Premium Member Sequestration
I never told anyone how my ears reverberate in a silent room.
The whirring drone ever present, a conquistador of my private spaces.
This is my cohabitation with an industrial generator.
But I’ve graduated from the torment.

Lovely enchantress of cyberspace

Betwixt and between us
lies an immense untraversable realm
of never knowable forbidding possibilities
quixotic, rhapsodic, sympathetic, telepathic...,
where tantalizing, scandalizing, and revolting, 
nevertheless promising fantasies beckons
buzzfeeding, crowdsourcing, dovetailing,
earthshaking, foo fighting, hashtagging,
jump/kick starting, twittering

Underneath all the layers
Of tradition
Of religion 
Of philosophy
Of reason and understanding
I smolder
In passion's pleasure bed of red
Paroxysms of pleasure
Emanate from my core
Searing the shroud
Flames of fantasy's feast burn
Yearning I yearn and lie in wait
In my...

Incantation to you
Manifesting the Phantom 
with the Hysteria Paroxysm Blues

Hellfire Club got nothin’ on you
Hot hysteria paroxysms 
flying on your broom

Getting Up
For ever so long 
I lived in utopia
Thinking the world was perfect
Believing things went according to plan
I was quite too young
To understand that I was wrong

For as time went on
I saw life as it really...

Black Night
"You don't belong here!"
They said. 
They doubted the authenticity 
Of my identity. 
Black night bade me come in, 
Provided I sang a song. 
Paroxysms of regret filled my song; 
The monotonous song from my ektara....

For the Honour of the Regiment
It was a desperate situation,
Regimental honour at stake,  
Decision urgently needed
As to what actions to take.
The Colonel was in paroxysms
The RSM was spitting blood
The M.O. was overworked and
Things just weren't looking good.

An outbreak of...

Summa cum laude in study and sport

When the Sun Lashes Out
Enjoy your techno-toys while you can;
As you frantically surf the internet
In a vain, pathetic attempt to "keep up"
With meaningless jumbles of jibber-jabber
Which you consider essential information.

All those gotta-have gadgets you crave
Like some new kind of...

When Our Stories Bled Together
When our stories bled together
Eternity nodded gleefully
unfolding our broken grounds,
howling voids and lost alliterations…

My perfect imperfections
slipped down at my feet,
this intoxicated Existence
mended my subdued Heart
in spasmodic recurrences…

I have been seeking for You
Inside millennial dips of...

Rose-Red Delusional Grandeur
poetically fractured retractions

scribbling braille,

 dipped in holy water's resolution,
compromising statements
     of disbelief's proclamation
spinning music the color

I Thoroughly Enjoy Dialogue With Second Continuity
Such pipedream regarding
winning bucket loads of cash,
would make monetary woes
in an instantaneous flash
mine dentures no longer
will futilely grind and gnash,
cuz I would undergo oral surgery
and simultaneously acquire

mush sought after gumption,
where dental implants
could offer million dollar...

Am I walking too swiftly, leaving you behind?
Am I descending into a black void with no guiding light?
Should I embrace the radiance and suppress my fondness for darkness?
Where do dreams find their sanctuary?

Toothache
`Toothache

The festering morsel 
Festooned in buccal cavity 
Triumphant against the crown
A queen in pearly finery
Whose decaying beauty 
Succumbs to the invader
In eroded submission

With slow intrusive action
Eating at her very core 
Its acidic weapon easing on
