diwali

gunshots
and bombs
explode
.
lighting up
the sky
blowing out
lights
.
in
innocent eyes
.
burnt smell
of fireworks
linger
.
mixing
with that of
burnt flesh
drying blood
rotting minds
.
can we
smash the diya
.
instead
touch a life
light a smile
just once
each day
?

no !

no
it is not
that
.
you are
a virgin
your mouth tastes
roasted tobacco
you think
Ayn Rand
is a saint
.
it is
just that
.
may be
just
may be
.
you are
too young
i am
too old
.
and
scared stiff
!

she, the mist and a breeze

soft touch
ruffling hair

drawing patters

on bare skin

.
like a
gentle breeze
sliding thru
gaps

.
in the

rolling mist

which

.
wraps
random thoughts
hides
wild stirrings
buries
them deep and safe

.
away from
the searching touch
of the
wandering breeze

.

yet
shutting

you, me & the beast

trapped
in my body
the beast
seemed tamed
.
till
.
bathed
in your sweat
.
drunk on
the sweet slime
you ooze
.
it broke
the web
of your wispers
.
climbed
the waves
of your heat
.
devoured me
skin bone
flesh & soul
.
spitting out
the mind
just alive
.
to
tell
the tale
.
