quest

another quest
another day

a loner path
waives away

history drools
by awkward shrubs

huddled together, in
the desert's way


-Anant

attainable

trudge the muddy waters
of 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.

Notional Pie

a kiss missed
is akin to 

the notional pie
you would want to

but you could not
consume.

Poem

the dark
it sifts down the 
Chimney

the invisible
unavoidable void

claws at you

you nod
and walk on.

Flow

nostalgia is ache
a prison of the mind

we are hard-wired to be
miserable

through our knowing


the ancients knew it, and offered
symbols into the flowing river

to let go of what
we carry; 

what we perceive to be our
ultimate reality.
