Lines More Lunatic Than the Sun 4 - 6
Lines more lunatic than the sun – 4
your body
that’s fond of tv-soap
with its un-worldly moonlight and worldly tricks and posterings
as if it wants to plough
a thin winter that is attached firmly with a mermaid
along with the-path said-by-her
the white leaves are being flown away
on the-path written-by-her
the black-flags are making crowd
in source-root of both of them lies only one opening-song
at the end of both of them lies only one flower-festival
pre-occupied by some other thoughts
it’s least to say
it has nine colours
it has ninety coloured-girls
if its feast be got open
the vermillion-mark of dusts
the garland of wading-birds
the squirrels
in the bed of bananas
in between two stations
when the local train stops
from the logic-card of the pumpkin
it’s produced
always-new such dialects
of the bath- in-the-ganga
Lines more lunatic than the sun – 5
far from the centre-stage
production is going on
of many street-dramas
on handling the characters in them
is developing always
that sun-shine of horses
think sincerely in favour of it
how much change can be introduced
in the weight-structure of the night
and the night-queen
think sincerely how long more
the subsidy paid to the inter-caste alphabet
of the rhizomes of the paddy plants
would be continued
to make high the fertility of the school-buses
if the pages of the daily news-papers
be gone through well
it is understood
where there is folk-dances
there is hailstorm
the potato-growers are undone
observing all those
the coloured eyes of the water-cat
become much tearful
come, oh shy grandfather
gathering on this platform of pot-herb-creeper
we now
in search of some unspoilt palmyra-pulp of the kernel
we start digging vehemently
the pores of the skin of our body
Lines more lunatic than the sun – 6
the sleep is sleepless
in this hot-sea-shore
that’s my only guardian
in the form of clouds
for separating myself from the palms of my hands
that is my act of ferrying boat eaten by ants
Not for a golden deer my darling for a golden iguana
I am now totally dedicated to my pocket-comb
today’s income is very little
yet may you note
with the match-stick
i can rightly be able to reach that rehearsal-room
if you have taken decision
to make the rain-water your capital
then I have to display more simplicity on my face
the fight would never be finished
