Rain: the different night

I don’t remember the night,
When my poems were with me,
And even in my dreams, I was a poem.

I don’t remember the night,
When the mad rain sang
The song of peril
And even in the sleep,
City moaned as it saw it’s nearing end.

I don’t remember the night,
When you kept talking and
I, being engrossed into unawareness,
Had your marks caught in the words.

When the morning came,
The rain has been slow,
Sun rays are trapped in cage og clouds
A morning has been put on the world, but a delayed one,
Sleep broke, I came to know,
There is poem aside my bed,
And it bears your signs,
There are drops on palm,
Where rain has rested for a while.
Now voices of rain and yours mingle
And, my day refuses to move ahead.

I could feel it

Past

Past is difficult thing to leave. It becomes even more difficult if past that you are trying to forget was what your identity for all years passed. The memories you are trying to erase are what your habits and words for all time passed. It is difficult burden to throw away and more difficult if you know what you are throwing away is still dearer to you. I never made peace with the fact that I worked for RSS. What kept me there are persons who designed the organizations, curtailed and fitted themselves to any task and impulsive responses whenever any social catastrophe happened. What made me to withdraw myself is restricted view towards human being. Sketching human being as religious entity, putting unnecessary benevolence or cruelty on him or holding concepts about humanity much more worth than humanity which created them are not my cup of teas. But even though I fragmented in my attachments, what never changed is my respect and attraction for creative organization of human beings ...

Incompleteness

Leading life logically is what philosopher tried to do for many years. It doesn’t mean they actually lived so. But, somehow, through all their works, they tried to establish some or other cage of thoughts and presented life as some wild but tamed animal inside. How that animal got inside the cage was what not they tried to explain. They elegantly, skillfully and precisely described what to do it once it is caged. But, somehow what matters to most of the living mortals, like me, is how to cage it or whether is it possible at all to cage it. They keep mum, a sacrosanct silence. What is problem in perceiving life system with some tailor made premises? And, if one does not do so, then what is the way to explain social organization? What do we mean by ‘explain’? ‘Explanation’ is bringing something unknown into known. We bring it by various means. One uses analogies, examples, anecdotes or any part of known information to put a frame around unknown. If this frame fits, one ‘knows’. I...

Poems of lost winter

A shadow of loss hangs over the city, Even when it is December,  The time when we should dip the year of losses in  Illusion of good times.  But the cold nights and warm days,  Stand so apart from each others, Like strangers sharing the same room.  And, one wonders where is the winter that we all know.  Where are the days of kind light? Where are the days of aimless strolls? Where are the roads wide enough for our dreams?  Like an incomplete conversation that promised so much and  Melted in adieu, The chill in the air disperses and lurks the summer Of blinding premonitions. When we die under the unbearable sun, dear, Will you remember the poems which we left back in the last winter?
