The End

 

Message in bottle.

How many #farts brought our end?

Blowing in the wind.

(In my college, fart was slang for lie. That and fcuk made up our entire vocab.)

My dear Valentine

 

My dear Valentine,

With you, love was not #complex.

Without, simply dead.

This is Kaliyug.

People think #nexus of life

Is an idiot.

poly ticks

 

Cliché in romance:

Sharing #bathtub and shower.

Dirty poly ticks.

There are shades of grey

In democracy. Darkness

When idiots #galumph.

Once upon a time,

A #slithy creature took charge.

Fall and fall of Earth.

moniker

 

Here, we try to get the right moniker.


The goons go for the explicit: Machete Machaan, Acid Annie, Butcher Boobalan...


Got mine via my gfs: #Sweet Nothing. 


They were Lollipop Lila, Crème Brindha, Payasam Payal. In jail for having lovers' private parts with dessert.

It's beauty that hurts

 

It hurts to see beauty

with eyes that run dry.

A collage envelope:

a fettered body below azure calm,

tormented by sunset,

you by my side,

strange #tranquility in between.

Darkness will rescue-

from feigning, from laughter,

from madness, from life.

It's beauty that hurts.

The you of yesterday

 

Can you recognize

The you of yesterday?


I had some answer

Which I forgot too fast.


It's scary, you know,

If you failed to love me.


Is fail the right word,

I failed, I know too well.


Now, when I have lost

Words for love and anger,


Stranger is partner,

The you of yesterday.

that dream

 

I don't have a place to call home

I don't have a woman to call love

I thought I had all that

For a day or two I had all that

There are days when I can remember

That dream in which I had all that.
