Euphoric Epithet


Disarrayed sands
dislodged from domain 
                   timeless,
slipped by chaotic instants,
settle ceaselessly
                   bemused
on stratified shelf 
of languid life
                  disorganized
in moments moving,
                  dismantled 
with dispersed dust 
of petrified perturbation,
truth of trust 
suffused with sanguinity,
resting on ruffled ripples 
of disordered discontent 
                   oscillates… 

In bewildered efflux 
of delinquent dismay
exhilaration transmutes
                  tousled,
mystifying alchemy 
of metamorphosis
reveals real pretense
of traumatic transmutation
                   tormenting…

Disorderly squall 
swirls sweeping depression
through the void 
of despondent whirlpool,
the mangled mind 
                  drowns 
in distraught nothingness
                 disheveled,
splinters the leitmotif 
of ethereal emotions
                 embedded,
confounded cascade 
of consternation 
carries them away,
                  nonchalant…

Sandcastles 
on shriveled shore 
of yearning
tumbles down 
in confused clutter 
of disorientated debris,
in divesting mayhem
psyche rises 
                 revived, 
shape-shifted
in lattice of time,
discovers in an instant
                  enthralled,
the covert flute 
of sensuous symphony
play the music
of ecstatic self
                 entranced, 
convivial concerto
                 reverberates
the last refrain
of melodic memory,   
euphoric epithet
of transcendent essence, 
                 eternal…

splinters the leitmotif… My sandcastle on shrunk shore of yearning…I rise revived, shape-shifted, from the sands of time…A wonderful write and love the form. Blessings, Subimal!
