A Pitcher full of Gold
I started digging soil with pickaxe of the strongest
iron,
loose chunks of mud flew haphazardly,
coagulated sand broke into diffused cakes of brown
earth,
snail worms and ant ran for safe enclosures,
the ground was bruised with unrelenting strokes of
sharp blade,
interior recesses of land were wet in moisture,
sandwiched layers of soil wept at the invasion,
hot geysers of liquid erupted at great depths from the
surface,
as rain showers of sweat ran down my flesh,
after perspiring hours of grueling excavating work.
mammoth intervals of clock time passed by,
the sun peeped at dawn every fresh day,
my palms developed cracks with bleeding pores of skin,
stubby filaments of beard transformed into platelets
of wild hair,
rich cotton clothing resembled threadbare rags of a
beggar,
eyeballs were transfixed down for infinite intervals
of time,
i was severely exhausted,
reserve energies of my body were sapping down,
all of a sudden my axe struck metal,
there followed a ear splitting collision,
shards of gold flew alongwith bits of clay pottery,
my face lit up with glee,
my body was enveloped with waves of jubilation,
i knew i was going to relish luxury meals,
live in silver palaces for a while,
as the century old assemblage of buried yellow coins,
kept cascading through the small aperture made by my
plaintive pickaxe.

A Prayer to be forever bitten
Bitten by the bug of sleazy pompousness; I miserably
quavered in the aisles of irascible discomfort; for
countless moments of my life,
Bitten by the bug of scurrilous malice; I onerously
perspired like a rabidly rancid dog at every step that
I pathetically alighted,
Bitten by the bug of vituperatively ostracizing
commercialism; I trembled like a cacophonically dying
frog; even under the most brilliantly majestic rays of
the Omnipotent Sun,
Bitten by the bug of slandering laziness; I
acrimoniously fretted and wasted my time in the
coffins of wastrel cadaverousness; while the entire
planet unflinchingly marched outside,
Bitten by the bug of corpulently merciless revenge; I
spent the remainder of my impoverished lifetime;
worthlessly shedding and bathing in cannibalistic
maelstroms of gory blood,
Bitten by the bug of ghoulish superstition; I
vindictively abnegated virtually every conceivably
panoramic treasure of the Almighty Lord; lugubriously
rotting in the mortuaries of bizarrely decrepit
loneliness,
Bitten by the big of horrifically baseless lies; I
painstakingly sauntered every unraveling instant of my
life; on the lanes of torturously dastardly and
decaying death,
Bitten by the bug of diabolical obsession; I
frustrated even the most intricately silken of my
veins to unprecedented suicidal limits; inhaling the
pernicious venom of inconsolable extinction; even in
the pristine prime of vibrant life,
Bitten by the bug of salacious illiteracy; I
tirelessly kept gawking at lackadaisical bits of
fathomless open sky all my life; sporadically trapping
feckless flies in the chambers of my mouth,
Bitten by the bug of hypochondriac deliriousness; I
disdainfully crumbled into a boundless bits of
gruesomely simpering nothingness; even before the most
ethereally burgeoning fantasy could infiltrate my
mind,
Bitten by the bug of wretched stubbornness; I
hideously charred even the most inconspicuous bone of
my demeanor into threadbare meaninglessness; just to
relent to some ludicrous idiosyncrasy of mine,
Bitten by the bug of derogatory politics; I
unforgivingly soaked every pore of my body in innocent
blood; to sanctimoniously rise to the epitome of
devilishly abhorrent power,
Bitten by the bug of amorphous insomnia; I restlessly
tossed and turned in hapless desperation all day and
night; frenetically searching for that unsurpassably
unceasing paradise on earth; which just wasnt there,
Bitten by the bug of satanically pugnacious betrayal;
I wholesomely surrendered every aspect of my existence
to the heinously massacring devil; so that he could
unsparingly stone me to the most ghastliest of death,
Bitten by the bug of atrociously wanton smoking; I
slowly and slowly closed each vent of my priceless
existence; forever witnessed the beautifully
synergistic earth outside; as a corpse of non-existent
crucifying smoke,
Bitten by the bug of abject impotency; I purposelessly
loitered as a despairingly single skeleton all my
life; while the planet astoundingly proliferated into
enchantingly fructifying life outside,
Bitten by the bug of victimizing bawdiness; I
indefatigably liaisoned with countless exotically
raunchy maidens under sordid blackness; eventually
disappearing in wholesome entirety from the trajectory
of this globe; without the slightest identity or
integrity of mine,
Bitten by the bug of treacherous constipation; I
intransigently fumed in inexhaustible exasperation;
with unimaginably unfathomable buckets of morose sweat
from my body; inundating the beds of the most
disastrously empty oceans,
Bitten by the bug of parasitic debauchery; I
irrevocably kept sucking innocuous blood; before
barbarously dissolving like a piece of nonchalant shit
into the jailhouses of hell,
Bitten by the bug of ignominious war; I endlessly
exposed every open space of my ears to the sounds of
blood-curling bombarding each minute of my truncated
existence; ruthlessly destroying every shade of
artistry around with my uncouthly slaining sword,
Bitten by the bug of penniless nervousness; I
inexorably closed my eyes to even the most regally
poignant expression of my face; and the iridescent
planet outside forever became a drearily obfuscated
blur,
Bitten by the bug of destitute dumbness; I
limitlessly emanated the most thunderously emphatic of
yawns all my life; but without disseminating the
tiniest of sound,
Bitten by the bug of transiently hedonistic crime; I
malevolently snapped the chords of happiness from
other peoples lives; greedily stashing my own pockets
with impeccable blood and hard earned coin; which
eventually led me to my ominous gallows,
But bitten by the bug of immortal love; I existed as
the most pricelessly blessed organism of the Creator
Divine; experiencing the perennial bliss of heaven
right here in my exhilarating odyssey on mother earth;
and prayed to the Lord to be forever bitten; bitten
again and again and again

A single growl
The inconspicuous little tadpoles kept fluttering their fins; hardly
able to
make any impact on the violent swirl of water,
While it was only the preposterously huge Blue Whale which gobbled all
marine
life in vicinity; over-toppled the gargantuan ship; the instant it
opened its
jaw.
The diminutive stalks of grass swayed pretentiously; being mocked by
the wind
every unfurling second; as they belted miserably under pressure,
While it was only the thick rooted tree; which not only bore the
onslaught of
treacherous storm; but also granted loads of compassionate reprieve to
the
frigid follicles.
The flames of the grandiloquent wax candle appeared insipid and weak;
abysmally diminishing with the slightest draught of breeze leaking from
the
window,
While it was only the blistering fire that leapt high and handsome
towards the
sky; charring everything that intermingled with its flow; blazing
brilliantly
in the darkness of the night.
The paltry spray of fountain was delectable to witness; although it
subsided
completely when the tap was tightly shut,
While it was only the gigantic ocean with undulating waves that swelled
and
rose; thunderously clashing with the uncouth chain of shining rocks.
The chirp of the sparrow was weak and fragile; hardly making an impact
on
animate life prevailing in proximity,
While it was only the deafening roar of the majestic lion; that sent an
everlasting echo through the entire jungle; put a standstill to all
commotion;
terrorizing philandering pranksters to the last bone of their spine.
The superficial string of bombs emitted clouds of frigid smoke after
exploding; although they pathetically floundered in making any impact
on the
colossal structure,
While it was only the earthquake that devastated the entire city; sent
mighty
buildings tumbling on the ground like a pack of plastic cards.
The fairy tale was embodied with a blend of flowery and disdainful
spellings;
which were futile as they proved too frugal in tickling the mental
imagery,
While it was only the comprehensive dictionary which encapsulated every
word
spoken on the planet; that instantly triggered imagination and put the
mind to
immediate work.
The effeminate whispers of the teachers; could hardly pacify the
bustling
pandemonium in the classroom,
While it was only the stringent shout of the Principal that silenced
them in
one shot; fomented infinite goose-bumps to creep up their skin.
And the Goldsmith banged his hammer thousands of times; but wasnt able
to
produce the most minuscule of indentation on the slab of frozen water,
While it was only when the rustic Barbarian thrashed the chunk with his
heavy
axe; that the ice split into boundless splinters; and crystal water
started to
painstakingly dribble down.
