Missing the snakeman

moon light through the window
gives life to the blind’s shadow
lifting itself
to a sensuous dance

.
pitter patter raindrops
incessant drumming of random thoughts
dampness in the air, tiredness of the spirit
a shed skin somewhere, lying soaking wet

.
fragrance of raw flesh
brought by the roaming cloud
stirring hidden longings
rising slowly like the snakeman’s hood
.
the rain stops
as the moon sleeps
and stealing back the fragrance
the cloud moves
.
knotted feelings untie,
as the snake uncoils somewhere
.
the mind lets go
sleep creeps in,
but the heart lingers….

Kiss of life

I would have your body

rather

.

what use your mind

which plays war games

with

stinking corpses of reason

.

or your soul

perched on a tree top

waiting to pounce

on the passing god

.

keep your mind in the fridge

to chill

and drop your soul in the letterbox

to god

.

come, let me start loving you

with a kiss of life

.

The Wind and the Sea

today I hold your hand
today I walk with you
.
today i hold your hand
as the waves hold the wind
so close but not clinging
so far but fingers kissing
.
today i walk with you
not as shadow to a body
but as fragrance moves with memories
as images move on melodies
.
today I hold your hand
today i walk with you
today i smile at the same sunset
which paints a glow on you
.

still
free to float with the waves
free to ride the breeze
free to bathe in the stream
free to kiss the sunlight
.
with no chains and norms
with no whys and whynots

.
yet the rocks changing a bit
with the caress of each wave

and the beach made a bit smoother

with each kiss of the blowing breeze

.

God @ Thiruvannamalai Parikrama

next to her
the trees were young
.
the skin rough as barks
weathered by age and hunger
.
she walked the night with me
no I walked the night with her
.
she took in my pain
thru her blistered feet
and smiled it out
shaming the moon a bit
.
and on her dark shoulder
soaked with smelly sweat
I found God
peacefully sleeping

.
secure
and with out fear
