My Poem still an open wound,
  unstitched by edits snare

My Heart Still Chimes

Poor in stock but rich in spirit,
  my clock does bow and sway

In rags and tatters all unstitched,
  with joy do I still pray

My flesh is weak, my home now burnt
   just embers to remind

That within this trouble and burning ash,
   on the hour
    —my heart still chimes

My Heart To Chime

Poor in stock yet rich in spirit,
  my clock does bow and sway

In rags and tatters all unstitched,
  with joy do I still pray

My flesh is weak, my home now burnt
   just embers to remind

Within this trouble and burning ash,
   on the hour
     —my heart still chimes

Lost My Tooth

I am a pick pocket


Unstitched pocket empty house
Plan to go for a date
Rain is high crash umbrella
Stale food is not in My life
I suvre with love to her
I have two pockets one is empty
Another I found my self that demands of her High like rocket booster a smile I hide My tooth in My pocket and called pick pocket.



With love all
Jagdish bajantri


Make Believing

Unstitched, you visit 
my navel, without 
warning. There were

bloody stains. I made
no surrender. The bullet
went very deep.

Sovereignty was at stake.
I sit like Buddha
under a raging moon –

invoking the spirits. An
irreverence bites me, scares
me to the bones.

Glitch. I lost the vision.
The nude version was
very pure, very sane.

Premium Member A chink started it

Listen to poem:
One tipple too far,
barely enough to notice
made the first tile sound—
morning lost its clean edges
as choices became fuzzy.

The path did not break,
it merely curved a little
toward softer ground—
resolve missed a few heartbeats
dominoes fell step by step.

By dusk the tale unfolded,
not a great calamity—
a trail of slip-ups
from loose threads left ungathered
that slowly unstitched the day.

The Question I Posed ….

If your Poem is still 
  an open wound

And you stitch it tight
  with editing

How…
  will it ever bleed free?

Frankenstein unstitched

You steal pieces of me and yet make me whole:
First, you remove the eyes
Every time you walk into the room
Then the ears
With the melodies of your voice, and your infectious laughter
Next you take the brain 
With all the thoughts, dreams, and memories of you
Then the skin
That longs for the warmth of your touch
And the feet
That want to follow every step you take
And finally

My heart 
That will only and always belong to you
