The Mayflower

A gossamer thin ocean hits low notes today.  Only the lower ones , the hapless sullen lover. The nonchalant up - above couldn’t care less. 

Wind bleats boat creaks pet dogs merry-hop in the sea-wind.These shores they say have seen the Mayflower come-through.

And yet, several hundred others have sunk to the merciful bottom. Going down is hard albeit low effort. 

Sense drowns deep in me or perhaps it’s the nippy wind . Like a fool though I toss away my shoes and walk 

Barefoot on the beach, soft sand and silken touch and all.

Notional Pie

a kiss
missed
is akin to 

the notional pie
you would want to


but couldn't
consume.

Mir's Poems

back then
when we were 
obsessed with 

poems of Mir

a cloud of melancholy
would shroud 
us in

the sadness, inexplicable
yet beautiful in
some bygone way

and how we sat through the
hours
and how the hours 
lingered for us

with us

much like they did in
Mir's poems.


-Anant




quest

another quest
another day

a loner path
waives away

history drools
by awkward shrubs

huddled together, in
the desert's way


-Anant

attainable

men and women of
our times

we trudge the muddy waters
of our circumstance

in search of 
obscure individual

glories

some un-realized splendor
a certain summit
shines in the 
distance

always visible, yet
never attainable. 


- Anant

lethargia

 lethargia

some the rain
ushered in

some the
existential
boredom

a lulled knock
on the windowpane.

Meanings

minuscule drops
of water
as old as time
itself

in them, I find
meanings, new and

never occurred.
