An Esteemed Person
As a yak in Himalayas happens to lose
its thick fur-like hair during winter season,
It can't survive and die due to heavy snowfall;
Similarly An Esteemed Person,
if he happens to lose his modesty,
shall die if the lost modesty is regained!
(ThirukkuRaL 969)
Is there Any Esteemed Person nowadays?
Many persons who attended CBI enquiry
are in Tihar Jail and are still alive!

A Flower To Auroville Mother-59
Lesser periwinkle(Vinca minor)
Large Leaf Periwinkle(Vinca major)
So a chosen one you are
As by divine order angels
Over the ranges at times
Stepping along to answer
So you are as Periwinkle
Major, minor leaves varying
Leathery or plain spreading
Blue, violet, rare-white winkle
So over the Himalayas you are
A treatment magical by heaven
Penta-petaled southward even
May be unto me by divine order

The Herbal Oil Vendor
My poor Mom was in the General Hospital
For an immediate surgery
And we take her meals everyday
Brother and I are alternatively.
The Herbal oil Vendor in his Sixties
Who stands at the entrance gate
And sell his precious stuff.
He boasts; ' These bottles are worth than money
Straight away from Himalayas
And the one and only remedy for loss of hair.'
He's totally a Bald headed
And nobody query why don't he applies this panacea?

Television.
Television:
Super Vision,
With or without
Supervision.
Far better than
Superstition
Or even
Intuition.
More than a thousand channels:
Discovery,
History,
Biography, Sci Fi, Sky, Virgin....
See South America,
The Himalayas,
China, Australia
And Timbuctoo.
Just about anything,

Counting
When you were rolling in dust,
a puritan said, truth was me.
It was getting dark in Himalayas.
Black words, black themes.
You have started a journey in daylight
in a hot desert of fear.
Tormented, because of the heat
of arguments. Mimicry makes you sick.
Mocking birds fly straight for lofty peaks.
Self-denial was hurting sometimes
against copious rewards and generous handouts,
like pinned on a totem.
The happening must start
with hidden promises of price.

India, how to increase the Olympics medal tally
God of Games
who rides on chariots,
carriages and horses
that roar like thunder and
flash like heaven's lightnings
God of Sports
physiques lithe, muscular
and tough that can bounce over
the Himalayas and traverse Mount Everest
with the strength of Hanuman
it is time hindus adopt
a God of Sports, of Games
like the ancient greeks, romans
who will be be inspired to be
champion chariot riders,
premium swimmers braving the
treacherous Ganges and
sportsmen thumping up Everest

Don’t ask the God
Don’t ask the God for anything!
He cannot make you rich without
Making others poor to suit.
He didn’t form the Himalayas
Without digging the Pacific.
You must suffer for you inflict;
You are a victim of chances;
You too will get lost like the rest.
Your asking is others’ losing.
Yours is a part and the others’
Is the rest to make you exist.
You can bear the cross as feathers
And shy the crown as thorns the least.
Don’t ask the God for anything!

Blazing On the Dunes of Cape Cod
Monkeys don't do hula hoops.
Unless they've been smoking weed,
Grown on the hills of the Himalayas.
Nor do parakeets have humps like camels.
But then again I did hear one sing,
'We Are The World'
Wearing 'bling' as bright as a fire...
Blazing on the dunes of Cape Cod.
And I thought about all of this,
As I prepared for my dive
From Golden Gate Bridge!
Maybe I should accept that I'm nuts.
Since I would never contemplate suicide...
Dressed like the others,
In rented tuxedos.

Siva
Foothills of the Himalayas.
How vast and towering, Mount Meru!
From that icy, lifeless peak
behold the plains
and pains
of men!
Frozen, jagged jewels
merely compound his charms
and devotees still jostle
to be martyred in his arms.
One defines oneself by others,
cannot be big or small alone
and, but for the one that we outgrew,
how would we know that we have grown?
If my tadpole
turns into a frog,
how should I complain?
And if my soul

Kissing Caldrons
Putting the fire in mouth
as a last rite
he readied himself for the onslaught
of questions, who will attack like
leeches, the blood sucking parasites.
It was a bizarre coalition of love
between kissing cousins.
The knifing will continue with
weapons of death. The suckers will neither
kill you, nor keep you alive.
At what price to get the ice from the Mt.Himalayas.
An abode of god was nursing the blood stained
footprints of men, the escalating war
and dripping mane of black sun.
Huge clouds begin a chorus of dark light.
