Piusha,

  • Blood bleeds from my mouth,  ( Blood is a symbol of pain and death )
  • No more contentment like her feather touch;  ( There is no relief from an external source, not even from the Police )
  • I have been drinking poetry! ( The dead victim was  a wanderer or a beggar like, nothing to drink, except his poetry )

NOTE: This poem is being inspired from the death of one of my friend who was a poet in Malayalam literature,not very famous, known as A. Ayyappan, who died in the street without food  last year at Trivandrum, the capital city of Kerala in India. The Kerala Police identified his dead-body only after two days while they came to know the Poet by seeing a poem in his pocket. The body was kept in the freezer for another 4 days due to a Strike/Harthal,  prior to the burial. Writers had made an issue on his death against the Govt. for not giving any tribute/attention to the dead body of this Poet.

Love

When butterflies die,
How soon it is forgotten,

Sadness is just joy,
That has lost the will to see,

Time does not heal wounds,
And life just gives you new ones,
As a distraction.
