Sandip Goswami Poet Prose Poetry

I Am Alone On the Island of Death

I am alone on the island of death
Around the bodies of hundreds 
Natural disasters happened a little earlier 
All dead
My enemies, allies, relatives
Some of the most intimate

I am on mass of ruins
Loud noise...Moaning...Unbroken silent in a trice
I am just at the end
There are no tears in my eyes, no fear in chest
I am speechless

I am in the midst of so much death, destruction
Creation is alive
It's my responsibility to rotate the wheel again
Just me.

SANDIP GOSWAMI, INDIA

M. L. Kiser March 6, 2014 at 10:25 AM I think that you've captured the moment of shock well, with this poem. I too, have been speechless at some of these disasters...sometimes you just look around and freeze and then, when the horror is realized...you have limitless ache. A very good poem to ponder.
