Long Knee deep Poems

Impossible mission to sleep on opposite side of marital bed...

when frolicking in the autumn mist

cheaply tricked out goo goo dolls
some resembling Indigo Girls,
one foo fighting beastie boy
unable to...

eyes too marred by melancholy to see the way out 
even as I gave in to the allure...

THE CLICHE SUBJECT MATTER
I tried to study you best way I could without weighing my infatuation

I added you to my thinking pattern, all...

Today 15th August, we are celebrating 
The 67th Independence day of India.



My country
Has yet to witness the glimpse

Virtue, thou art old wine of vague value
Admired even by vintners nary more,
Nor by the adherents taking time’s cue,
Ye decorate archaic ancient lore.

Watch new high-fliers that surface from shores—
Go-getters getting tonnes in rare offers,
Tiger stripes,...

Cry into my eyes again
I want this love to begin
Doesn’t matter who will win
Wonder where you been…
Don’t care if I am in pain
As long as you heal again
I know I did you wrong
Life is a...

A cool breeze touches my skin
And I close my eyes
A memory washes over me
Through my hair
And I smile
Slowly 
Lingering there

Standing there, here by a pile of clothes
Under the evening sun gently swaying from the sky
Inside...

The looking glass and the reflection are broken,
but it does not lie
He has spoken
Yet, I do not recognize this who stares back
The moon was high,
the time was nigh,
after that, I would have to make my...

I search for words
To describe this feeling...
After you told me
You hate me...

I remember when 
I went swimming in the ocean
One day in January...
Ice was curled in elaborate design
Of wind-blown swirls on the sand...
Snowflakes mixed with...

Amongst the oaks and the maples and shrubbery so green
Runs a translucent flow, a stream so pristine
It's meandering contours hugging the land
Takes me back to the day, we met unplanned

The sky was pale blue on...

In midst of night,
When I was deep in slumber,
The memory rattled,
Eyes sunk with fear,
Saw the houses crumble,
The trees tremble,
The thunder storm made me nimble,
The ocean in fumble,
Tried to reach me and hug me in grumble.

I...

Late at night, caressed by nocturnal howls
I strode across streets of snow
A gentle tune whistled from my pockets
As the frosty breeze kissed my exposed nose

Knee deep in my final stand
I claimed old thrones that had...

in which the secret of all time will be revealed

I promised to never lose again.

I kept my heart safe locked up away hidden and threw away the key.
Ever needing to catfish the fish because to me there was too much fish in the sea.

You locked yourself inside a hole
And you threw away the
Key
You got so lost in the bottle that you 
Forgot just how to breathe
You're waiting for some saving grace
So you can fight off all your
Demons
But someday...

Every ringside observer knows,
Truth don’t pull no punches
Getting down dirty in the earthy trenches,
reveal who the real
firmament workers are

When a pile of brown waste
is coming out of
somebody’s backdoor mouth
Don’t let ‘em try to shovel
those swarm...

HEBRIDES

Big waves crash on a Hebrides shore,
Horizontal rain slashes the rocks.
There’s no shelter here, not even a crack,
There’s no wood here, and nothing to burn:
Frost giants hurl slivers of  ice.
The sun will rise twelve...
