Sex Binds Us

Sex binds us.
Nothing else.

You don’t feel like
Making love
To a man,
Whom you
Just love
As a friend.

But you have to
As he’s the one
You are
Married to…

We are bonded
By sex.

He, with an
Unquenchable

Verges

You've
Given her
As much
Pain, as she
Can pour out
In her poesies

Now,
Don't
Give her
So much
Pain that
She verges on
Insanities…

You'll be
Able to
Live with her
Poesies…
But will you be

Rape

Why you men
Blame us,
For tempting you
To rape us?

Is it because
Of our skimpy
Clothes?

Tomorrow,
You walk
Naked -
On the streets
And see
How many
Women sodomise
You?

There'll not be
A single case of

Home Across The Road

On reading
My TV poem
He wrote:
Wish I was
The home
Across the
Road, I could
See you :)
Every day.

I responded:

You don't need
To be the home
Across the road.
You are in my
Heart's home.
I see you :)
Every day.

Just Sex

What you want?
Just sex: you say.

What fixes you?
Just sex: you say.

What controls you?
Just sex: you say.

What am I to you?
Just sex: you say.

What is love to you?
Just sex: you say.

What is lust to you?
A lot of sex: you say.

It vexes me, to
Every question,

Meaning

Why you keep
Peeping into
Boloji? !

To see if I've
Written any new
Poetry? !

I've penned a poem
On your heart…

Go and decipher it.

Read in between
The lines…
And decode the
Hidden meaning ;)
That will give you
An ‘out of the world'
Meaning…which will

Two and Minus Two

The warmth
Of my
Family
Keeps me
Going…
In this
Cold,
Wintry
Weather
Of
Leigh-on-Sea.

Yet I can’t help
Thinking - about
Those bleak souls…
Somehow existing in
Broken relationships,
Suffering hardships…

Such freezing

Character

The character
Of a man is
Known by
What he does
To you…
When you are
Weak and downtrodden

Does he uplift you?
Does he exploit you?

Upliftment may be
Mental, emotional
Physical or financial
Exploitation may
Also be the same

If you are able to answer
How he treats you…
You'll be able to decipher

Name

My heart
Misses a beat
Every time
I see his
Name ;)

I want to
Remain
In love
With him
Come
Disgrace
Fame or
Shame ;)

Love is not
For the
Faint-hearted
Who can't
Venture out

Free

It's a free
Society…

Free sex,
Freebies:
Buy one,
Get one
Free…
Freedom
Of the
Press.

But the
Mind is
Still shackled
By age-old
Customs…
Blind traditions
Too many…
Superstitions
