He was love’s fool
A drop of rain
In a downpour of seasonal shame
A farthing in the fountain
Spent on wishes
Glistening in the fenlands
Of unreplenished riches

A plea, among the rustling
In a vast forest of variegated leaves
Sorrow among garrulous winds gusting
A path through
His wooded pathos
Blazed with love and lusting

Then a tear finds wing
On a falling leaf
Snapped from the limbs
by currents of heat
rockabye'd into halcyon
so misery and his companion
Forge a new coin

Thrown and flipping along an arc
A pinwheel casting solar sparks
Purling hope in a tumbling fall
promises anything can happen
To anyone
Anytime
at all

stores are running deficit
provisions unreplenished
ovens seeing less of flames
you're writing love poems!

cobwebs in the rooms dance
future in shambles unplanned
caught in lunatic trance
you're writing romance!

dirt is marking the wall
worries bursting the skull
expenses shaking nerve
you're busy writing love!

no bother no future plan
quickly dwindling ration
drowned in dense emotion
you're pouring passion!

Words and images
Of hate and despair.
Concrete walls
And iron bars.
Divisions of the soul.
Loathing, ceaseless strife.
Happiness vanishing
Within the night.
Masses herded.
Shivering in lonely seasons.
Unprepared, pretentious
Mongers of greed.
A small plant
Bending towards sunlight
While trampled
Under foot.
Insane, mundane
Theoretical disadvantages.
The universe has no use
For the virus of
The Human Race.
******* dry and
Leaving empty.
Necessities unreplenished.
The moon
History of the last
Failed experiment.
Future doomed
Of history's repent.
Repetitious reinventions
Gone with the limbs of
The serpent.
Contagious, voracious
Blissful ignorance.
Blinded, blurred
Worth of self.
Dependently independent.
Unable to close the gap
Between tomorrow and
The now.
Following too closely
In the wake of
Destruction.
Abandoned,
Unable to change course.
Eternal frailty.
Impregnated with
Foreign thoughts
And foreign words.
Somewhere lost in
The granules of time.
Wrapped up in the eternity
Of my own mind.

Let you and I fly the land,
Where the COVID can't reach us.
Where we breathe the fresh breeze,
We touch each other and kiss.

Hand-in-hand we walk on some ******, unexplored roads,
With the hope to step in the heaven unseen.
The ripe fruits you plucked,
Indicates the maturity to handle my unripe moods.

Oh the bed of roses!
Seems the unseen staged it,
Seems you too were eagerly waiting,
To witness the maiden union of the two of our bodies.

Thirsty, hungry and tired
I began complaining.
You put your finger on my lips and whispered,
"Shhhhhhhhh….
Don't say a word,
Mouths can be used in other ways,
So as tongues artfully can move in other ways.
Let's wordlessly convey all the things
We have waited all this while to say."

I see my reflection in your eyes,
As our lips unite.
My heart urges you to taste me until
You can take no more.

Let my body lie on the bed,
And your hands explore it.
Make love like the world is going to end.
Give your everything to me
And love me hard.

You closes my eyes.
Ignore the clock as your fulfillment.
Only ******* is on my mind,
Lemme make you forget the world tonight.

You whisper sweet little nothings in my ears.
I am unaware of the *******.
As I regained my senses,
I am shy but my eyes tell a different story.
You forcibly take away my hands I used to cover my precious things.

The more it gets in,
The more it heightens the ecstasy.
Finally the quest for depth is fulfilled.
Still the thirst remained unreplenished.

There lies something beyond the flesh-play,
Something that blends two souls.
When it's not about devouring up the skin,
But the marriage of two souls.
A union pure and beautiful.
