Mrs. Mary’s Fate

‘Yes we’re dead’, say sulking dead
‘Our bodies were left and no grave was made,
apparent fear is what everyone shows,
not one come close to lift our souls.’

Death did come to look at our face,
Went ahead without giving us grace,
Left are we with a persecuted self,
Looking in others for a comforting solace.


On one sunny Sunday, Mrs. Mary came
‘It seems so sad in this barren land’
All flowers here die, such a woe in air,
I’ll give this land my love of its share.’

Vehemence in us she drove right away
‘She’s a christian soul’, we cried every day
‘Sententious alchemy is in all her ways.’
Esurience for her presence could be felt in our says.

Like a halcyon she clamed our beast
Reverence for her in us was no least
Iron-clad were we to her presence
We relished her state of celibacy.

On one gloomy Sunday a man came
With dagger in hand and greed in eyes
Barged into cottage of Mrs Mary
Slaughtered her and stole her case

She joined our league in a desolated state
All that left in her was hate
She no longer had the love for land
She was now painted in hue of pestilance


Death came by to look at her
Bedlam in her could be felt at far
He left her with us to atone her hate
We know now we’re again in cold embrace.

SITA-RAMAM

  I don’t remember when it happened but somewhere and at some point in time, I stopped believing in love stories. It so happened that once the idea of true love went missing in my heart, I started to drift away and got lost in the market of cheap entertainment, it was instant gratifications that robbed me of the opportunities of waiting with dignity for real love. Words came easy to me once when describing any piece of art, literature, or music that moved me. I used to find my innocence when I found stories that were so beautifully unreal that they seemed divine. But lately, love stories appeared cornier and cornier and the stories became so predictable that even if I watch a love story (which I generally avoid), it fails to move me. Today, after watching the late-night show of Sita-Ramam, I feel I have found that old believer in me. I am glad he is still there, believing in the idea of magical love. This film was so complete in experience that it will remain with me. Sita-Ramam is...

Odalisque

She claims she hates, She shows no love, Yet she quenches thirst of hunger, They feed on her body, And shatters her pristine abode, She asks to world "Why you watch? If morality is declining in you, Then why not you tag along? Do come to steal my humanity, Do not hesitate of your own morality, If pity would’ve left in Pandora’s box, You could’ve reasoned your pusillanimous, But no right you’ve to pity my state. I’m happy to see this lusty human stage, A day will dawn When I’ll loose the vigor to stand, My soul will reside in heaven For loosing not to those stuck in sand of lust."   © 2016  VIREN
