[nukkad] composite verse

["Homi Kaikobad" <>]

----------------------------------------------------------------------------
 Re-use your plastic bags.

REAL?

when you sleep your world dissolves
and you and your naked lover are galaxies apart

when you wake, the world runs to be there
where you can see and hate and expend your heart

patriot. renegade. godly. profligate. terrorist. rapist
all made to order by your withinward upstart

the truest fool is the one who makes and forgets
and spends precious days in so many exhausting ways.
______

WHAT TO WRITE?

there are days on nukkad that seem gray tired
drone groan sputter stutter bitch snitch bray

maybe the many are clones of the few, four
one who hates, second who waits, third who tries to please
fourth who drones or moans or groans

how may one write of love and kisses and wine and verse
where drones dribble and squibble and squeal and curse?

wake work weave will wont weary whoresome goresome
let be all these and more if it is not boresome.
_____

VERSE

to many it sounds like a curse
a carp or cavil from the devil

if you can write it
there will be many to bite it
the rest will certainly spite it

or worse.
______

GODLY

godly go the worshipful ones
to the many forms distinctly podly

untired of kali mali mula sthula aham braham
they trek to shirdi baba shaba sai mai a-dhai

mixing up rama and kama and sai and bhai
mata and rata and puja with duja with bhuja

dry souls lost in eager bargains with the gods
samadhi and pramadhi and adhi and adi pods

jaye jagdish haree pal me sankat dur karee
mata ganapati sanagati kirya priya par pari

harami halai sabh puja nimaj samaji riwaj
yeh sabh na-pura, abh jaye adhura shirdi ke kaj

wahan haddi rakhiya sakhiya arti phool
yahan khudi khuddari hajir hajour amar-sthool

Arya.
