The Earthy Habitat 8

there are so many pieces of torn paper 
into the stone-chips of the broken road 

they are of summer 
they are of late autumn 

beside is the ice-mill
the glow-sign board 
attached tightly 

the indelible ink 
catches the finger of the lemon-grass 

the fish-market is also alive and glad 

the young minister of state
sends his best wishes 
to the handloom-girls 

in between 
some horn-blowing of the 
camels 

the labour-strike trembles 

the water of dhaleswari-river 
has been filled
with the sound of subsistence

Halloween Night

Witches, switches and brooms, in the moonlight
              Dashing across the sky on Halloween Night
               Cackles sound, as witch steering brooms
        Swish across moonbeams while dark shadow looms
              Looming loudly under the veil of darkness

              Goblins, ghosts and creatures of night
           Celebrate their occasion by causing a fright
              Shrieks, screams, howling and cackling 
         Autumn leaves fall fast, as sounds of crackling
             Looming loudly under the veil of darkness

         To all Halloween lovers, enjoy this mystical night
   Trick or Treat - May your masks & costumes give many a fright
             Look up, you may see, crossing the moon
     Witches swishing across the sky on their mystical brooms
           Looming silently, under the veil of darkness

Aquarium

those 
who has so long been submerged 
in the water of the womb-cave 
now when the sun rises 
would they put their lips in action 

the pantograph 
the wheat-plants
that has been sowed in autumn 
the shyness of the houses 
going away farther and farther

how much should i become glum 
for those stations
on which i suppose to never put my steps

since taking birth 
the same story of huggis and wrappers 

i’ve told you to say good bye 
to the portman 
full of rust 

and to make an aquarium 
for the flying-fishes 
with the water-moon 

there may also exist 
some social forestry 

mr slumber 
you can’t keep the good-wishes 
arranged properly 

so as soon as the eyes get open 
the palpitations start


Premium Member White Royalty

On this Autumn day down by the stream
To see what we viewed was always just a dream
There was not just one, but actually two
Hey Semaj, they stand not far from in front of you

I am not surprised as I look on from where we stand
In the glens of Scotland where King Kade commands
Under seasonal leaves in drifting gown
White Royalty runs free as Autumn browns

Never startled as they drink from this slow running stream
Aisling my sister, demands them in her dreams
With a blink of our eyes they were here but gone
Will we ever view again on this beautiful dawn

Anonymous Inquisitors

“Do you hear gratings creak
Upon the cellar bricks?”
…Just autumn winds that wreak
Deceptive, noisy tricks.

“And did you hear the knell
Of bells from long ago?”
…The belfry long since fell
In ruins, this I know.

“Who calls your name aloud
Outside your bolted door?”
…I sleep.  No one’s allowed
To rouse me while I snore.

“Excuse us, please forgive
Our frivolous remarks—
You’ve moments left to live—
Our claws will leave red marks!”

Betrothal

say 
where should i keep all those foot-prints 
having no lineage 

from whose paraffin-in-the-palms 
has taken birth 
so much monsoon rain-falls 

why the seagulls of this earth 
have not learnt 
in a better way 
the meaning of open windows 

wearing the same costume 
they can fly only
from the north-east thames  
to the non-aryan autumn 

in the woods of yellow moon-light 
the feathers fall down 
from the body of the villagers

they levitate as letter 
like the leaves of coconut 
before the windows of a hospital 

it may happens then 
in the fire of the cigarette 
in-between the fingers 
there is no more in waiting    
any absent-mindedness   

rather 
after composing their letters properly 
the mermaids in the deep-fridge 
are waiting for their next print 

by putting the fire of the dry straws
in the air the indifferent neighbour 
saves the intellect of the red-sandalwood 

thus if it is possible to catch there 
the betrothal 
in the oily pollens of the spring


The Shadow of the Mare

She walks through darkness with sullied grace
In negligee sewn with silk black lace
Her hair it falls down as autumn red
She’s with pagan rites of us to wed

Let us slide the deep shadow of doom
And I’ll ride the mare upon the dark moon
We’ll hide like angels shamed and fallen
Let us abide by our faith stolen

Beautiful soft creature of the night
Combining pure darkness with sharp fright
Our thoughts as one and of instinct whole
Without conscience, nay without a soul

You are my Lilith as I am Caine
Your pulse a smooth current through my veins
Open your vessel for us to drink
Prepare for the new towards the brink

Singing the Songs of Autumn

Seems like
dark angels
    are going to 
reach us
   We have waited 
for years for this 
   "golden hour"
   Now turn 
the kaleidoscope
  See what you
must 
  See what you
must     
     Seems like 
someone is going 
     to appear
     Don't know his/her 
name
    but the apparition's 
       appearance
is certain 
      the air 
is redolent 
     with the 
scent of late 
             autumn 
  as we 
move in 
the autumn 
atmosphere 
    Then we 
hear a rustling 
of the leaves
     a dark 
angel approaches 
  bringing 
magic!
     and we taste 
the fruits of 
      forever 
  and burst into 
joyous song!
