I am intrigued
By the sheer idea.
Releasing ancestors
From the psyche
And setting them
on the path of liberation.
I am already lodged
In the deep recesses
of the mind of my
children.

“I am waiting to walk,
But you need the money
At the end of the day, you know.”
The mind that spins
illusions
has an urge to create or destroy
but no resolve to take consequences.
It hides the fear
underneath
the illusion, the verbal gymnastics
and the scholarly search,
without moving.
He moved, he spent the money
and walked away.
(Suhas T, Sandeep A)

Here I was
going through
every synapse
in the brain
to prepare
a short presentation
on
the future of humankind;
there he was asking
if the food would be
from my native cuisine
and if
the audience
would have
a fair
sprinkling of fair sex
- his major incentives.
He had 'finished'
the future of mankind
in a jiffy.

I make a suggestion –
Let’s pull the walls down
And see if we can make a floor
Out of those.

I am stranded this side
not able to reach out
to him and to her;
you are already on
the other bank.
Did you acquire
the power of walking
on water?
Anything is possible
for you -
the milk of kindness
flows
through
your veins.
I check from
time to time
if my heart is
still in place.

Not here,
the mind says
searching for
a stable footing –
it’s all sand.
All my houses
were of sand.
It was fun for
the waves,
for the sand,
for others.
Not for me.
This big thing
About building –
Why not simply
Be sand?

It’s by accident
That I discovered
I am an artist.
I want my work
To be just so,
Not a line here
Not a line there.
I don’t have time
For others’ ideas
In my work. It’s my
Creation and let me
Have the freedom
To do it my way.
It’s a work of art
After all and not
The day’s work.
“All my life
I have swallowed
Your irritations
And carpings.”
Agreed, but aren’t
Artistes to be pampered?
Every detail has to be in place,
If it has to fetch appreciation.
The purpose of art is to
Imitate God in controlling
One’s creation. My life’s story.

When he started and kept up barking
at her
I was stabbed to my past -
heartless, drunken with hubris,
insensitive, dictatorial.
And she, a picture of composure
firmly centred, not paying
heed to the commands;
quite unlike mine.
Then he lectures on
the harm done
by higher education
and empowerment.
At least I supported
liberation by word
if not deed.
Here was future
calling
for liberation of the past.
Men too
shall rise
and follow
women on march.
