Haiku
anthills in the fields
super colonies built by
thousands of workers;
Ramakrishna Chowdary Jasti

Tear gas canisters and rubber bullets
are hurled at their direction,
yet they rise again and again,
like anthills cropping out from earth.
The rains normally beat them, but keep
on rising and rising from the ground…
Gifts of love grace Spring cabins' still-shivering mantle
Intoxicant scents wafted into every corner -- covenantal
Luscious colors allure tempt Hope in dreamer's hearts
~ 'Till faded petals peel from sere stems, shuttled into anthills
horizontal landscapes with anthills
ants plant poison pills on mulch trails
solar breezes inspire physicists
the universe works overtime
earth dances with oceans
becomes desert without mulch
the universe doesn't work anymore
poisoned ants occupy dead planets
Endless Chase
Dreams broken
Anthills of fear lurking
Failing forward
Nothing to lean on
The walls crack
Sorrows rack
Musing dryness
Patience
Paling
Oceans of nothingness travailing
Hopelessness hatching
Triggers pulling
Death beckoning
Casket lower
Thresholds folding
Priest dusting dust
Vanity looming
Eternity an endless chase...
Written by Awoh Kingsley
On a little desk in a dusty room
I sat and dreamed things strange
flying as birds did around school
talking as parrots with foreigners
capturing images with cakes and bread
eating worms cooked, served in plates
talking using cockroaches tied to wires
tying my neck with gold- colored ropes
working in anthills built with glasses
I think I saw it while in Primary School
Civil war :
Again you are visiting
the childhood.A green pond.
Smoke filled eyes ask, what
was a home ?
A black city of white hills.
You were climbing on dreams
to reach a baby moon.
And the night
was very long, like a bad name
you cannot spell.
The anthills, fireflies and
snakes. You are still lost
in cobwebbed age.
Pawned :
After books there were no other
tales.
Satish Verma
anthill and insects
million lives living in ground
trekkers with boots walk
