shabby rooster

A Poem by poddar kushal

 

Shabby rooster

 

The smell of burnt milk in the morning,

Parables of domesticities

Rise from the night of an unslept bed.

The tired ring of a sweating land-phone

That you cannot quite ignore and still…

Let it ring all the while the shower

Wasting your treasured dark exhaustion.

A shaft of light is waiting outside.

                       

Now again you have to watch your feet
