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 couldn’t savor the chance to talk to her; as it was incessantly engaged,
When I tried to reach her via road; I simply couldn’t 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 wasn’t 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 didn’t 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….

Equal Equanimity
When I first saw her; I felt tremors of unparalleled
excitement euphorically enshroud me; till the very
last bone of my spine,
While today when we had perpetually coalesced in
threads of immortal love; I had not even the most
infinitesimal iota of fear; as I willingly surrendered
myself to the most ghastliest of death….
When I first saw her; I felt unsurpassable torrents of
ecstatic rhapsody tingle me till times beyond blissful
eternity; as I uncontrollably slithered in the clouds
of timelessly endless desire,
While today when we had perennially bonded in flames
of impregnable love; I philandered without even the
tiniest of circumspection in my eyes; ready any
instant for the most torturously truculent of death….
When I first saw her; I felt unfathomable infernos of
exuberance envelop every ingredient of my scarlet
blood; as I unrelentingly envisaged the compassionate
magic of her sensuously ravishing caress,
While today when we had invincibly bonded in mists of
bountifully unassailable love; I smilingly invited the
corpse of traumatic death; unflinchingly bonding my
spirit with the Omnisciently divine…..
When I first saw her; I felt like the most majestic
prince on this colossal earth; fabulously
romanticizing in the realms of stupendous aristocracy
and tantalizing passion,
While today when we had unshakably blended in the
entrenchment of mesmerizing love; I trespassed even
the most acrimonious fires of hell barefooted;
liberating my mind; body and spirit; in wholesome
entirety…..
When I first saw her; I felt as if all enchantingly
blooming goodness of the gigantic planet; had been
sumptuously bestowed on my impoverished lap,
While today when we had irrefutably intermingled in
the tunes of gorgeously everlasting love; I selflessly
relinquished every organ of my body for all bereaved
humanity; asking the devil to squelch me instead….
When I first saw her; I felt insatiably untamed
whirlpools of longing profusely encapsulate my nimble
flesh; with the yearning embrace her voluptuous body;
overwhelmingly towering over every other thing on this
Universe,
While today when we had unequivocally united in the
fortress of unbreakable love; I had not the most
capricious of apprehension; in imparting bone of my
body to the valley of sadistic death….
When I first saw her; I felt as if I had just
discovered my truest identity in vibrant existence;
astoundingly spell bound by her regally Omnipotent
footsteps,
While today when we had intransigently mated in the
swirl of heavenly love; I wholeheartedly welcome
morbid death on my doorstep; bid adieu to this planet
with grateful contentment aligning the contours of my
diminutive face….
When I first saw her; I felt that the fathomless
horizons were a fraction too short; as the paradise of
empathy in her marvelously enthralling eyes; stretched
till boundless kilometers even beyond infinite
infinity,
While today when we had irrevocably melanged in the
ocean of vivacious love; I altruistically bestowed
every speck of my breath to all those despicably
thwarted; before handing my penurious body to the
scavengers of vindictive death……
And when I first saw her; I felt that the beats of my
passionately thundering heart made me the most
priceless scintillating entity alive; as I embarked on
an expedition of impeccable truth on every step that I
tread,
While today when we had divinely fused in the
fragrance of symbiotically philanthropic love; I
handsomely saluted the chapters of life and
inexplicable death with equal equanimity; was duly
prepared for both any instant; whatever the Lord had
in store for me…..

Equally intolerable
There is nothing such as small crime or big crime; for
every crime that is ghastily committed; is equally
pernicious and a cadaverous graveyard of insane
deliriousness,
There is nothing such as small stink or big stink;
for every stink that tyrannically emanates; is equally
flagrant and a corpse of grotesquely asphyxiating
remorsefulness,
There is nothing such as small manipulation and big
manipulation; for every manipulation that insidiously
flourishes; is equally sinister and a crumbling
edifice of vapidly ostracizing fecklessness,
There is nothing such as small devil and big devil;
for every devil that cold-bloodedly marauds; is
equally satanic and a ghoulishly sadistic carcass of
relentlessly victimizing decay,
There is nothing such as small insanity and big
insanity; for every insanity that preposterously
lambastes; is equally dastardly and an outright
crucification of the laws of symbiotically propitious
existence,
There is nothing such as small prejudice and big
prejudice; for every prejudice that maliciously
lingers; is equally derogatory and a venomously
strangulating battlefield; eventually withering into
infinitesimal wisps of livid hell,
There is nothing such as small corruption or big
corruption; for every corruption that opprobriously
mutilates; is equally cannibalistic and an unstoppably
vicious maelstrom of criminally salacious injustice,
There is nothing such as small abuse or big abuse; for
every abuse that sinfully curses without any reason or
rhyme; is equally decrepit and a gutter of brutally
unsolicited trash; that morosely infiltrates
impeccable lives,
There is nothing such as small stagnation or big
stagnation; for every stagnation that amorphously
devastates; is equally traumatic and an
inconspicuously unforgiving dungeon of rapacious
parasites,
There is nothing such as small infidelity or big
infidelity; for every infidelity that ruthlessly
betrays; is equally disastrous and an uncontrollably
evaporating desert of cancerous sadness,
There is nothing such as small obstacle or big
obstacle; for every obstacle that unsavorily stops; is
equally bellicose and a frigidly skittish mist which
wholesomely dissolves with the voice of eternal
righteousness,
There is nothing such as small ungodliness or big
ungodliness; for every ungodliness that
indiscriminately bombards; is equally penurious and a
raunchily threadbare rag that rots in the confines of
unforgiving imprisonment,
There is nothing such as small delinquency or big
delinquency; for every delinquency that fatally
victimizes; is equally punishable and a helplessly
squirming maimed insect for the fabric of resplendent
mankind,
There is nothing such as small ghost or big ghost; for
every ghost that vengefully jinxes; is equally morbid
and a meaninglessly wastrel thorn for all echelon of
blissful society,
There is nothing such as small lie or big lie; for
every lie that savagely extinguishes; is equally lame
and a murderous bedlam of lugubrious non-existence,
There is nothing such as small politics or big
politics; for every politics that atrociously
disintegrates; is equally disdainful and a perilously
numbing blackness of mercilessness which never ends,
There is nothing such as small monotony or big
monotony; for every monotony that despicably jails; is
equally obnoxious and an unimaginable poison that
annihilates every iota of freshness in the;
ingratiatingly celestial atmosphere,
There is nothing such as small heartlessness or big
heartlessness; for every heartlessness that fiendishly
decimates; is equally demonic and a stream of stray
blood without the tiniest of rudiments or integrity,
And there is nothing such as small death or big death;
for every death that barbarously snatches; is equally
intolerable and a final adieu to the chapters of
Omnipotently sacrosanct life and unconquerably
priceless humanity…
