The Tirade

In war of attrition 
with moon, 
you need a black eye.

The stars blinked.
A milkyway changed its stance 
and went on fast track.

The sense of sky 
was changing. Earth 
decided to take off the veil.


I was not engaging 
any contradictions. Let the turmoil 
throw up an alternative.

It was seen coming. 
The blind snakes 
starting an intrepid attack.
