<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
night is still but not dark…there
is sort of a luminous glow that fills the room…there is no light seeping in through
the window shades from outside…it is the fragrance of a fleeting touch that is
still burning the fingertips…making them smolder and glow like ambers in the
fireplace in a cold winter night…like how they still glow when the lights are
off and the wine is drunk and love is being made on the rug on the floor…so the
room is bathed in that luminous glow…and the fragrance lingering from the touch
gets mixed with that of slow burning flesh…as the fire spreads from the
fingertips to the whole body…and what is held frozen inside slowly thaws…and it
begins to trickle…small, small drops falling with a hissss on to the smoldering
patches on the body on the inside…and I cannot see it, but can hear it…like the
sound and feel of the light kiss of tender rain…time floats and sleep tiptoes
up to the door, but wait in silence outside the room…very hesitant to intrude...</div>

<div class="MsoNormalCxSpFirst" style="text-align: justify;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: large;">the loneliness sprouted
from her navel…its seed buried somewhere deep in the darkness of her womb…it
grew, a slender vine slowly growing tall and swaying with the rhythm of the
dance as she sat in the dark comfort of the corner...there but not there…the
vine swayed, it danced and it grew those leaves as i watched…those big large
darkish green fleshy leaves which can take any form that they want…so green as
life and so dark and clear that you cant see them…they caress the soft
tenderness of her mind…as the darkness drip off their edges like rain sliding
off leafs on to parched earth…the smell of dampness so alive and rising up
in faint wisps…i want to call out her name across the river…for her to
turn around and look into my eyes and connect the thread so that the snake can
slither on that and reach her and wrap around her, hug her, climb the vine and
shake up the leafs and spray the darkness all around and away from her mind and
eat up the leaves one by one and another till they are not there and then take
the vine in the mouth and suck the whole thing out…prying out the seed from
where it sprouted with all the roots and everything else and spit it into the
river which will take it far and away to another life and another time…so i
call out her name across the river, loud and clear and strong…but then the raven
comes flying from nowhere and plucks my voice from the breeze it rides and
bites and chews it, shooting this pain inside me and i cry out her name again
but the raven catches it in its claws this time and laughs as it spreads its
wings giving more rhythm to the swaying of the leaves and they sing her a
lullaby and she smiles a faint little smile for the first time that evening and
the shadows of the leaves dance in rhythm with the tiny little feet on the stage
and drowns my voice again as i call out across the river…it drowns with just
froth and bubbles for her to see…and slowly she is blurring in the rain across
the river and then only the lights and the music and the dance remains and a
bit of the shadow of the leaves which touched my heart and marked it a dull crimson
that i carefully wrap in fragments of thoughts to use to light this fire later
after the rain and wetness goes…this fire that will light up the sky and touch
her mind when she looks up sometime from thousands of miles across and will kill
the shadow that caress her mind…and so i take out those fragments, unwrap the
thoughts and slowly light the fire…</span></div>

into your eyes<!--StartFragment--> <p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:justify"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: medium;">riding into the midnight rain…I enter a thick dark lush forest…hooves making ripples on the ground which travel up the trees and shrubs and bushes making them change their dark green brown yellow black into deeper shades of memories which slowly start coming alive, the vines turning into serpents which hiss as they greet an old friend but slither in hunger, slither sensuous, slither in patterns, up down all over and around in the darkness which has now started glowing slowly as silence falls soft and thick like the warm gentle rain drops flavored by the touch of the green canopy of leaves and branches of trees so old as us and so tall as time and I see bits and pieces of past still alive and bleeding bound tight with barbed wire and strung and hanging from the tree tops trying to sooth their wounds with the wet silence I bring and the ripples from the hooves as I ride and the glow gets stronger and brighter as I go deeper, the gentle moonlight seeps through the canopy and it dances with the sound of the waterfall trapped somewhere deep...while in the dancing glow the serpents mate and some shed their skins and some just gently wrap themselves around the bleeding bits of the past prying those out of the barbed wire with their darting tongues and hooks in their eyes...and i ride on, climbing the ridges of the hidden rainbow where skeletons of the pain of many who traveled this way before rattles in her womb as she had taken their pain so deep into herself and set them free...but her womb made heavy with the bones and the rattle...and so now it rains…it rains heavy and dark and the serpents dance with my naked body glistening in the rain and we dance with the moonlight in the dark forest and dance with gay abandon to make the clamor and the rattle seep into the gentle silence of the rain and the whole forest can then listen to the waterfall as it still rumbles with its deep and powerful love inside, the mist rising up from it creating the rainbow with a million colors light up everything around...and I ride on deeper and deeper….deeper into the midnight rain</span><o:p></o:p></p>

today<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;margin-bottom: 0.0001pt; line-height: normal; ">i collect drops of her smile as it froths bubbles and seeps little by precious little through the thin cracks in her voice as she sings in that ancient voice of hers which reminds me of stark naked unforgiving landscape bathed in setting sunlight with rugged mountains gashed by deep ravines which are as dry as the pools of my eyes with the same whirlwind trapped inside and yes, i collect those little drops of smile from the cracks in her song, gently put them drop by tiny drop into my eyes just to calm the dusty dry storms inside</p><p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;margin-bottom: 0.0001pt; line-height: normal; ">and so I have this huge feeling swelling inside to catch her song in mid-air and catch where the cracks are and put <span> </span>my nails in between those cracks and rip it open with bleeding fingers and let the smiles pour and pour out and to just lie down with my head on her lap and let the smiles flow into the dry pools of my eyes with those dust storms raging inside for centuries and let it all get wet and calm and salty and then there would be some coolness spreading inside and some streams flowing inside and maybe just maybe a few tears too and some things fresh and beautiful will sprout and peep out and maybe that would be a smile as well but i am tired of opening these cracks a million times and letting those trapped smiles out of the songs of strange men and women </p><p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;margin-bottom: 0.0001pt; line-height: normal; ">and this one, she might not even want the smiles out…out in the open where everyone can see the colors and textures of those smiles and they might touch and smudge them for ever and maybe even rob her of all of them…so i just place my cheek on the cracks of her song and feel the coolness as the smiles drip and thread on my cheek just below my eye and i want to reach out and kiss her and touch her soul somewhere which would also open up the cracks in her song and make those smiles gush out and i can bathe in them and splash them on my dusty face with weathered wrinkles which will then be smooth with the balm but i just don’t</p><p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;margin-bottom: 0.0001pt; line-height: normal; ">oh, i just don’t kiss her as even without bringing my lips to hers i feel the taste of her on my tongue and how it will slowly move inside me and fill up my mind and my heart and i know it is lovely and nice and warm and fuzzy and soft and it will creep up to inside my eyes from below and slowly well up through the forgotten dried up springs inside them and maybe calm the winds and give me back my tears and sprout some smiles of my own but wtf, i am just not kissing her and not dancing with the long shadows of thoughts and feelings that have started to sway with the music and i just sit there in the stillness of the night alone with her and her song and the half hidden moon and enjoy the fear and the thrill of seeing those cracks with smiles inside again and i just am alive fully at that moment where i am suspended on a thread a million feet above in the dark lovely sky, dangling on it and shutting down my mind and heart and everything else..and just listening to the song as it rips the universe just to get me to open those thin cracks a bit wider</p> <p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom:0in;margin-bottom:.0001pt;line-height: normal">but no, not

class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom:0in;margin-bottom:.0001pt;line-height: normal">tonite as you sleep in the darkness, if i have to take something away from you, let me take your <span style="mso-spacerun:yes"> </span>eyes…let me scoop them out with my nails and wipe them clean on my jeans of the blood and stuff that they still ooze..let me then kiss them dry softly and look at them long and tender holding them in the cup of my palms…let me dive deep into them and taste your little thoughts which <span style="mso-spacerun:yes"> </span>lie trapped without ever<span style="mso-spacerun:yes"> </span>coming out…gently, with the tip of my tongue so that they don’t wake up and come alive all of a sudden…let them sleep…unknown to the world, in the deep pool of darkness in the eyes…let me turn those thoughts around and separate them one by one…with a bit of me that is wet and dissolves the thick glue that binds them together…then let me ever so slowly dry them with my breath…caressing them gently as they slowly wake up…untangled and whole…and start that dance in the deep dark pools within the eyes…let me waltz with each one, by one…let me hold then close to my body…their nakedness fresh and pulsating in rhythm with my heart beat…let me swirl in the pool with them…round and round and round inside the eyes..till there is sparkle and there is fire that smolder and there is the beginning of warmth…let me then leave them to dance on and on, and slowly climb out..out of the eyes that now light up everything around..and still holding them gently in my palm, let me open your eyelids and place them back…let me kiss you on those very eyes…let my tongue glue them firm in the sockets…and then again, let me let you sleep…the sparkle and the warmth from the eyes spreading to all nooks and corners inside your body…let me see the fine strands of hair around your navel shiver as the warmth spread…let me, gently tiptoe out of your room…let me let you wake up to the lovely solitude in the warmth of darkness…glowing with the light from your eyes…</p>Shoonyatahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11050162752019456384noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7965853561880958742.post-11540919400613469852011-06-17T11:40:00.003+05:302011-06-17T17:41:54.375+05:30monsoon

you were before, just where you sat with your legs folded under you on the bed…molding my body around those contours that still throb with the warmth of your presence…let me, before the moist monsoon breeze steals that warmth with light kisses as it tip-toes around in rhythm with the raindrops drumming on the roof…let me gather those fragments of thoughts you couldn’t pack and take along with you before you left…those which shiver silently in the darkness in the loneliness left by you…let me, before they cling on to the streaks of moonlight and slither up and out through the window…and let me lie still and watch your smile as it flutter around from one precious moment to another that had bloomed at our touch…let me catch it in mid flight with cupped palms and kiss its wings…wings which sparkle with the screaming greenpurpleyellow that we painted them with…let me lie in that deep darkness and watch the twinkle in your eyes move about the room like fireflies skating on frozen silence…let me slowly peel off the layer of tiredness that crept on me through your fingertips and covered my body…let me hold you even more tight, wrapped around the space where you were, before you seep out ever so slowly, into this monsoon night</span>Shoonyatahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11050162752019456384noreply@blogger.com7tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7965853561880958742.post-42216663010394336042011-04-07T20:50:00.003+05:302011-04-07T20:58:41.354+05:30time

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">rooted in the same space, the tongue dances…molding pretty words out of the messy muddy clay in my mind… words that are wet and sticky…words that promise to hold very many, very much…even without saying anything…words which then turn and turn on the wheel spun by your thoughts to shapes that you want to create…which you gather ever so tenderly…and gently place inside you where the fire is lit and the oven is hot…firing them to your perfection…nice smooth strong defined…waiting and waiting again for my wet tongue to reach out slowly…so slowly not to touch the breeze, but just the hues of your yearning spread all over your nakedness that you bare bit by bit…for me to touch taste the pain little by little…and smear paint smudge all that is inside…with bold wild licks making<span style="mso-spacerun: yes"> </span>those colors scream so loudly… as they get burnt into the words in the heat inside you…and wait and wait for the fire to die and the oven to cool…so that we can take out those pieces that we created without our fingers getting burned and smile together marveling what we see. without words. in silence.</p>

<p class="MsoNormal">despite watching the cycle, despite non-penetration, despite the condom, despite the diaphragm, despite the morning after pill; the silence is pregnant. very. silence is always silent, but only at times pregnant. pregnant as in having a life forming inside. at the moment. as you watch. as you feel. as you shift uncomfortably with the knowledge. a life is forming inside. not just life, but a form which contains the life as well. which will have a full body soon. it will be born. yes, it will be born. soon enough. and it will resemble the father. maybe the mother. maybe someone’s grand father. or granmother. so the silence is pregnant. the words are never. pregnant. words are always empty. no life forming inside. simple. hollow. zilch. but that is wishful. now we have a silence. that is pregnant. it is growing. little fat tummy. soon you can see the form on the screen. feel the beat of the heart. feel the kick on the inside of the tummy. of the silence. which is pregnant. very. truly. now. <i>shit</i>. eat green papayas. no. silence is serene. silence is divine. pregnancy is divine. it is non-penetrative. silence is virgin. pregnant silence hangs. like in mid air. it hangs. and hangs. no one touches. all serene. all praying. let it not fall. let it not rupture. let the form inside not be born. yes. not be born. whythefuck should it. it was not to be. no need. silence. hangs. pregnant silence hangs. in collective silence. just by the rope. round its neck. slowly swinging. slowly. finally. slowly. it stops swinging. yes. dozens of eyes moving leftrightleft suddenly stops. yes. sure. they stop. it stops. silence. pregnant silence. now dead. really. and truly dead. and a smile is born. no. many. smiles are born. Whew!</p> <!--EndFragment-->Shoonyatahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11050162752019456384noreply@blogger.com3tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7965853561880958742.post-4591094578304729842011-02-12T10:04:00.000+05:302011-02-12T10:05:23.058+05:30checkingproblem with blog, checking up if everything is workingShoonyatahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11050162752019456384noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7965853561880958742.post-61374896850985789652011-01-31T11:35:00.003+05:302011-01-31T11:40:40.821+05:30magician<!--StartFragment--> <p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: center;margin-bottom: 0.0001pt;
