Fortunate
Have you ever considered?
How fortunate you are
To gaze at the sky
And see a star,
And say to yourself
I wonder how many there are?
To walk through a garden
And smell the rose.
Skip through dewy grass
In your bare feet and toes
Before the sun arose?
Take long walks on
A crisp fall day.
Build a snowman
On a cold wintry night
Giving him eyes of [...]

To my love while where’re apart
I wake up nightly in the dark
I reach to find you… but you’re not there
Your beautiful smell has left the air
Now my room is dark and lonely
I start to cry for my one and only
I close my eyes to see your face
Then back to sleep with no embrace
My dreams are [...]

Like a dancer left in the HALL alone
By his Danceing Friends forgotten-
So i walked alone on the streets today,
In the lonely town of Rockham.
I saw the DRUG STORE, and the BANK;
I even found the door
Where DOCTOR SEEMAN had his office-
When I was young and poor!
Like a town seen through a broken pane-
Where had the buildings [...]

The Lufthansa flight from Newyork landed in Chennai at 2:15 AM, thirty minutes later than the scheduled arrival time. Mohanasundaram was waiting at the arrival terminal with increasing anticipation. He scanned the hundred faces coming out of the airport for his son. After about forty-five minutes, Arun kumar walked out, waving his hands [...]

Present Day
It was the first Monday in weeks when I was not in office before ten. As I saw the frosted sundial of my old citizen ticking eleven thirty, I cursed myself for the umpteenth time for choosing that insurance company. I found out that the other companies did not require so many tests after [...]

Yes, there really was an Apollo
When certain stars reached alignment
A beautiful mask was painted
And thus we evolved in his image
Physically perfected, Apollo provided man
With someone to blame, in exchange for worship
With someone to blame for the confusion of vanity
In making women inspiration and not creators
For formulating this tidy interweave
That became humanity
His age inknown, his beauty [...]

It doesn’t take much
Your voice floats up from the street
Echoing in the emptiness
The moon looks down
It could be Athens, you hiding in the
Martble garden outside the women’s quarters
One quick whisper sent up to me
Eching in the empty coldness
The moon looking down
Like the moon to earth, I, so drawn to you,
Whispering back with kisses spilling with [...]

The true story of Apollo remains untold
The perfection, the encodement
The engineering of beauty in many times and places.
When the ship left I knew nothing of
War, blood and man; a symptom of celestial affinity
Fallen with angels, but destined, in whatever
Unguidede form, to live separated from them.
Cypress to me then may well have been
Some far-off star. When [...]

You are sleeping on a bed spread out
With innumerable memories, of our togetherness;

I fall asleep, if but only for
A split-second:
End of cigarette in my right hand.
It’s early, I mean early morning,
Her ghost; detached from her vehicle and ready
She, wanting to take over me
Through the semi-transparent white;
That of an angelic-spread.
Swinging my empty left hand; forward I haul
Myself.
I jolt up and out of it,
Back to the now,
Without her
Possessing me.
