autumn fast faded
    watery eyes winter came
     efface  all brown hues...

The stains of our lives
   barely the wind takes away
       badly we efface...

After  peerless love,
                 efface fire of passion,
               lighting  cigarette......

In this world
   so obscured
   of brutality,
   someone will 
   efface this darkness,
    pass a message
    of white purity and draw
    a paradise... !...

As long as I have spirit
I will dance life
as life doesn't efface
I will always dance...
I dance with my  present peers  
and with the absent, i
celebrate life
and I don't need shoes
for that... !...

Wonder not, my kind friend, why crime

Flourishes in the fields of the human race.


It is because


The weed of evil we have not tried enough

From the garden of our hearts to efface!

I live under the stars
that efface on shine
of the sun...
I come from the night
full of insomnia
but I'm full of vigor
and also full of doubts and debts
contemplated by need
in this Olympic world...
Poetry appears anyway
in these fertile moments......

Living is tearing up,
         is to patch up "
        weave labyrinths and
        slip away... sew up
        patchwork paths... !

          living is drawing oneself
          on the screen of the world,
          sans pencil and no
          rubber 
          to efface...!...

Decades of sweat and toil
Turn a filthy hell-hole
The colossal disasters efface
Even the civilized human race

The bereaved throat sobs
Every eye sheds tears
Yet amid the weird graveyard
The tranquil Buddha sits unmoved!

(In tsunami-smitten Shrilanka 
  this was the scene in
  one of  the graveyards)...

Emotions ablaze, life blurred into a hazy glass,
Utterly opaque , I barely can see my own face,
Constantly steaming heart, is no memoir of brass,
Evanescent, loom as much again, can't efface,
Keeping me languish, why not substantiate !

A moment in the blink of eye,
When angel statues fall from grace
Flaming from the steel blue sky.
A moment in the blink of eye
The trailing embers wail and sigh;
Draw a portal that will efface.
A moment in the blink of eye
When angel statues fall from grace.

A quiet, tranquil space
Isolated from the human race
Shuttered from life's obsessive chase
Disappearing without a trace
No itinerary; no suitcase
Fleeting time to erase
Solitude, serenity to encase
A staggered, slow pace
Only my thoughts to embrace
All expectations, challenges efface
Billowy dreams my saving grace...

I saw thee there, stalwart without efface
as all life overcoming, you sat upon that space
some cavern of bestowing
filled rightly to the trace ~

As love in all God's owing
were perched to toll my fate,
Oh there beloved, knowing of life's ebb
and death's erase ~

just you ~ eternal, flowing . . . thy entity's new grace!...

F-ault or error to erase
R-emains as sickness to heal; 
I-t's best to fight the sin
T-hrough our ardor and 
Z-eal.

E-rror to erase is stubborn, 
D-ecember fifteenth Friday; 
U-ltimately lead a new life, 
C-ompletely obey the Lord's way.
A-bolish the mistake done, 
L-iquidate, eradicate, or efface; 
A-ll the time we all have
N-othing but error to
E-rase....

Where the world is wonderful, white and pristine,

meltable myriads of light crystal flakes efface

terrain once drab and grey. With iridescent sheen

the world unfolds before us now in satin grace.

How lovely and serene is this – our tranquil place.

Like an aerial butterfly flutter 
The same your lips are caressing my face 
And so my mind is lost in a clutter.

As a storm produced by butterfly grace
On environment acts out of control
So the sweet contact of lips can efface

My brain completely as a Champagne bowl.
A miracle is which makes me nutter
But it is love which just enters my soul.

As an aerial butterfly flutter
Renders my mind as lost in a clutter....

Listen to poem:

Ocean waves gently tickle the shattered shells,
Strident seagulls briefly pierce the balmy strand.
Luring  summer seems to work its magic spells
Tiny toes explore the gentle grains of sand.

All trivial concerns are soon washed aside
With every ebb and flow of the cleansing tide.
Those footprints left today sweeping waves efface
And pristine sands await golden dawn’s embrace.

Deep inner turmoil rising in layers of morose fog
Eternally she seems to scream putrid nothings
Put your mind to rest in somnambulist serenity
Reaching forever to only waylay breath
Efface my eyes does she of beatific maudlin
Sallow spirit filled with lackadaisical laughter 
She steals away grins and gifts glower
Inane is the patron of life she echoes
Onerous is this bombination of melancholy 
Needless are we the companions of she...

At the couch we intertwine
Mixing aroma with romance
The heavy knocked efface
As muteness make mockery of the moment
A still silent night stooped before her lower chamber
The veil was open
Fear blinked at me
But her eyes whisper, be calm, am not here to take advantage of you
As the moment of the top, bottom, and back lull
As my dreams drift into her spine
A naughty boy she hallowed
Keep dreaming, she echo, 
Time will tell
The second dream will tell

Aloneliness,
thickening fog
haze to look out of
safe in your bog

Aloneliness,
creating the space
for Laura to fill
her words to efface

Aloneliness,
time and again
taking me places
love’s never been

Aloneliness,
message so clear
thundering wasteland
silence in tears

Aloneliness,
faithful in pain
ever so near 
my eyes close again

Aloneliness,
most trusted friend
you that I count on
there till the end

(Villanova Pennsylvania: July, 2016)...
