USE ME WELL


USE ME WELL

Women...weapon-less women
Rushing at me on horses
Waving hands dripping blood.

The river tumbling in the distance
In a village mud-hut
I like this view
But not the furnishings.

Feelings inviting self-indulgence
That’s how I compose my love
A peculiar design for love.

I am pregnant with my love
I will die giving birth to it
How so, like a woman.

Part of my love dwells underneath
That part reacts
She is that part within me.

She knows me so well
Like a woman knows her man
I despair of her
Ever understanding me.

She so loves me...
Without knowing, thinking
What is it to be her?
She has no wherewithal of

She is like shouted words
I spoke them
No one heard them
Perhaps someone would hear them
Silence is loved by silence!

She uses love as a persuader
Even when she spites me
And use me well...
For, I cherish her

Boldness is distraction
Walking in the open
Is not love’s tradition
It is not a word for men.

orientations

ORIENTATIONS

We are these cells, this soul, this being.
We are the choices of our own awakening.
We are light that pours through the generations.
Innocent little children dancing to the rain song,
For a season of green to atone for our wrongs.
We are a hunter caught in his own snares.
We are a tidal wave in a sea of broken dreams.
We are flickering whimsy, a breath’s laughter.
The sacrificial dove, the hooting owl, the forlorn falcon
O, those surreptitious angels in their sweet anger!
Muttering of dreams lost, deep in our own silences.
We are haunts cries in the aftermaths of battle.
We are fine theatre made out of lost relics.
We are a spider’s webs, a tender weave of time.
Over here the wind blows, over there a story told!
We are dry leaves in this intricate whispering.
Augmenting to a morning of silent conversations.
We are this pen conversing to these sentences.
Lighting the threshold to that wordless portent
If we turn, what do we see, a river or a shiver?
Or had we bitten more dreams than we could chew,

And we are now waiting for someone who never comes?
