a series of judgement days

a series of judgement days

A Poem by vivekanand

another  time you walk out my door 
that was never closed ..
your eyes are on me,
i turn into shades of colors
myriad and unnamable..
is it your color screens 
or my chameleon being..

i never wished i knew..

another time you pass that judgement and wait for my eyes..
waiting to see what i would become
under the slowly descending hammer 
and broken fountain pen..

i shrink away as a snail would..

away from your pincers 
into the web of my own questions 
ceaselessly knit by a spinster woman
in her choiceless loneliness..

with a throw of your head, 
another time you walk out the door...
you walk out on me..
 away from me..

as i watch enchanted, for the one thousandth time , 
madly in crazy love..

and in vain, i try to walk out on myself 
through the door that was never closed..
through the door that was never closed

the core came from the song LOVE HER MADLY by the doors.. and something from my real life inspired the web around it
