Hands On those digits
Backwards steps in forward turns

I am six feet tall
I am 59
I am not a monster
Don't hit me
I am extended in space-time

And sleep between day and night
Don't cheat me.
I move clockwise
But dream anticlockwise
Repeat me.
If you can
Meet me.

no blame angel falls,
convenience, not the hardships.

Dripping without mercy,

in the courtyard of Hyperpolitan,
bear provisions for their destiny.
Saying the odd, asking blessings

The lucky one is the drum of worship.
Not Ghazal, the love poem,
wisdom of the hall, resident of embers.
For haters, winning alone is enough....
