ReflectionsA Poem by Satish VermaYou were not listening, when I said―
You were not listening,
when I said― " After offering my head, I will go into deep sleep " Coyotes were gathering. The prairie was on fire. Under the feet, the smoke was bursting. You had started eating your toes. Carrying the burden of unsavory― reputation, the books were not telling that time has stopped and no lyrics were left in religion. Sometimes in night, I will hear the soft notes of a flute, when, moon was rising and muse will come and I would ask " What was the need of inventing the hell? " © 2019 Satish Verma |
