Bloody Friction




 Like a chained rabid dog
His seething hormones drag him on a walk
In the wilds of scream
As this raven lost in a randy cock
Gives a grasping chase
His prey tied in his cabling veins
                                                      
As he pegs her in the bed of thorns

Into shreds she was torn
Shattered like a broken glass
A husk of a corn ripped
Before the time of harvest
Her screams quieter than silence
Her pleas made to a wall
Buttons rolled like a game of dice

His bloody mooned eyes sparkled
Tears from her eyes he makes stream
This bloody friction
As a plane shaves a raw wood
Leaves a wound reminiscent
Of a bark torn off a tree
An unhealed scar

Every night fear she dreams
Her esteem she sees on a sail
Lost in the bitter rage of the sea
Her eyes always filled to the brim
Silence she speaks to
In the community of scolding shadows
Where such initiations are concealed

Nostalgia




This tour I took
To that place with its map
Embossed on the walls of my heart
Through strings of lingering roads
Where memories live
And years have their warehouses
Two decades forward to the past
But alas! The past wasn’t home
It had moved on too
With a chest of memories
A man’s playground in the latter years
The streets had turned grey
And the boisterous dust all grave
The childish mirth all gone
I can only see the screams now
In the ears of my mind
While the corners all deserted
In the host of my childhood
Strange faces paid no respect
To this homecoming
Mystery isn’t always regal
Only few familiar faces now
The faces of the faint colored walls
That winked at me
And the waving arms of the beloved lime tree
Betrothed to time
Now the breeze of emotions
Caresses to a soothing
But still I ran after the past
Caught him with a faint grip
But looked two-faced now

Death is an Angel



So we hid under the tree of immortality
And dared to eat its fruit
We already know like the gods
And now we exist like the gods
And the creator was wrathful
But we didn’t mind a challenge
So he left us with travails and pains

Banished we were from purpose
And the home beyond the clouds shut
Permanently against us
We sowed evil
Seeds from our hearts
And reaped pestilence
The clouds caked and the earth frowned at us

We played the string of years
And age ran leaving us behind
Wars meant nothing but hollow conquests
The headless crashed about
Even the heartless made centuries a home
Men danced to the painful tunes of diseases
And pain was our death

The earth groaned and drowned into vacuum
Subdued by our population
Traffic lights controlled the human gridlock
Men breathe into men’s faces
And in famine we multiplied
Walking skeletons and ancient hunters
Roaming the prison of life

Men made a feast of torture and torment
Tyrants never died and hearts were not needed
Hanging from nooses man sang sorrow
Wickedness was our currency
And tears we squeezed into bowls
From the eyes of the weak
And drank till we got drunk

It was all madness and grief in mirth
Our souls burnt in empty crypts
And men groaned into the ears of the creator
Then the heavens opened and the spirit of death
Descended upon the earth like a vulture
And there was an eruption of joy
And yet again a great noise of wailing for death was too hungry.
