होठों पे हँसी
खोखली सब ख़ुशी
आँखें उदास

St. Pine
Tresses flowy, swaying beard,
In meditation
perched on a cemetery, saintly Pine
centenarian!

मुक्ताकाश
स्थूल रह गया नीचे
अस्तित्व छूट गया पीछे
और अब तो तू भी नहीं
सिर्फ़ मुक्ताकाश
अनंत शून्य. . चैतन्य.
न कोई वासना, न कामना,
न शिक़ायत, न प्रार्थना,
न आभार ही.
कौन करे ?
किससे ?
क्षण निरन्तर नहीं
कैसे रोको उसे ?
आया और गया
घटना घट गयी
बस.. बात ख़त्म हो गयी !

*This poem is
dedicated to Purba Chakraborty, whose ‘Paragliding…’ inspired me to write this
on one of my out-of-body experiences in deep meditation in remote Himalayas.
*With apologies to my Guru who advises us not to share these…sorry
Boss, the writer in me couldn’t resist the temptation of wording a part, and
overpowered the seeker in me…can’t hide from You, You are omniscient! We err to
be forgiven by Your benevolence.

Paris blasphemy
The ping of bullets
lulled the tinkle of Champagne
flutes
Took over the lilt of violin
the booming guns
The red wine oozed
out of burgundy lips
To mahogany ceiling
the caviar flung
chanel No.5 reeked
of blood smoke
Stunk of burnt flesh
Pour Homme
The half written poem
Dried in fingers
The song in throat
got strangled
Breath in breath
Whirring hearts
Abrupt silence..
Paris blasphemy!
* This poem is dedicated to peace loving people all
over the world, and is my tribute to innocent victims of the atrocities of
extremists.
