1.<\/strong>VOLCANO<\/strong><\/h5>
Life \u2014<\/strong><\/h5>

\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>

an urge to go<\/strong><\/p>

to deeper recesses<\/strong><\/p>

but annulling force<\/strong><\/p>

of buoyancy doesn\u2019t relax<\/strong><\/p>

until volcano erupts.<\/strong><\/p>

Agastya gone to south<\/strong><\/p>

weary Vindhyas await<\/strong><\/p>

in dolorous hope of return.<\/strong><\/p>

t gushes to satiate<\/strong><\/p>

heat of the soil,<\/strong><\/p>

\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>

enthralling melody simmers<\/strong><\/p>

on the waves:<\/strong><\/p>

it is mermaid.<\/strong><\/p>

Quest is over.<\/strong><\/p>

Storm is calm.<\/strong><\/p>

~*~*~*~<\/strong><\/p>

\u00a02.<\/strong>THE RIVER AND THE BOAT<\/strong><\/h5>

\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>

Last month<\/strong><\/p>

she was weak and tender,<\/strong><\/p>

yet did not let me ford;\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 <\/strong><\/p>

the boat ferried me<\/strong><\/p>

to the other shore.<\/strong><\/p>

Now, she is he<\/strong><\/p>

and I fear to ford;<\/strong><\/p>

the boat ferries me<\/strong><\/p>

to the other shore.<\/strong><\/p>

River chameleon<\/strong><\/p>

of self; boat engenders<\/strong><\/p>

faith and hope.<\/strong><\/p>

~*~*~*~<\/strong><\/p>

\u00a03. <\/strong>PERISHING MAN<\/strong><\/h5>

\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>

As I dare peep out<\/strong><\/p>

through the window,<\/strong><\/p>

eyes reel<\/strong><\/p>

at the sight of a whirligig<\/strong><\/p>

nourishing<\/strong><\/p>

in the lee of pythons \u2026<\/strong><\/p>

Headless bodies<\/strong><\/p>

march in<\/strong><\/p>

a mute procession<\/strong><\/p>

leading to a maze \u2026<\/strong><\/p>

Terrible cries follow<\/strong><\/p>

in an uproar<\/strong><\/p>

without human shores.<\/strong><\/p>

Numberless snakes<\/strong><\/p>

leave holes in Siberia<\/strong><\/p>

to live in cities \u2026<\/strong><\/p>

Strange! Can\u2019t shut eyes.<\/strong><\/p>

Ignorance and greed \u2026<\/strong><\/p>

Perishing Man?<\/strong><\/p>

~*~*~*~<\/strong><\/p>

\u00a04. <\/strong>THIS PROMISING AGE<\/strong><\/h5>

\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>

In this antagonistic society<\/strong><\/p>

contradictions<\/strong><\/p>

tend to become acute<\/strong><\/p>

with unsympathetic attitude.<\/strong><\/p>

Civilization cannot reverse gears<\/strong><\/p>

nor present to past.<\/strong><\/p>

What, then, do we expect<\/strong><\/p>

in this jungle<\/strong><\/p>

of automation?<\/strong><\/p>

Vats-man is captive,<\/strong><\/p>

machines instruct,<\/strong><\/p>

calculate and infer<\/strong><\/p>

achievements<\/strong><\/p>

of Homo sapiens.<\/strong><\/p>

Bits of reality<\/strong><\/p>

concatenated together give rise<\/strong><\/p>

to a new set of ideas.<\/strong><\/p>

What other role awaits<\/strong><\/p>

insignificant cog<\/strong><\/p>

in this robot culture<\/strong><\/p>

where soul defies<\/strong><\/p>

the principle of metempsychosis?<\/strong><\/p>

and enters into<\/strong><\/p>

wires, screws, transistors,<\/strong><\/p>

magnets and diaphragms<\/strong><\/p>

to help, interpret and amuse?<\/strong><\/p>

Where has gone<\/strong><\/p>

logic of inventive thought?<\/strong><\/p>

Fissures of cerebrum dive deep<\/strong><\/p>

into the waves<\/strong><\/p>

of computers and genetic code<\/strong><\/p>

in a venture<\/strong><\/p>

to unriddle the skein.<\/strong><\/p>

Estranged soul entangles itself<\/strong><\/p>

in the criss-cross of vibrations.<\/strong><\/p>

Entirely new features prop up<\/strong><\/p>

The land nourished by<\/strong><\/p>

Synthetic culture and ideals.<\/strong><\/p>

Plethora demoniac<\/strong><\/p>

descends down on the earth<\/strong><\/p>

like a beam<\/strong><\/p>

to impregnate<\/strong><\/p>

the abortive eye;<\/strong><\/p>

compassions, pity, sympathy<\/strong><\/p>

face retreat<\/strong><\/p>

before hypocrisy and cynicism<\/strong><\/p>

Eros \u2013 the fairest \u2013<\/strong><\/p>

dominates the Murdoch\u2019s scene<\/strong><\/p>

where human crucibles<\/strong><\/p>

boil and transpire<\/strong><\/p>

and fall down with rain<\/strong><\/p>

promiscuously indiscernible<\/strong><\/p>

like a chemical whole.<\/strong><\/p>

Nature has been cruel<\/strong><\/p>

to the honest individual.<\/strong><\/p>

Painful cries rend<\/strong><\/p>

the sky and ocean alike<\/strong><\/p>

on the pitiless planet<\/strong><\/p>

where to do ill is the sole delight.<\/strong><\/p>

Can clouds save any more<\/strong><\/p>

the blistering skin,<\/strong><\/p>

breeze balm<\/strong><\/p>

the parched mind,<\/strong><\/p>

the marmorial wind<\/strong><\/p>

stop the bleeding<\/strong><\/p>

of throbbing heart?<\/strong><\/p>

Thoughts peal in echoes<\/strong><\/p>

and defile the flow<\/strong><\/p>

of one serene and tranquil idea<\/strong><\/p>

Amazon deep and Mississippi long<\/strong><\/p>

and bound to leave<\/strong><\/p>

as clearly as one can<\/strong><\/p>

without having any kinds<\/strong><\/p>

to hand the sores of misery.<\/strong><\/p>

Individual bound<\/strong><\/p>

to lose moral identity<\/strong><\/p>

on the verge of catastrophe.<\/strong><\/p>

Ordinary time flows into<\/strong><\/p>

Bhrigu time.<\/strong><\/p>

Unknowingly centuries know<\/strong><\/p>

yet feel not so.<\/strong><\/p>

What is time?<\/strong><\/p>

Who cannot tell?<\/strong><\/p>

\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>

All know. Yet nobody knows.<\/strong><\/p>

In this affluent society<\/strong><\/p>

watch and sit, sit and watch<\/strong><\/p>

before the signaling knob;<\/strong><\/p>

morn to eve, eve to morn<\/strong><\/p>

sometimes<\/strong><\/p>

on the cross-roads of crises<\/strong><\/p>

minutes are stretching longer<\/strong><\/p>

than hours and days;<\/strong><\/p>

years contracted to seconds.<\/strong><\/p>

Passions degenerated into<\/strong><\/p>

mechanized smiles<\/strong><\/p>

while coming and going<\/strong><\/p>

lips frigid to flowery kisses<\/strong><\/p>

inside the tube.<\/strong><\/p>

Brooks and parks<\/strong><\/p>

mysteriously disappeared<\/strong><\/p>

in the forced isolation<\/strong><\/p>

as glass acquaria stepped<\/strong><\/p>

into a room of hundredth<\/strong><\/p>

storey steel-house.<\/strong><\/p>

The unique individual<\/strong><\/p>

steadily disappears<\/strong><\/p>

at the hapless fate of RNA<\/strong><\/p>

and the soil is ready<\/strong><\/p>

for a bumper crop of deformities.<\/strong><\/p>

A business-minded mother<\/strong><\/p>

decides to be pregnant<\/strong><\/p>

for those who do not want<\/strong><\/p>

to lose their shape.<\/strong><\/p>

Neuromycin frees the brain<\/strong><\/p>

from habitual reflexes<\/strong><\/p>

and switches off reaction<\/strong><\/p>

and drops blank<\/strong><\/p>

unconscious schizoid problems<\/strong><\/p>

of unreal schizoid individuals<\/strong><\/p>

of this promising age<\/strong><\/p>
