Earthquake
an assembly of ornate utensils clashed down with
fervor on the floor,
the ceiling fan got uprooted from its hinges,
there was a wailing echo emanating from the earth,
an avalanche of bulky rocks tumbled down the mountain
slope,
blissful carpets of roads in the valley lay imprisoned
beneath a river of
mud,
gigantic trees which once breathed fire; now lay limp
on the ground,
a fountain of cracks spread at maniacal speeds through
walls in the edifice,
obstreperous sounds from the soil flooded the
atmosphere,
a plethora of houses crumbled; like a pack of plastic
cards,
sharp shards of metal flew haphazardly in the air,
rivers diverted their flow towards arid land,
animals hibernated from plush interiors of jungle to
urban sands,
infinite denizens were sucked in ghastly crevices,
with immaculate children being torched by steaming
curry of hot lava,
there was chaotic pandemonium on the once solitary
streets,
people ran helter skelter; with tender siblings in
hand,
the sun had forgotten to shine; the moon was juxtaposed
behind clouds of
oblivion,
my dwelling swayed like articulate swings of the
golden circus,
with side slopes eventually caving in due to traumatic
pressure of earth,
it was a gruesome catastrophe; which had decimated
millions,
leaving their counterparts stranded on undulating
hillocks of land,
the damage to life was unprecedented;
with the whole nation reeling under the onslaught of
mother nature,
some prayed to god for forgiveness; some for holistic
solace,
the EARTHQUAKE had measured 6.4 on the ritchers scale,
lasting for a threadbare minimum of 10 seconds,
still able to assasinate minute traces of
civilization; suckle the mightiest in
blistering hot recesses of earth's belly.

Engaged
When I tried to reach her via the rusty and corroded village phone; I simply couldnt savor the chance to talk to her; as it was incessantly engaged,
When I tried to reach her via road; I simply couldnt salvage the pleasure of witnessing the mesmerizing contours of her face; as the road was bustling with boisterous traffic; the road was disdainfully engaged,
When I tried to reach her via email; the usually high speed and overwhelmingly reliable internet server; was disastrously engaged,
When I tried to reach her via mental telepathy; I found my mind intransigently busy in pondering on something inconsequential; infact found my mind irrevocably engaged,
When I tried to reach her via local mail; I found myself confronted by an unimaginably onerous dilemma; as the entire postal authority was voraciously busy in delivering war messages and engaged,
When I tried to reach her via lightening fast air courier; the robotic jet carrying my indispensably precious message; crashed with a soft thud into the Atlantic; and all communication went morbidly engaged,
When I tried to reach her via satellite television; the white current of electricity brusquely snapped off; and the images got disdainfully engaged,
When I tried to reach her via the tenaciously thunderous loudspeaker; a family of mice ate the deliciously spongy wires; and the waves that now emanated were hoarsely engaged,
When I tried to reach her via the harmoniously flowing river; the waters suddenly brewed with a tumultuously fierce storm; were murderously engaged,
When I tried to reach her via exorbitantly paid fast taxi; the sleazy ticket counter was prolifically thronging with pedestrians; was miserably engaged,
When I tried to reach her via conventional fax; the usually synchronized and thoroughly ingenious machine; now blurted the tunes of insipidly engaged,
When I tried to reach her via the electric paced bicycle; the traffic signal abruptly metamorphosed to horrendously red; went pathetically and uncertainly engaged,
When I tried to reach her via the nation wide radio; an immediate emergency got declared in all quarters of the state; the line conked out and eventually went mercilessly engaged,
When I tried to reach her via an ambulance perched on its relentlessly nictitating rooftop; a spuriously bandaged victim stopped its expedition midway; and it was rendered compulsively engaged,
When I tried to reach her via my sophisticated little mobile instrument; ready to pay even astronomical sums of money to establish rapport with her passionately divine presence; the line sounded a mockingly engaged,
When I tried to reach her via the stridently blaring whistle; signaling her surreptitiously to come out in brilliant sunshine; there spewed a sandstorm in the placid atmosphere; drowning my voice in entirety; leaving it momentarily engaged,
When I tried to reach her via the contemporarily gleaming lift; I embarrassingly floundered in my attempts; as the contraption was deplorably stuck between two floors; was for the time being stubbornly engaged,
When I tried to reach her via the celestial heavens; I simply wasnt able to appease the Creator to help me in my cause; as his Omnipresent presence was busy chalking policies for the sustenance of this mighty Universe; was a trifle engaged,
And my string of bad luck didnt end here itself; when I finally did manage to reach her enchanting doorstep; I found much to my utter dismay; that she had already chosen the man of her dreams; was already ENGAGED

Footprints
When the colossal dinosaur traversed through the
marshy soil; there occurred a
deafening roar; the entire family of jungle beasts
saluted him,
However he left behind a trail of triangular
footprints; bohemian and
gigantic; that made onlookers uneasy; by merely
glimpsing the same.
When the hunch backed camel ambled languidly through
the desert; I paid him
flowing tributes of adulation; for unceasingly bearing
the tyranny of
scorching heat,
However he left behind a semicircular array of
footprints; which appeared
pretty insipid and nonchalant.
When the stray dog ran across the wet road; he was a
sight to stare; with his
furry coat now camouflaged in muddy water,
However he left behind a battalion of messy
footprints; which caused
disdainful blemishes on the surface.
When the handsome horse galloped across the racetrack;
he looked majestic and
grandiloquent; panting with spurts of exuberant
energy,
However he left behind an incongruous design of
footprints which were crudely
square in shape; punctuating cavities in the hard
ground.
When the olive green and serrated skinned crocodile
slithered through the
river banks; he looked domineering and awe inspiring,
However he left behind an armory of deadly footprints;
which caused sumptuous
food in the belly of innocuous trespassers to
violently churn.
When the protuberant bellied ducks paraded through
clayey farm mud; they
appeared a sight to feast on; with their yellow beaks
dazzling brilliantly in
the sun,
However they left behind a jugglery of diamond shaped
footprints; which
perpetuated incorrigible stains in the spotless
kitchen.
When the black striped panther aimlessly loitered
through the tropical grass;
he looked like a royal prince; embodied with the
whitest of silken whisker,
However he left behind a fleet of monstrously
incoherent footprints; which
scrupulously lead the hunter to his den.
When the nefarious robber stealthily crept across the
soil; he left me
dumbfounded; clad in the blackest of attire; with a
snake hood camouflaging
his face,
However he left behind a volley of deplorable
footprints; which helped the
police to trace and apprehend him.
And when she walked on the cold floor with bare feet;
it shivered as if
caressed by a celestial fairy; having just descended
from the realms of
heaven,
Also the footprints that she left behind were
perfectly synchronized; were the
most mesmerizing that I had ever sighted on the
trajectory of this earth.

Forever in love
Once a failure; not necessary that always a gorily
disoriented failure; being lambasted in the aisles of
horrendous nothingness,
Once a loss; not necessary that always a hideously
unsavory loss; crucifying you beyond the realms of
pricelessly impregnable existence,
Once an abusing; not necessary that always a
derogatorily unceremonious abusing; brutally kicking
you like an infinitesimally frigid matchstick; towards
the coffins of morbid hell,
Once an isolation; not necessary that always a
remorsefully dastardly isolation; abjectly obfuscating
you from the quintessentially glorious fabric of the
symbiotic planet outside,
Once a sidelining; not necessary that always a
preposterously delinquent sidelining; incarcerating
you in chains of disastrously ominous despair while
the entire earth uninhibitedly freaked outside,
Once a torture; not necessary that always a
sadistically cacophonic torture; making every
unfurling instant of your fantastically embellished
existence worse than a countless hapless deaths,
Once a betrayal; not necessary that always a fretfully
tyrannizing betrayal; burying you wholesomely alive in
the parasitically decaying grave,
Once a criminal; not necessary that always a
vindictively insane criminal; cadaverously
perpetuating into the sky of fathomlessly invincible
truth,
Once a cannibalistic; not necessary that always a
turgidly decrepit cannibalistic; ruthlessly
excoriating apart innocuously celestial flesh; into a
boundless bits of inconspicuous oblivion,
Once a backbencher; not necessary that always a
lugubriously inane backbencher; unsurpassably yawning
in indolent ignominy while the earth burgeoned into a
spell bindingly golden tomorrow,
Once a tail; not necessary that always an egregiously
shy tail; curled a limitless kilometers inside the
legs; at even the most ethereal innuendo of enchanting
thunder,
Once a laggard; not necessary that always a
licentiously heinous laggard; slavering like a
salacious leech at every aspect of inscrutably
resplendent life,
Once an unemployed; not necessary that always a
fragrantly baseless unemployed; nonchalantly staring
into lackadaisical bits of skull-less space for hours
immemorial,
Once a corpse; not necessary that always a
treacherously ghoulish corpse; fecklessly quavering in
the mortuaries of intransigently endless and dismally
asphyxiating despair,
Once a stone; not necessary that always an languidly
lackluster stone; crumbling in lecherously dumb
silence till the last puff of enchantingly iridescent
life,
Once a curmudgeon; not necessary that always a
scornfully wailing curmudgeon; irrevocably tossing and
turning in uncontrollably maniacal frustration and
clamminess,
Once an impotent; not necessary that always a
vituperatively laconic impotent; squelching the brakes
of the perfidiously whipping devil upon the Omnipotent
Lords chapters of; unbelievably blessing creation,
Once a teardrop; not necessary that always a banefully
agonizing teardrop; carnivorously circumscribed by a
gutter of misery throughout every unleashing moment of
fantastically effulgent life,
But once in love; means forever and ever and ever
embracing its immortally altruistic swirl; means
forever and ever and ever letting the winds of its
magically mitigating goodness caress your impoverished
soul; means forever and ever and ever existing as the
most priceless organism ever alive; means forever and
ever and ever and for an fathomless more births of
yours; always in LOVE
