A house with sea water
Reacting to wild suggestions of fantasy,
obsessive desires of throbbing heart,
maniacal flow of thoughts going berserk,
impulsive desires gaining momentum,
and rock hard sugarcane stalks melting in dry
compartments of my mouth,
i dreamt of the following,
chalking plans to reinforce it at some stage,
as and when,
my feet took complete stranglehold of the soil
on which i tread.
a king sized room riveted to tight cane roof,
tall slabs of wall made of white crystal mirrors,
towering columns carved of ultra light metal,
hollow interiors filled with saline sea water,
artificial springs of red liquid cascading down a
gallery of rock,
electric grey dolphins gliding with silken comfort,
infinite lotus shrub floating in tranquil peace, '
glass aquariums of fish suspended from golden rope,
i would then ride in my sea horse boat,
parading through an ambience of man-made sea,
speeding across undulating currents of condensed salt,
finally plunging myself head on,
into the tap warm waters of my created ocean,
swimming with the underwater fish for as long,
as my breath could last within dark brown jackets of
my lungs.

A Lifetime
A lifetime of sharing; unveiling the most intricate
secrets; overtopping the barriers of the disdainfully
acrid society,
A lifetime of poignant emotions; with the inner most
recesses of the heart effusively portraying their
ultimate even in the heart of chilly night,
A lifetime of caring; compounded with the uninhibited
spirit of selfless sacrifice,
A lifetime of frolicking in the aisles of untamed
desire; with the winds of doom miserably dwindling to
curb the flame of perpetual romance,
A lifetime of belief; with the devil of sinister
misconception vanishing completely into wisps of
obsolete oblivion,
A lifetime of overwhelmingly exuberant adventure;
marching intrepidly; with invincible solidarity to
achieve our goals,
A lifetime of mesmerizing fantasy; perennially wound
in each others arms in a mystical entrenchment of our
own,
A lifetime of respecting our revered ancestors;
worshipping the path of impeccably righteous ideals
which they so diligently persevered till the time they
died,
A lifetime of empathy for our fellow compatriots;
transgressing shoulder to shoulder with in their
moments of ecstasy and inexplicable sorrow,
A lifetime of staring profoundly into our eyes; no
matter what evil tried to infiltrate into the carpets
of this blissful world,
A lifetime of philandering like newly discovered
lovers; tickling each other till tears of
incomprehensible freedom trickled down our eyes,
A lifetime of procreating our own progeny; proudly
carrying forward God’s most marvelous chapter of
existence,
A lifetime of accepting each other; of what we were;
and of what we unfortunately couldn’t be,
A lifetime of holding hands with each other;
confronting the mightiest of obstacle that came our
way; with the wave of our immortal love,
A lifetime of understanding each other; discovering
the most minuscule of our likes and dislikes to the
boundaries beyond sagacious comprehension,
A lifetime of vows and resolutions; to serve each
other till the time we relinquish our breath; match
each other step for step,
A lifetime of perseverance; an unrelentingly enduring
struggle that saw us eventually clamber up the summit
of glittering success,
A lifetime of loving each other so insatiably; that
the most treacherous of pain metamorphosed into a
million smiles,
And most importantly; a lifetime of life; and a
lifetime of death; is how I wanted to lead my life
with you O! beloved; till the time Almighty Lord
wanted us to be……

A Modern Kitchen
Round colored balls of crystal glass,
oval shaped mugs of bone china,
engraved impressions of fish on thermos flask,
tiny cutglass bowls for consuming vodka,
heat resistant specimens of pressure cooker,
heavy safety valves curbing escape of steam,
circular rubber rings sewn with fire proof material,
frozen refrigerators cooling a factory of food,
hi-tech microwave boilers nursing unburnt meals,
hollow iron drums storing yearly food grain,
vibrating grinders for softening curd,
tetra burner cooking range warming milk,
large butcher knives for slicing jackfruit,
sleek bottle openers for releasing tin caps,
penta cavitied toasters for roasting bread,
large alloyed vessels for baking egg,
tri cylinder apparatus for filtering ground water,
slimy water bowls for wiping utensils,
corrugated iron sticks for grilled barbecue,
well spun coarse cloth for rubbing hands and stain,
shady compartments of exhaust vents,
obliterating traces of harsh light,
tin metal dishwasher scraping stubborn dirt,
cane baskets holding a bunch of spoon and fork,
small cuplets filled with
chilli, pepper, salt, corriander seed..... etc,
multifold light bulbs fastened to ceiling,
with dedicated housewives preparing mouth watering
dishes,
and a pitcher of beer on the granite slab,
is a glimpse of the 20th century modern kitchen.

A Palace in still water
This vast expanse of blue tepid water,
the yellow sun evading the skies,
the beauty all so glamorous,
the shimmering spires of the town.
green pastures, chirping birds,
colored sands at their perennial best,
puts beautiful palace at incisive test.
stalwarts built it firm and strong,
entrepreneurs decorated it with bronze.
water cascading at umpteenth places,
makes it the darling of all races.
garlanded with human emotions,
looks like a fire ablaze at night,
a real treat to the human eye,
with tawny fishes saying goodbye.
the colorful bonanza of gaudy lights,
the orchestra singing to a perfect rhyme,
the ornamental clock tower gives a midnight chime,
blissful silence descends all over,
as i succumb to the delight of invincible sleep.
