Within opposites

Within opposites

Summertime
dawned on me to rest
sizzling heat
earthen wine
a closed circuit to repeat
explosion of chest

I breathed low
laden particles
Like first snow
within lung
bringing cool of icicles
to my frame they’ve clung

The ice froze
the daylight’s dazzle
splinters cried
as they died
ice and light relentless foes
a misty frazzle

Hand absorbs
the sparkling shimmer
Flowing orbs
show so slight
the fluctuating sunlight
its pulses glimmer

As ray sits
I see the shadows
their grey shows
inner light
It reveals a different sight
within opposites

See through me
windows within frame
I foresee
what they show
the tender limbs that they maim
a stark death to flow

To forget
what transpired within
body kept
paper thin
The borders that became blurred
from reasons unheard

Get me maps
of ancient lines drawn
under wraps
over trails
extent of which my mind fails
to see those withdrawn

I will walk
in valleys strewn red
where roses
their blood shed
in dilemma this poses
for the biased talk

I tower
vengeful and irate
through power
over fields
Passion in my body yields
old codes to translate

There is fire
diluting in veins
it brings stains
into heart
burnt cinders that charred higher
vessels it could smart

Hark listen
music to enthrall
Naked call
of the wild
it takes me to inner child
her fingers glisten

Silver falls
from her leaking hands
Leaves rustle
as she calls
she beckons to foreign lands
to stretching castle

Blinded sight
gathers memories
She points straight
heart at ease
I weather the wilting wait
She crouches in me

Putting on
another layer
I pull tight
shuttered sight
I am the dragon slayer
though we breathe as one

The veils smart
Flames I can't forego
It is me
I am he
The killer of it’s ego
Ruler of its heart

Fireflies light
lulling you to stay
in the night
took away
my breath that seeped over sand
creeping into hand

Flowing through
a composite make
Feel the ache
pulsing through
you are only one who knew
the growing heartbreak

Twenty times
sounding church bell chimes
you give love
from above
wounded soldiers giving forth
seasons’ deadly crimes

Surrender
the fighters are fierce
dark glimmer
of their oath
hundred of them my chest pierce
deathly reminder

I count twice
the riddled heirlooms
They are mine
dark outshine
bringers of light to the wombs
We shift humans thrice

Lightning hurled
onto my ceilings
it unfurled
body curled
I expand into the light
spun power and might

Rumbling on
the thunder follows
jaws of sound
dreary hound
it speaks of deadly gallows
where dark shadow flows

Venom hides
deep within my blood
Red to flood
their insides
corpses strewn where my frame rides
my will in the flood

A cross hides
under mighty waves
Yesterday’s
helpless slaves
they chatter as the hand lays
their bodies in skies

I raise them
above eventides
their insides
bleak anthem
their guts raised a message fall
inside the ocean

The salts waste
my willful hunger
The mind raised
breath to taste
millions of silver-white drops
tomorrow’s red crops

A flashback
your image hurtles
Screeching stops
blood curdles
the memory of you calms
like olden-time psalms

You and I
a sacred union
The shared thoughts
they vibrate
hastened more to love than hate
they create new world

We hold hands

in memoriam

A time spent

within heart

An era that love demands

never to depart



The ship sails

its masts setting course

Teetering

heart on brim

I hold onto direction

that my compass fails



The wind blows

on our memories

I skim slow

unleashed flow

I search for the trace of love

gifted from above



Fluttering

my eyes miss deltas

that describe

what it was

a pillar of salt forming

where trust lacked resolve



Tomorrow

knocks hard at my door

Like a show

of puppets

it pulses and carries strings

faint rememberings



Forgotten

the days are silent

Trails we made

lost their shade

The sea washed over our names

for nights to repent

I run down
steep memory lane
It eases
fleeting pain
I gather insight within
statement paper thin

Life’s path
etched in white drawings
shining through
clouds’ clearings
my inner sight piercing blue
shadows on snow white

I will walk
concentric circles
setting truth
where lies talk
overcoming the hurdles
rubbing off the chalk

In prayers
I hear the Goddess
She speaks strong
twin voices
They resonate within soul
path where I belong

My birthright
piles through centuries
gifted skin
now akin
to scales of dragon’s body
harbours golden dawn

Pencil drawn
sketches shades of me
foregone hues
reds and blues
redesigning the future
for heart to nurture

Summon me

yesterday’s servants

now returned

war merchants

Glassy pupil fakes bleak tears

hypocrite’s arrears



Call with me

on yesterday’s boon

for brethren

gone too soon

The promise based on cross red

heathen blood to shed



Write with me

the will and the want

slanted curves

wrecking nerves

stories for our peers to haunt

lone on quaking knee



Bear with me

burden of anvil

beaten brow

horror show

repeating in opposites

cruelty of misfits



Stand with me

in time’s chronicles

while we sum

fate to come

fledglings harnessing the facts

bygone artefacts



Noah’s ark

built into the bark

treasures rise

for the wise

with the Goddess we demand

Trees of Holy Land
