Transparently Wild Sentinel

TRANSPARENTLY WILD.   Sentinel.


Ghosh! a cataclysmic mega quake in its menace,
rumbling tertiary large water wall roars.            
Engulfs the red  shining  bright cutie sentinella,
that stands melancholic but firm with no fears.     


Oh! the rustle of the wavy crescendo and a thud,
merciless devastation proceeds to swallow.          
Coarse tsunami heads for its mission,
hopefully peeps the light with glow facing the throw. 


Yes! come what may,it will not budge,
to direct,protect land and save more lives.             
To save mother earth from severe wounds,
under its surveillance,its foresight thrives.              


Ah! the fierce aggressive waves carry on,
changing colours from white,crystal to beige,         
All the more cinderous it gets expanding on shore.
In its struggle, the lighthouse will not age.

Ashen India

Scene
from a
borderless willowed window
frame
one scarlet cigar of sparking neon
smoked on slaplit glass
perhaps
meantime
the cinderous binding frays but
that face carries cities continents constellations
slow shellac sounding significances wrinkling into ivory
leaves of remembrances read over
some text they shared
may be
vellum will fray but
no
not this way.
