Magnified Myself
An inarticulate artist,
I wanted to paint
the lone life’s landscape,
effervescent,
the construed course
of a river called desire
unrestrained,
meandering its way
in self-possessed pattern,
I yearned.
In prime youth
I thought I owned

Perfect Path
As I watch the pendulum of the wall clock
Continuously swinging back and forth
A sarcastic smile comes to my lips
To be or not to because of my frustration
From where I came and for what
And what is my ultimate destination
Not sure what to do next, I sit still in a chair
With both arms supporting the chin
Undecided, confused,

My Small Dreams Magnified Manifold
My small dreams magnified so manifold,
the wide wings of soaring desire they grew,
the miniscule mind could no longer hold,
turning to birds in ardent air they flew.
They sailed to horizon rising anew,
through the clefts of darkened clouds floating cold,
where silence drizzled with the twilight hue,
my small dreams magnified so

Magnified Beauty
MAGNIFIED BEAUTY
On the wings of a dream-carrier she flew
Surprised, enclosed in a shining glass capsule
Landed in a strange terrain she never knew
A fairyland where things are big and beautiful.
The sunset sky splashes all the hues of its color
Butterflies soak, paint motifs on broad wings
In a trance she looks outside the glass barrier
In her ears

Magnified Dawn
Through the initial magnified eye of vital dawn,
Pierced that long powderkeg wick underneath;
Mercilessly flammable, the combustible dusts candle flamed,
Ran anguish on path with every tongue,
With passages & persuasions, actions & consequences, diametric forces,
Everything that remained beyond all decisions charred,
Engulfed bigger, grander flames slid along
The gnarled braid of fates’ twisting

Appreciation Magnified
I received a gift yesterday
It came in the form of words
Still it was so much more
From a friend
A woman I have never met
Who has taken the time to know
My thoughts
My heart
she has gone beyond the obvious
Read my synapses
My mind sparking across many pages
Understanding
Thinking my thoughts
Feeling my pain
Laughing at my jokes
Clever comments exchanged
Mutual appreciation
I read
