wishing my neighbors would move away
...I keep my alicorn hidden from prying eyes
she only leaves the yard when there are darkened skies
my neighbors to the east are prejudiced against magical beings
intolerant of differences, five unli...

A coin gawks at a grand big note - 1
...Last night I dreamt I was one-rupee coin
Who met a two-thousand rupee crisp note
In a rich man’s pocket, looking so keen
At the exalted worthy of my vote.
The note asked: you find anything funny?...

My intent is wordless
...In the wilderness of bewilderment,
Sculpting different sorts of thoughts,
Where intent fades, needing no interment,
And truth exudes from all its rots.
There lies the stark resolve for my futur...

Warm waters in the blue distance
Clarity still no closer than when I first arrived
How can I feel filled with unbridled joy
But still feel hollow empt...

What Gives Us Away
...Nobody likes to be studied too closely,
under the microscope we all display
a ridiculous, multicellular idiocy.
What gives us away
is how we squirm as the light seeks us out,
or scurry behind ...

As We Metamorphose

Fear not, you may still survive
Deep within hides a beam of hope
Take a breath and slowly revive
The things that don't kill you

The sharp snap of branches masked the bark of distant dogs
...
A stolen life. A split-second decision.
Disorganised thoughts, jumbled—
Tangled around an anaesthetised cortex.
Clocks mockingly ticking,
Ticking down inevitability,
As a lone fly buzzes r...

only the wish that our love
could be again.
The air was bone-dry,

Blood Eagle

Command me to kneel
For what you know are my final moments.
(Surely you know this will kill me)

Split me down the middle-
Clean.
And I open.
You rip ...

Deprived of your love
...Like a raging river barreling toward an arid basin,
sediment collects inside a hardening heart.
Weighing heavy, eyelids flutter over drowning maculas;

A Warrior Mentality

so to speak –
donning our armor
of daily fashion;
tinted shades closing
off soul-windows,
concealing from
prying eyes of inquisitive
