love, red rose and comic booksA Poem by vivekanandthe inability that pervades throughout ...
from behind the coconut tree household,
the sun comes up every morning chasing crows across the day sky i collect their shadows and lost feathers .. keep them in a private safe i think of mother, when she fed me with riceballs , sun was a cartoon in comicsbook nestled between two mountains , always unnamed .. i fantasise her warmth that first taught me the science of love i m searching for the lessons i didnt care to take notes on .. love travels like sunlight on water and drowns deep at nights.. while aeroplanes travel the star studded sky of a poet's cliched world.. the groundfloor boy rushes in for video games.. i picture him ten years later.. and want to hug him and cry.. but i m the secondfloor anna who knows everything who couldnt be weak.. the crow feathers are crawling out of my safe drawing on the night .. keep a red rose on my cemetry for the love i couldnt give this world © 2010 vivekanand |
