy boots And six months old large-sized memories of a Himalayan home With black-lined large dove’s eyes flitting among coal fires Their smoke towering over the pines in snow-bound peaks. I ask that you be heard, tossed about and dreamed of. It is the turbulence we are speaking of, in the foggy sea we are Or on the peaks where everything is bound in fuzzy snow At the mountain passes where vehicles duly pass oiled by hot tea Or in the mist-filled airports where aircrafts do not take off Of politicians who decide mankind’s future in the apocalypse. I ask that you be heard, tossed about and dreamed of. It is my dreams as they were and the neighbor’s dreams In the straw-roof, in the banyan trees with glints in their eyes And much fine-powdered dust on their thick –coated leaves, In lonely watchmen’s houses on the bleak stony spaces And lonely watchmen keeping vigilant eyes on boulders Strewn in brown spaces and scraggy bushes with strange lizards. I ask that you be heard, tossed about and dreamed of. It is the towering tombs and the trees that enveloped them The children playing cricket in flying bats and stone stumps Outside the vaults where kings and queens lay dead for ages Their cold breath felt on the broken glass of Time’s windows. I ask that you, I and women play a game of kabaddi in the trees When it is still not dark enough in the minarets in the west And children are still hitting ***** visible in the green of the trees.

who would have thought i would become so obsessed with clean? not my mother, who’d nag me to pick up all the clothes scattered across my bedroom nearly every day of ninth grade. we rarely saw the floor. i’d sleep beneath books and laundry on my half-made bed. now i scrub dishes, scrub counters, scrub the floor at night because i can’t stand the thought of a ***** kitchen—little cockroaches scurrying in and out of pots and pans. my home smells of lavender oil, a soft mist, air cleansed by a pink-glowing himalayan salt lamp and plants in the living room. now i put things away in drawers, close doors of rooms that are the slightest bit messy. now i straighten books on the coffee table, set the remotes parallel to one another, everything must be in place. now i floss, wash my face every night, stare in the mirror and repeat i am clean, i am clean, i am clean. now i burn my skin in the shower, inhale the steam until my breathing is slow and my sinuses are clear. i am clean, i am clean, i am clean. now i fold the laundry, stack our clothes into two piles, his and mine. i make our bed, i organize our shoes by the door, i kiss the man i love goodnight. i am clean, i am clean, i am clean. i know what my father must think, i know he loses sleep, i know there are holes in his tongue where his teeth have made a home. i am clean, i am clean, i am clean. i know he wishes i still went to church, wishes my boyfriend believed in a god, wishes i was clean. i am clean, i am clean.

Revving up the engine of the gleaming funky machine before zooming around, gave her such an Adrenalin high, nonperil. The constant ****** no guy ever could promise, this act gives her. She is pleased for that moment, gets ready for the ****** rigmarole, the very next second. She gets jealous of her own story, ever heard of that? On the race course and the spread bed alike her ebullience creates tsunami waves,broke long standing records. When you run fast enough there comes a moment,when there is no record left to break! and the beds, you guessed right, all are broken, made redundant. And then the inevitable happens, she smells leaking gas, panics, freezes on the track, shuddering, switches off quickly the engine of her dream machine,her heartbeat, makes the final escape,spontaneously, without delay, decides to renounce worldly pleasures altogether, up to the Himalayas goes by foot, seeking that thing which in life she missed all along, Finds silver light's play on ice caps, and realize this: she was walking through a dark, dark  tunnel , of self-deception,"Affluenza" was indeed her affliction. The Himalayan snow cap, loomed large as an attraction, in her dreams once, now seemed less formidable, at arm's length, "What a Guru,who looked timelessly ancient, jokingly predicted  once, comes true here"she muses. Her trek upwards resumes with a vengeance.

Himalayan snow white
I gazed at thy icy peak, And something in you finally silenced this freak. Powerless and stunned, I sat down, Staring at your majestic white crown. Something like you, I never saw before, With your intensity you took me back to my core. Looking at you I began to wonder, How are you such a divine expression? And me, just a blunder. You said to me that I am failing to realize, What was being said by every man so wise. That I too am just you, we are no different, Me too, another divine expression, but with an ego and judgement. I dropped them and looked at all your snow, I realized to be one with you was to know. I began to melt, Like this, never before had I felt. We are all here by divine will, I missed it because unlike you, I was never still. I was fooled by them people, into thinking I am not enough, You drilled the truth into me, so beautiful, yet so tough. I sat there unaware of what was me and what was you, There was nothing left to know, nothing left to pursue. In your majesty, I realized mine, We were both equal expressions of the divine. Finally you silenced this freak, And I can never forget thy icy peak.

Bi polar bear bouncing up and down on a summer high one year Got to walk the wall in China before I wore those shirts an excuse to use/not to wear When I was getting perks And reminding me to stay in line how lucky that it is to get all of this for nothing more than just a Kremlin kiss Kathy's kissing in the Kremlin Chatting after she had tea And we're hiding from the KGB Kathy's kissing in the Kremlin And I went up to Alaska, the final frontier Found a tent to defrost in Antarctica Sunk to the bottom of the ocean floor Where it is all lit up and I rode the Himalayan Sky Sold the pictures to the book with yellow trim and Kathy's kissing in the Kremlin Flying there again. Kathy's kissing in the Kremlin Kissing in the Kremlin Kissing in the Kremlin

This is a song that I call I beat the mountain And it ends with I am dead I beat the mountain yessir I beat the mountain Don't just pretend that it hurts I beat the mountain dallas I beat the mountain I beat the mountain alice I beat the mountain I beat the mountain I beat the mountain There's a place in this world Where you can go to climb to heaven It's in the Himalayan Mountains in south, east, central asia It takes a week to walk to the mountain And one more week to reach the air And there is no air at the top And you freeze your face off there And so I walked to the mountain And I reached higher ev'ry day And I breathed in the air And took pictures of the mountain Now that mountain presents a challenge Says "Don't come near me if you dare" For I will slay you on this mountain I have before ; I will again Uh-Oh the challenge of that mountain The challenge in the air The challenge of that mountain The challenge of that mountain And I climbed the mountain Yes I did, I climbed the mountain I climbed the mountain I climbed the mountain You think the sun, when it hits your head That you're blinded or you're dead You think the sun, when it hits your head It warmed your head but, it didn't But I kept climbing, I kept ahead Going higher and higher, no more air But there's more mountain, so there It's all a joke, just on you, not all of humanity Most people know better and Stay away from the mountain It bites off your head Takes your fingers and toes And nose from you and leaves you dead Takes your brain, makes you delirious Makes you crazy in the brain, I'm serious So stay away from the mountain Stay away from the mountain Stay Away! Stay away from the mountain Stay Away! Stay away from the mountain Stay Away! Stay Away, Far Far Away! Cause I climbed up that mountain Yes I did, I climbed that majic mountain Yes I did, I climbed the mountain I'm full of dread 'cause I am dead

daughter of the mountain those fierce himalayan winds bring home the music of your tinkling anklets with each cat-like step you take i hear esoteric ragas neatly arranged forming musical treatises exalting your indescribable beauty and infinite greatness for now, i meditate on that space between these notes which is where i know you truly reside © 2019

I want to runaway, Far into the oceans. Into the abyss of waters, The unexplored depts of Undiscovered species of fish And devouring monsters. I want to runaway, Maybe to Africa in the forests. Where wolves, dogs and dragons roam. Make a tent out of straw and mud, And all it my home. Spend the rest of my life alone. I want to runaway. Maybe to the snow clad- region of The Himalayan mountains, Or to the frozen poles of the earth. Stand to the highest peaks, Without any clothes So my limbs can freeze , Till they look like plastic manikins. I want to run away, Take up permanent residence on mars, Or the moon, Or maybe on the sun. Far away from earth as possible, Because If I stay here, You'll just be a village away, A city away... A country away... Maybe a continent and it wont be enough, I'll still spend each night thinking of you. I want to runaway. Maybe to another galaxy, Maybe here exists parallel universe Where I can escape. One where there are actually super heros That wear spandex and capes. One where happily ever after's are real, And you know exactly how I feel. I want to runaway. Escape this reality to wear stars align. I would bend and twist, Or manipulating time. Abuse any available strength I can find, Just to get you out of my mind.

I want to run away
Most of my time is spent in a Piggly Wiggly line So you know the Hollywood rags I have seen Scouring them inside out, top to bottom, back to front I know all the skinny on all the skinny stars in-between This day Mona in a Moo Moo says from behind me Something about this must be done So with the east in our rear (That doesn't sound right does it!) Look out Hollywood California here we come Not long after landing in Los Angeles Before we even barely had time We set up what "THEY" think is an organic juice hand squeezed by Virgin's and Himalayan soy Sushi bar Out of our Hot Dog cart on the corner of Hollywood and Vine And yes, we've added a little secret ingredient Something to fatten those Hollywood types up So they'll look like the rest of us in America With the line around the block it looks like they can't get enough With a little dab here and a little sprinkle there (wink,wink) Our food has become the talk of the town You'd think they would have figured it out by now As each delicious bite adds a few extra pounds And menu items with names like -Add Another Roll Sushi- Or the... -Don't Look Behind You Sushi Surprise- Then there's our most popular item The -California Your **** SuperSize- Now that we've fattened up most of the Movie Stars and then some California's so heavy it may soon slide into the sea With a new concoction we've developed to stimulate brain juice's We're now taking our Hot Dog Cart to Washington D.C.
