In Askance

A Poem by Raja
"

...but I have cleared all doubts!

"

 Over the rocking summer or sizzling winter or floral spring,

Over the darkest nights or simmering heats or falling mists,
Over the translation or transcription or taunting beauties –
 
I lie and criss-cross names that’re close to hearts
 
Some say water-marks are forever –
           With or without syllables
           With or without commas
           With or without any correlation conjunctions
 
Over you like dews tore apart from heaven
 
Now, I ask you –
                         You have it or not!

There's something almost mystical to this .. the form is unusual but makes it unique .. your use of words needs thinking about .. i think i understand .. will come back ..

You take us on a journey through time and seasons, moving your words over our minds in such vibrant mists. This is beautiful and poignant... deeply touching.
