You are my skyline















I can see my hoardings
On the city skyline
Surrounded by light...
By ladies so bright.
I come alive with night.

Through these pictures
I stare at the sky
And then I see you

Raindrops trickling
Through you
Augmenting your hue.

Drops of dew
Shining on you
The sun himself
peeping through you

And then I see myself
standing next to you
Quarrelling on issues
Which never mattered
To me or to you.
You saw me weep
You saw me laugh.

But now stranded
In the city hoardings...
Sans emotions, sans feelings
It's you whom I seek
It's you with whom I can speak...
About things which matter...
Only to me and to you.

Rebirth

In the thick of dust
Left over from the overnight jungle fire
something seemed to move
Going close enough
I found two fingers trying to come out
I watched in disbelief
and slowly the whole hand
had made its way out
I then realised that I may be of some help
and tried to reach out
and help him coming out
But he didnt accept my help
and instead jerked my hand away
I felt bad on the denial
But still couldnt help watching in disbelief.
Slowly his bald head was also out
It was as if a new baby taking birth.
Again.
On its own. No mother to support him,
No father to protect him.
And soon he was surrounded by beasts
Roaring unceremoniously
I climbed on the tree
To save my self
and have a clearer picture
as to what is going to happen
And then I saw somehting
Which made me shiver
The man stared at the beast
For few seconds
And silence prevailed.
The beasts patiently waited
Till the man was completely born.
Fully naked as he was
He looked strong and healthy
He walked towards North
As if he already had some plans
And seemed to be his own GOD
The beasts followed him like disciples
Patiently and silently.

Star gaze...

The sound fading away...
She left me in the desert and drove away.
Water water no where
and tears stopping no way...

I lied down on the sand
Looking at the sky so grand
The stars staring at me
So many of them
I chose to ignore
And just sleep and snore.

In the dark!

I'm lying in a dark cottage
Where you can't see a soul
But hear the barrage
And feel the rage.

I slowly try to stand
But cuffs on my hand
Make me lie down
What i do is simply frown.

Then suddenly someone enters
And one more injection.
The pain goes, the smell disappears.
And there is light all over...which reappears.
I'm happy that I can still dream.
Dream of light....of freedom...
of sanity....of wisdom.

Somethings are pure shit

somethings are
u know what
just pure shit
some might
call it religion
others call it culture
some may call it society
but at the end of it
it's just pure shit.

Boys don't cry.....

With tears in her eye
She hugged me gudbye
I patted on her back
And assured to come back
She cried even more.
And I left the shore.
The sea waves dashed on the deck
As if the ship would go wreck
The water splashing everywhere
Gud that sea water covered my face
Hiding my tears...saving my race.
