Unpredictably Predictable
Feelings, like storms, disrupt the inner peace and leave the future uncertain
Hopes, like mountains, seen and far away to reach
Desires, like eternal, keeps running and stop’s nowhere
Thoughts, like lightning, shine, disappear, and keeps coming
Tears, like rains, clear the clouds and leave it’s
Sign
Life, like ocean meets river, people comes from various channels with

Helpless
a ladybug flailing away on her back
a lad gets a whipping in a shack
each helpless in his own way…
to whom and for what do they pray

Conductor
Cross over legs step from the train
Taking the handsome man to Amsterdam
Shoes and socks stuffed in the pockets
Feet conspicuously shrouded in mystery
Hidden away under advisement of mother and others
Under the umbrella of heavy rain born from clouds
Uncovered in a dance of fog swirling into darkness
Where suspicions point in all directions
To

Time Stops
Time stops.
The vile hands receive their recompense.
Time stops.
The fallen rise again.
Time stops.
Prayers ascend to the inner court.
Time stops.
The door opens to the needy.
Time stops.
The night summons the cocooned.
Time stops.
There is a battle between two worlds.

Somewhere
I saw you there
sitting alone in a corner
while our classmates played.
The look in your eyes—
longing to belong
but fearing to fall.
We were seven then,
in all the chaos,
still finding our places.
You noticed me or not,
I never knew,
but I saw you smile
when you saw the chocolate
I hid in your bag.
Then… one day, your seat was empty.
The next day,

Where Eyes Hurl Darts
I step into a room of smiles
whose eyes hurl darts at me
What’s concealed
never revealed
Shaking inside
I wade cautiously upstream

She Shuffled the Stars
We have seen you before, Seeker—
in the candlelit corners of a thousand lifetimes,
eyes heavy with questions,
hands trembling with the weight of tomorrow.
Maya sat before you,
her kitchen dressed in black,
as if the walls themselves were keeping secrets.
Steam rose from coffee cups like incense,
and between sips, she touched the deck—
a living thing in her hands.
She shuffled the

What Is The Word?
What Is The Word?
This is our lives: moment to moment; thought to thought, image to image; we build reality from our dreams.
The truth eludes us;
Nothing defines the moment
We are here, then not.

Normalcy
A return to Normalcy
As night comes, all are at ease
We turn into slumber
In the electric comfort
Of artificiality that is our lives
We revel in the false sense of our own
Modern conveniences
We forget the thin veil between
Our electric life, truth of nature’s brutality
Of our existence, we believe we are
Immune to the

SOUTHERN CROSSES I
Electric Line's sway,
spider webs of industry
along a rocky lane under
a hot southern sun, cicada…
cry high, into the crystal blue sky
We are a ghost nation
of Man’s hypocrisy
crossing shadows under a hard
noonday sky.
The empty road under the leaning
Electric crosses of civilization
Shadows fall, carving silhouettes into
Upon hitting noonday ground
Humanity lost

empty spaces
Ghosts that haunt empty spaces
Like objects in cabinets
that drift on window pains
As light out places the things
left in the corners of
attics and In-between
the walls and hidden faces,
memories like objects
that linger as bookmarks
to someone's history,
yellowing pages,
trinkets and toys,
old books and broken vases
sit like old

WHITE CARS
White Cars Haunt
My dreams awake in wasteful
Flights fantastic blight
Each headlight flares
Restless into the outer fields of memory
The oppressive, hot, humid twilight
Passing out of my sight
They haunt my wakening eyes
Along the way, hollow roads of soul
Down endless maps of history
The endless engines thumm
An echo old still lasts, sitting
White cars are empty

a walking void
lost to my sight
In a world of noise, we move
In endless plains, shadows lie
Footfall echoes n dies
Sounds travel past my night
A void endless inside
Walking trail of broken stars
Cast in darkness deep n beyond
Beautiful n terrifying
A walking void of oblivion’s
Objects defining all as it was
The light cascades, heavenly charade
A void
