Startle
So long as the tongue
Was in place
No holocaust was evident
Tourism was a synonym
of progress
and not of unsung show
Who knows the ultimate
Comprehends the startle --
Once the fingers of the palm
Spreads like the tongue
Dawn comes
Along your forefinger
H a t r e d.

Night-table
Whom do I bestow this chill, this full moon haunt
Many images sparkle on night-table
Mounting water course
Within ugres are turning vivid
Suspending my own
Hanging
Upside down
Fragments of self
Revel in isolation now
Every iota alone
Who wins this moony detour
This bankrupt eve
Who knows

Extinguishment
Slowly, the consciousness gets clarified
A quiet, pervading wakefulness prevails
My creations speak of
infallible renouncement.
I ask myself
Why does a dense person
prefers rarefied isolation.
In the dim light
Peeping through bay-window
The formless shadows
cast illusion of a crowd.
And I realize
How my poems
are gettind condensed
day by day.....
Nirban

Mundane Moments
When vacuousness approaches, the rosy apples
Continue to linger on sleepless saucer. The crunchy teeth
Where passions glittered, rest a concrete silence
Lustless hands hung loosely across the heart
When does nihility approach. Why does it come
ruminating manay a loner eve rolls by
The beard lengthens, nails, hair and unsociability
Disrupting doorbell I lie down in vacuum
Devoid of enlightement
And once again I became aware of the friction of teeth
And observe hands and cruel teeth
Engrossed once again in munching apples

My Petty Greed
People with petty greed ~ how much do they get
Not all people have big-sized greeds
We very ordinary
bunch of people with petty greed
Don't even have courage to feel big-sized greed
My petty greed has often been met
by petty donors
Twice or so I was saved
by the God on my shelf
After safe escape I gave a smirk
Indulged a bit in intellectual conceit Ah
Escaped narrowly honour is saved
Yet my petty greed was not quenched
Even now I make rounds to petty donors
Ah they too are small-time people
They too live within limits
How can they give their all
Even if they give do I have the guts

Sunburst
Seducing the wet grasses of the garden
and caressing the very darkness
the sun is preading slowly
Through the silent chin of marble statue
sundrops are sweating
Running through the lawn of tiny rocks the desperate sun is ringing
the door-bells of upstairs
Get Up O dear Get up and see
saying this throwing multicolored perfumed
letters of cocktails over
the smashed nighty and gloomy night dresses
Sun got no leisure
the busy sun is jumping from the
voracious sunset
Crossing the overbridge
like a yellow reptile
