Swimming in still waters

06/06/2010

Walking with the same pace, in the same spot
avoiding your shadow
Till the sun is lid
forcefully, attracted to fight it
Fight and you shall win
And sometimes defeated

Eventually a chapter ends
continuing to avoid your shadow
Till you change your spot

The Night of counting the years

31-5-2010

What you don’t see in this world
Is symmetrical faces

From a day spent with the sea salt
Torn lips meet to moisturize

You finish your drink
To be 86’d*

*86’d could mean you have fallen from 86 steps in some bars or could indicate the change of proof in Alcohol from 100% to 86% proof upon the drinker getting intoxicated.

Prelude

17-5-2010

The flamboyant red color
That attracts a child,

Red bands decorating your shoulder
Celebrating your graduation,

The red suits that adorns your body
You walk naturally
To be hanged by the neck

A return trip by a bus

12-5-2010

The distilled whiskey
Bleeding by the drop from the bottle,

That thin boy,
Greeting you with a handkerchief
After you depart the bathroom,

What you expect from the other
Is what doesn’t happen,

In some of us,
There is a part of something

Half god
Half men

And all love.

A Forest on the river bank

10-5-2010

Cover our eyes
So the angels won’t witness our sins

Let’s pray for the Greek gods
So our prayers will feed their mortality

For those who look shamelessly to the ground
Instead of apologizing

The rose remains dead
In the blue vase
With a sound of accordion in the background

The Message

2.4.2010

crossing her standing legs
on the beach
In a mid overcast day
stung by the cold water
That felt hot
Knowing that she wouldn’t depart her place
Unless carried on her back

On a roof top, downtown, Winter

23-3-2010
1:30 AM


In a family gathering;
Everyone chitchatting

All what he desires;
Is his friends wife

They all were infected;
By some kind of deafness

Not listening to;
Except what they desire

There are still some beautiful beings;
Who clap for the piano player;
After every piece
