Poetry

It’s one of those nights When I feel like a frazzled rag Spread over my bed Shriveled With a mound of random pieces That form my life Pastels here Laptop there A bag of chocolate chips… But I feel like that dainty rag again Defying the vehement pull of the earth Like any moment It’s...

The Hollow Men – TS Eliot

Listening to The Hollow Men almost on a loop these days. So, I felt like sharing with you too… https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WSRXinuM-GI&t=3s There’s so much to say about this poem, but my every word fails against listening to it in silence with eyes closed. Try it. P.s. the video is a bit trippy, only listen to it.

Middle of Nothingness

One of those vacuous days When your mind comes to a sharp halt There’s no left or right You are existing in the middle of everything Or middle of nothingness And it’s not the eye of the storm When all the elements and emotions Are flying frantically around you It’s like Being suspended in a...

Saturday

One day A million pending errands Mystic expectations from Dad Unrealistic deadlines from bosses Of assignments, fantastic What do I do With a day half perished Do I do something artistic Or follow the laundry list And make it choristic I had to go shopping Which I hate Stylistic friends are busy And I’m lazy...

Insane…

I wander again Blue sky, sunflowers Gray clouds and rain I pull my crazy mind out of the muck Wash it under a stream But in vain... It's too late for resurrection Darkness swallowed me alive This is my story, an eternal bane I still wander Holding my dripping mind In my cold hands I...

C’s home…

They say we turn into a star When our soul floats away Unshackled from our form Like dainty feathers of a dandelion Crumbling to the lightest winds But … We both knew Stars belong to the night And get swallowed by heat When I’m being torched In the broad day light So, You flew right...

Storm

I lay hereSprawled over Under the cold ashen skyOn the dampness of the shore My broken wings Fanned out in a circleMy heartbeat Fainting in my hollow core Winds numbing and hurting My tips and toesWaiting to be swallowed aliveI can’t fight anymore The giant is galloping nowSeething tyranny in its eyesOur gaze meet for...

2021 Recap – Art & Poetry

The email from google map timeline was a reminder that 2021 have actually been quite eventful. Our mind focuses on the negative events and we often forget the positive ones sooner. So I went through my photo gallery and blog since this is where my life is most documented, in words and images. It’s not...

Paper mache doll

And suddenly I’m that shell of a person With my soul sucked out of ears All there’s left is a paper mache doll Hollow Confused Floating around One room to other A blind walk on a memorized loop I haven't lost vision But still I can’t see Like there is a veil behind my own...

When it’s over..

I'm staring into the night Black jewel encrusted giants circling me As if Its an amphitheater And i'm going to perform I can see moon peeking from the edge of a giant I'm burrowed in my couch My eyes stretch in horror when i'm not horrified It's first punch of reality right in the face...
