My gorge rises, my blood boils.
Exasperated I bite my envenomed tongue.
Incensed I spout mad words
that have no meaning
defending my attitude,
maintain my poise.
I bait, fret and nag,
like a tantalizing volcano
that has yet to decide
whether to erupt or not.
Don't answer me back,
Twill only fan the flames
of my irritable ire.
For if I erupt, then
there is no going back.
Don't goad me into a quarrel,
my lava burns.
So beware.
She leaves never to return.
Good.
After all what is she?
A lazy domestic cleaner
that performs half the work assigned
And get paid in full for it.
My wife smiles.
She’s glad the cleaner is gone for good.
She is too sexy for comfort.

An outburst
Wishing one the worst,
In malice, very rich:
A virgin becomes a !
Of envenomed spite
In no way light,
Recipients to weep a river of salty tears
And at intervals nurse uncanny fears…
“Another isn’t going to meet a smiling tomorrow
And in abject misery wallow;
In ruinous disease waste.
And a gruesome death taste”
All the “To hell with you”
And “You shan’t be of any use”.
Always a verbal offensive throwing its punches
With the boxing gloves of Natural Laws
Or of feared deities parading evil jaws
A propensity man from God had picked
Except that when he utters it his lips are contentedly licked;
At all times a sequel to some lost temper,
Which on both sides would progress hamper;
Wire of nerves suddenly tautening…
Or a patience into two snapping
Sometimes stupidly returning empty,
As the cursed still is clad in the dainty;
No life nor the like eroded
For having from unjust lips exploded.

there are calamity of swam of locusts
there all are attacked by the virus
coronavirus is attacking the inside living cell of organism
Oh! about this I'm true illiterate
poisonous airing, envenomed environment
make the procession of dead
though chemical-atomic experiment
pacifies the hypocrite imperialist
now-a-days every fierce (so called natural) disaster,
every dangerous pollution
obliges to read out these as the cursed from God!
how wondrous buffoon I am!
For whom the innocent dies
and whose name does the curse write!
I abhor myself
to float on this stupid obligation,
to float on the marrow-less praying
they say pray
I say pray for mental calmness
but need to do something best quickly
for the attacked and non-attacked all
Come; save the world from the envenomed air pollution
Come; instantaneously stop the chemical-atomic experiment
Come; save the world from the toxic hands of hypocrite imperialist

Mine ne'er to be, yet mine always;
Laura, spirit of dawn. Darkest night
Cannot hide thee nor obscure thy rays.
Though Black Death hath by his temporal right
Claimed thee, dost thou, my love , indwell this heart.
Though Charon's hammer this clay vessel break,
The winds ne 'er scathed by Time's envenomed dart
Shall of its pure content aye possession take
And spread abroad thy fragrance to all Man,
Fill the valleys and linger o'er the seas.
'Tis not my part all future times to scan,
But thankfully to muse by pastures, groves and leas,
Await thy returning, nightly count the hours
"Till I rejoice with singing birds and flowers."

Looked at the outside of steel window
Around in the dark, awesome feelings into the mid-night air
What the news was brought in the feelings!
Eyes of the orphan cat was flaming on the corridor.
Waiting for the light in the window
Dark vision comes down into my eyes by cycle-weariness
Down from one circle to another circle in time-blindness
Who stands here, the Islamic old man!
Frustrated vision!
History of terrorism was carved on his burnt body
He wants to say something!
A white-complexioned Christian young man stands into the neighbor circle,
Surprised eyes!
White-skinned history was printed on his blood-stained body
He wants to know something!
A dark-colored Hindu boy stands into the third circle,
Illusive vision!
History of third world is awakened on his envenomed body
He wants a little smile!
The old man, young man and boy are coming forward from the circles
Great distance... Near ...in front the room...
Who are you? No reply
They disappear into the tuberose equipped black and white photo of my father
Dad is smiling, I am senseless!
Tears are dropping from the eyes of our cat on the corridor.

Please appear again..
Nothing is perfect and pure
and nothing is good and clear
Everything awaits your arrival
and everything in this earth has to be changed
From the love of mother to wife’s affection
everything is envenomed
Dedication and thoughts of sacrifice
are things of the past,
some good things may be here and there
but man is less human and more insane,
Saints and monks have changed their path
to mint money for chasing luxury
in cars than taking care of fellow men
Temples have lost their sanctity and peace
and turned into plazas for profits.
Kanna, My Lord
Come to this world as a rescuer
Kanna, My ruler
come to this earth once more
as an emperor
to set things right
and pull us out from our plight…
