It feels like yesterday When we used to sit together in the park, But now it's all dark. It felt so good when you kissed me, But now it just feels like a mystery. Our hands were clenched perfectly together, But now I'll have to wait for that forever. Without you my birthday was incomplete, But now I  Read More...

Belly Dance

Title : Belly Dance  In the sweltering heat,this maid stands on my gate. She is clad in a soiled cotton dhoti, All the way from home for mere roti. Gone are the days she enticed me  by her parley, Now she has a ghastly look in the eyes. Uncertainty in them is darker than her dark circles.  Read More...

Admist the dark and dreary clouds of confusion and panic; Where is the silver lining?  There is distress and frantic. When the anxiety and fear reigns the blues; Where is the tranquil ?  That calms and soothes.  Sitting in the garden within the lockdown one day; Answered an inward jou  Read More...

The Lockdown Edition

Do you wake up early to the sound of birds chirping? Do you start fresh every morning? Or just can't fall asleep, coz  Read More...

By Johny in Poetry | Reads: 469 | Likes: 0
It has always been sexual, never without vulgarity, Always been with lust, never artistic, Always with eyes that judged, that held contempt, That we beheld the body, The naked body, Of a woman. Centuries of caging her in a cocoon of expectations, Ever since Eve took the first bite, What to wear, wh  Read More...
