IMAGES
(Rema Prasanna Pisharody)


It wasn't me but shadows
experimented on my heartbeats..
In ancient memories
my thoughts were too gentle
and kind ..
That was before you invaded 

my origin, my earth
to teach me about the impure wisdom
of the wild..
It is true, i wasn't
familiar with the show case
gentleness of painted gadgets
and the barter system of kindness.

In seasons
and in not so remarkable
advantage points
in front of me faces moved
with no traces of gentleness
but with the final settlement chart
of impure wisdom..
It is not me experimented
with human heartbeats
but faceless shadows
and chemical hues..

I turned arrogant to block
shadows from invading
my earthen conscience
And i know
before you invaded my nation,
in ancient memories
i was gentle and kind
genuinely....

It wasn't me but  shadows

experimented on my heartbeats..

In ancient memories

my thoughts were too gentle

and kind ..

That was much before

you invaded my origin, my earth

to teach me about the impure wisdom

of the wild..

It is true that i wasn't

familiar with the show case

gentleness of painted gadgets..



In seasons

and in not so remarkable

advantage points

in front of me faces moved

with no traces of gentleness

but there i found  the final

paints of impure wisdom..

It is not me experimented

with human heartbeats

but faceless shadows

and i turned arrogant to block

them from invading

my earthen conscience....





 IMAGES

Images are precious
not for one season but for all...
it is not that one needs to add brightness
of bias to pride a superficial belief
Impressed; not my earthen lamps,
in forgone seasons i filled my heartbeats
for that more than
the tears i shed inside me
it is not because i ran short
of a second but believed
images are precious
and brightness of prejudice
is not earthen..
it is not my fault if a season
decided to fight near my border line
to disapprove my earthen beliefs...




IMAGES

Images i measure not in scales
or in seconds or in captions..
In pavilions i sit not now
to know the faces wrappers
of a downhill's signature ink mark
It is ancient a memory
that many monsoons ago
i withstood expletives
of a nation called silence...

In Shields i cover my conscience
tears i hold back
In nature's souvenirs i write
Flowers of monsoon i drape
From childhood dreams
to the replacement platforms,
face wrappers refused to accept
that there was a shadow in between
the banyan trees and my autumn

 
IMAGES
I followed a footstep and fainted against a faceless shadow Seasons changed like eras when i opened my eyes In my school library i searched for an epic and to my surprise i found that most epics are consortium of battles..
I followed a footstep and climbed up to the sky where stars wrote poetry like the sparkle of an earthen lamp... Away from the concrete pillars, away from the mysteries of premonitions i walked along the coasts of Indian Ocean in search of my own origin...
I followed an unknown footprint and collided on a mountain shadow and there near the plateau of emptiness i found my own unknown poetic footsteps..

 
HIS STORIES
History not very fascinating in royal enclosures as it covers past and truths alive in burial grounds... Buried coffins are brought up from centuries to enlighten me about the blindness of royal kingdoms..
I left my history book in library as it burdened my soul in silent blood sheds.. In my dreams shadows collided and arrows pierced my heartbeats I think i find more peace in poetry than in his stories...

ootprints....



 

IMAGES


I hear that 9 Baloch
from the neighboring borders
invaded my tri colour
through the barbed lines
of control...

Silence.............
will you listen for a while..
In mountain springs
you toppled our flag
and enemies sensed it
There is bloodshed
and i know you finish off
even a nation to implant
your ego on the top hill..

I hear that 9 Baloch from
the neighboring borders invaded
my tri colour and let me
shed a tear for the bravehearts
who lost their heartbeats
for you to do spring revolutions
to implant your ego
on the flag hoisting fort...

IMAGES
It is true i was waiting for monsoon when a mountain planted its shadows near my earthen boundaries Through the windows i was watching the star sparklers when a moon conspired behind my earthen lamp posts In my awakening dream i found the mystery of truth like the emblem of Kalinga in my tricolour...
Envious moon spread its darkness across the alphabets of life and there nothing left except a danger sign in red in provocative philosophy.. It was easy for me to listen my conscience when dreams stopped finding elements of sorrow from shadows and turned towards my origin my love, my poetic east coast horizon.....
