EcoPolitical Responses

Resonant empathy

I mull mortality 
thru lens crafted occipital orbs
regarding a better future
experience sing a space oddity –

bipedal hominids replete roof lee wax
during a...

Along the corridors both in white overcoats,
I think that’s what unifies us, what charges the environment
Even with light shakes and occasional jades
With larks pretence to just keep the handshake a little longer
Every meeting moment, both...

Lord Krishna came 
Much later than Rama,
According to the Puranas.
But in my life it is the other way round:
Krishna, my Guru, came into this world 
Much before I did.

He is my friend, philosopher, and guide—

I wonder why
this perennial topic of death
does not interest me

Even my own
evokes cold detachment
rather than invoking warm 
heated attachment to denial
anger
disappointment
body betrayal.

Death cast in dull shadow
by my fascination with my own mortal
double-boundaried life

Which came from...

As marriage was the portal demanded and perceived.

Cameras 


The root of my agony
Lies beyond this dollar store
To my foremothers and forefathers
Shackled by thieves
Stolen from the graces of Africa 

Their feet once light to
The drum's rhythmic complexity
