Long Immodest Poems

Sharing my translation of a famous poem (Sadharan Meye) written by Rabindranath Tagore, who won Nobel Prize in Literature in 1913. It's one of his story-like poems, written in Bengali, which is one of the...

Last evening I noticed another disconcerting Trump headline.
This felt and smelled more like a deadline
for disintegration
than a lifeline,
a bootstrap, if you will,
toward integrity of health and regenerative safety,
which I thought was front and center
in our...

Once upon this time
I was listening to the Christian Fathers
retell traditional stories
of God's election and predestination.

Predestination
is like being born into royalty,
power,
privileges of humane Earth's regenerative grace.

Election is more democratic.
Selection based on God's vote for mercy,
apparently,
because...

I find it amusing
on this perpetually empowering Election
impassioned Selection EarthDay

To wonder why
we have bedroom communities
and yet not live and thrive communications
for eco-political dialogue,
and not so much partisan
disempowering debate,
against co-empowering green governance,

Why not more nakedly
and transparently...

Like Judas- Everyone thinks my walk with Christ is real,
Deceiving myself with all these legalistic rules…

Catherine Bryan
1838-1918

And ye, faithful friends of Whittier’s Quaker enclave,
In stout shock, thy anger scolds the town,
For ye know, in heart and soul, 
Thee and this old maid...

To be a thing that no one wants 
is to live a life of woe
Those backward looks, anger mistook

A faint hearted silhouette, 
Of a life once thought,
Surveyed the silent terrain 
Of a forest plot.
Searching for creeds
In the bones of deeds
Her net came up empty 
Only whispers were caught.
A canon of dreams,
Battles of air,
Toothless...

I used to be special,
Now I’m just me,
Once believed in fate and goodness,
Instead just a pie in the sky.
A fool’s paradise,
Misconceived with empty promises,
Bright eyed and smiles,
Deprived and beguiled
Living a masquerade ball,
Disguised in what everyone...

The sermons priests preach
Through speech,
The child instructors teach
With speech,
The business men their partners reach
Via speech,
The saving shouts at a child in pond with leech
And requests to recreate on a beach
In speech
All powerfully elevate speech,
Distinguishing this...

Grasping, clutching onto air as we be.
Daunting, dreary thoughts I see.
Happiness, joy words that we show.
Life, love things we do not know.

Immodest mouse (though sheepishly I drive):
Cheese-poof ambition traps shred Plexiglas; 
Life’s tint is circus; freaks pedaling thrive;
My spinner’s stopped, feline-stripped out of gas.

Cradled in moon’s ambitious pseudo-shine,
Not that I could, see I’ve nowhere to go;
Clawed...
