Vision

Once, twice its beauty unfolds
The dark moment that chooses to live
Between my foul breath,eschews all laughter
Five virgins lay inwards

Each a parable, stoned and clad in stone
Marbled and cast in marble
Costly, yet desire seems to break free
Until desire has no price

Served in dual portions for contrast
Her life is black and white
A baby born and a child forfeited
One taken care of, one dreaming her life
For her

Living life inwards and inside out
Hair disheveled, and unkempt
A rolling head gathers no
Moss

Silent gravy .twirls in taste
Groans in the bedevilment of the soup
This is not the soul!
Protest, salty with the tears ..
Loses character

Detached like organs from my body
My lung breathes in tandem , searches for the other
my stomach groans for more ..greedy audience
The heart, that loads one breast more with the opus
Of the symphony its trying to sing

Sigh beautiful sigh your eyes!
Like algae growing on the wall
Like the lotus, that’s appreciated and devoured
One more day.. lived through the eyes of my,

Bete noire

PS- inspired by "jaanemann jaanemann tere do nayan" ...credit where its due :)
