Subimal Sinha-Roy Poet Ekphrasis

Two Fused Figures

In luxuriant jade landscape 
of verdant sprouts,
opulent golden understory
copiously unveiled,
stemmed by swerving 
emerald blades,
entwining the pairs 
of petrified legs
rooted in soil of sanguinity,
the potent promise
morphed as the maze 
of floral profusion.

The black figure upright 
of deviant prominence,
a towering protector
in sutured closeness, 
fused with feminine flair,
camouflaged to confuse 
invidious predator.

Bare trees aligned geometric 
in harmonized motif,
outline the florid boulevard 
for beguiled footsteps
walking away enticed
from the onyx horizon 
to the sunburst meadow
where the dulcet dawn waits
with desire epitomized.


Inspired by Undergrowth With Two Figures by Van Gogh
