The Bee sucks honey
Engraves a blue elegy
Flower's death is near

wish to sleep
not to die;
wish to fly
not to cry

root to vertex
not any text;
the breath’s whip
in life’s fax

feast of end
implanting trend;
in whining gyre
swiveling blood gland

You suck me 
With effortless ease
Deep into the gyre of your charms
Every single time, yes, even though
I couldn't be more aware
I ought to know better.
You live to do that to me...
And I love it!...

Mind twisting and turning
Visions teasing and taunting
These delusions return once more
Driving me to insanity with no cure
Pounding in my head insistently beating
No respite in view no relief perceiving
More and more I despise this gyre
Again and again it leads me to surrender...

come here,
go there

write here,
write there

this is fair;
write it clear;
do not keep a bar
on poetic gyre!

No; no madam,
No sire
 
you, he and I
we, all are 
everywhere

no dictator
can interfere,
this is poetic world
poets are always free and fair

A big bang has occurred
The boogie of creation recurred!

On a cord in a womb, 
Life revolves around it-
Or a lover’s tomb,
The mourner rotates around it.

This gyre spins from habit
It’s a design without wit.
My tongue wags profanities?
Then explain your inanities!

If love is not a gain,
Then, why its loss a pain?...

Reality
Realistic life
Truth
Materialistic world
Nature
not static,
not unwavering for long or everlasting

truth always varies
person to person
place to place
time to time

stability of this real life
has no limitation

fixation of the materialistic world
always spends time in the gyre of evolution,
revolution of changing
varieties there are in that materialistic lifespan...

Loosely the transparent leaves of memory fall
Limply I accede reminiscent of a limp rag doll
Slowly I invoke this insistent yearning inside
This plethora of countless emotions derived
Incenced by the summon of one depraved
Sadistic venom inciting abhorrence enraged
Progressively anointing obvious camouflage 
Spinning uncontrollably in a neverending gyre
Vicious piercing screams so enragingly dire
Jaded I surrender to this uninhibited emotion
Sentient I resume my unkempt decision...

Deprived of sleep
the mind revolves
in a slowly turning gyre
of thoughts, 
capturing the past
and future
in its spiral
to feed its want
and taunt the will.
Dawn becomes 
a cruel mirage dancing
on a distant horizon.

An exhausted self
is sieved through the gauze 
of a semi conscious dream
as it masquerades as sleep,
sending bits to float off
across the room
until a sudden noise
or a sharp pain 
brings the mind back 
into the wide awake 
prison of itself…..again.
