HOME IN HELL

A house disordered, The members battered, In minds confused, In speeches slittered, In sight littered, The plight tethered, To a view vandalized. Pitch rise to a high decibel, Speeches screeched to a pinnacle, Defying concentration. Deriding laughter bleeds, The mind of feelings lead, To a loophole called hell, Where evil forces dwell. A home riding to a hell, Converges restlessness, ill feelings...

derangement

Pent up emotions flow, Through the words they show, Spiteful anger resents, Thoughts are but to dissent, Minds in emotional heat, Never has understanding meet, No wealth or health can grow, In a house, its members prone, To disinterested actions in a row, Nagging subversive anger fumes, Perverted actions are in tune, To negation, a goal unseen. Minds of children are at stake, When family is an...

GOODBYE CHILDHOOD!

Desperate childhood! You cannot chide me, You are dead, In the grave of time. Sunken childhood! You cannot touch me, You have drowned, Into the bygone. Desolate childhood! You cannot bog me, You are a void, Toying with darkness. Tyrant childhood! Bitter and barren, A concatenation of mockery, Myself on verge of jeopardy. You were a ravaging fear, I fear the thought of you near, You were the...

Doping tears

                        The daily monotonous mechanical strife,                             With no adventurous spill in love and life...

Water

The silky saline water of the seas,Gets into the fishy groves in earth,Filling cavities, forming the beauty store,Lashing the shore, forming a shapely surf. Nature’s gift the water is,In body of beings, it is blood,From the grey clouds it is shedAs water to which we are chained,When ice melts, it is drained,During floods, death is rained. Water is an omnipotent force,Gliding and streaming into...

efflorescence

You are a tricky lover,Hovering around for a cover,Why do you totterFor so weak a matter?Why don’t you decideYour feelings that preside?How fatal it is to fall,In love, you can’t stall,You conceal your emotion,Bringing it to confusion,Your eyes are so bleary,Your track seems scary,Pent-up love is pretence,Love in dark is dalliance,Love in light is efflorescence. ( Love mixed with fear is...

thorny dues

Brimming with colours of gaiety, Is the life of a lover, Brilliant as ever, Fostering the games of a deity, Loving the lures of a flower, Charming as ever. Uncertain is his gamut, Selfless love is his input, Fights dauntlessly humans, With follies many as never, The seeker doesn’t stop, But climbs the hill top, Where love for him will gather, Thorns few are always due. ( Sometimes we have to face...

mental mortuary

There is a sudden squeal, Devouring a scattered meal, Pricks and pangs inflicted, A member is always indicted, It is an uncontrolled sodomy, A fertile ground for villainy, It is an abattoir for a soul, Meditating on a fixed goal Splurging is divine, No room to whine, Foolishness is ardently revered, Wisdom is vehemently scoffed, Calmness is religiously absent, Minds of members always upset, Death...

a continuance

Flushing fumes cloud my brain, Work and conflict lead to strain, Unable to bear heat and cold, Dependence had an unavoidable hold, Unable to contain all myself, Trudged to a source of help. Office colleagues found me swooning, They brought some palm nectar enlivening, I decided to continue my trail, Towards the job nailed, The job was instrumental To fulfil my life’s essentials. ( When job...
