"Long long ago,
Before the #constellations were born,
There was love."
"BS"
"Ain't joking,
The sequence of symmetry breaking,
Needed care."
"WTF"
"The Big Bang,
Definitely not a one night stand,
Work of art."
"Your 3-9-3 syllable structure has given me a headache."

It was late evening, still one hour away from home, where the green backwater lakes are barely separated from the blue frothy sea by a thin shimmer of brown sand, when the British guy started to sing.
I could hear his voice across those separating walls. #Bass voice, not really a good singer, using an old style, a mixture of Bob Dylan or Al Stewart or Cat Stevens. Along with the chug-chugging train, the rickety-rackety beat of wheels on tracks, the evening birdsong and the rush of cool air from outside, he sang in bursts, with pauses while cooking up those lines I suppose, but clear and slow.
Nothing great but I still tried to catch each word with the guilt and delight of a voyeur and an eavesdropper. Grasping, gasping, grappling...for life...with life...

Theory of love:
#Happenstance and catalyst
Are main ingredients.

why am i silent
about...
the list is too long
the excuses are quite good
no inconvenient #promises to dodge
is it to...
that too is obvious
everyone understands
i have got to
change
and learn
how to
use punctuation
when I am no longer
silent
but
then...

A black #onyx charm
Protects my soul, heart and mind.
Until seppuku.

#haiku #senryu ?
The shadow of guilt,
Perennial and unchanging.
Primal force #rooks life.
#vss365
#haiku #senryu ?
Why did I waste life
For a dream girl who said bye?
To lose, to find #self.
#vss365
#haiku #senryu ?
it is tough to be in the middle of the road
not knowing not wanting to cross to either side
it is a stranger world out there
status quo is better
waiting to be crushed
“End of #someone,
end too late.”
forever in the middle
should i cross

Joined an online matrimonial site.
My proposal: “Looking for a trustworthy companion.”
I got declined even before I swiped right.
Contacted the admin about the #glitch.
The reply: “You have been blocked – trustworthy people do not look for trustworthy companions.”

Nothing
Chills one to the #marrow
More than a horror
That gets worse
With each retell.
Whenever
I thought
I have seen the worst
There comes along
Another politician.

Fcuk you, #nirvana.
Said that when love and I met.
When death took her, too.

"Mignonette," he said.
Sauce, herb, dainty? She replied,
"Sesquipedalian."
#vss365 #mignonette
#haiku #senryu ?
Listen well. Then act.
"Keep a #copse behind the house."
The corpse didn't give shade.

Message in bottle.
How many #farts brought our end?
Blowing in the wind.
#vss365
#haiku #senryu ?
(In my college, fart was slang for lie. That and fcuk made up our entire vocab.)
My dear Valentine,
With you, love was not #complex.
Without, simply dead.
#vss365
#haiku #senryu ?
Once upon a time,
A #slithy creature took charge.
Fall and fall of Earth.
#vss365
#haiku #senryu ?
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.
