The Well-Tempered Atelier

The Well-Tempered Atelier

A Poem by Swagato Saha

On fragments' wait the kind stitching hand,
Now serves at the veil of day,
To every stray inconsistent strand,
It tends... to tempered array.

"Condemned to multitudes incoherent I -
Retrace my steps through dispersed ties,
In these depths who lay or in circles run,
Non-beings of ecstatic delusion!"

"Condemned to reasonless nethers I -
Pursue my vagrant parts untied,
Who deride, revel in fresh freedom's wake,
Here a gaze, a head, there a bloody neck!"

On fragments' wait the kind stitching hand,
Sublimes at unveil of day;
Whence wither the false, oddities disband,
To proud finitude give way.
