don’t try to be god

don’t try to be god when you are not even half an  angel

– god loves and god  forgives-  no matter what!  so  stop

going around pretending to be pious and  heavenly cos

not only do you have  a  dirty  backgarden  to  clean,  you

are a first class gossiper! that’s what i hate. that’s what

god hates..

soots

soots of you

scatters over

my roof

sieves the heat

sweltering

my being

let it collect..

usher in the springtide

and bundled us into inseparable  lovers..

backseat

our love

took a backseat

to car pooling

.

.

.

we did

we did

they did not

we are real

they are not

we are certain

they are not

let us forget them

before

we lose sight

of ourselves..

velvety embraces

I

laze on velvety embraces

yielding our understanding

slivers of pun hovers in afterthought

shadowy hideout usher new grounds

yet imbues nothingness

nondescript imagery..

.

.

.

emptiness

emptiness

drove   me

to   suicide..

.

.

.

helpless

I am holed

you can see  through  me

you can see inside of me

or you can fit  yourself  in

.

I am naked

you can  clothe  me

you can ignore  me

or you can hide me

.

I am helpless

you  can  keep  me

you can dump  me

or  give   me  away

.

whatever  it  is

no matter how

treat  me  kind

for I  am yours..

.

.

.

hunger

my hunger

made me bunk

at your doorstep..

.

.

false prophet

leveraging yourself with  the  innocence  of

the bible is fostering sin at the expense  of

god. the bible  preaches  love.  you  preach

dissension. look at the specks in your own

eyes.  you are nothing but a  false  prophet..

a chinese love story

scene 1 take 1:

willingly

she showed him how

to grind the ink stone

redefining its consistency

.

scene 2 take 1:

firmly but gently

she held his hand

guiding his brush stroke

applying grace with pressure

.

scene 3 take 1:

affirmatively

she helped him retell their story

no blots, no stains

all perfectly balanced

.

.

.

a splendid calligraphy

meaningful

reassuring

timeless..

.

CUT!

scented promises

I tiffin

every single bud

that blooms above my head

pink

white

yellow

blossoms of scented promises

engulf my pate

a new me

by you.

.

.

.

threshold of embrace

I would if you wish

I can  if  you would

but then you wont

.

yes, you are always with me

yet we meet but half the way

so, will your  feet ever cross

that  threshold of  embrace?

.

that  moment  won’t  come

where  we will wake  up  in

each  others   loving  arms

or do the  things others do

lest you  take  that  chance

.

will  you   cross

that  threshold?

.

will you?

.

yet survive through the breath of others..

my chinese new year valentine

perhaps

throughout my journey

there wasn’t anyone more deserving

.

perhaps

through all my encounters

there was never a true love

.

perhaps

throughout my lifetime

the angels told me to wait for you

.

perhaps its strange

but for the very first time

I am giving away a bouquet

.

to you

my chinese new year valentine..

.

forbidden city unfurled

I gaze in awe

as the forbidden city unfurled

where the silken grey looms once veiled

twirled within its garden of black mosses

behind its palace doors

lushing sweet fountains overflowed..

curiously, I dipped my fingers into that spring

tasting it

the pure juice melted my senses

longingly I canoed on

as it squeaks in delightful straddle

rhythming my stride

echoes of happiness soon resonate its grounds

an immense joy engulfed me..
