She-Clouds

Do our clouds carry us?
Will they?
Was it the dark from which her face emerged
That made her so beautiful?
I leaned across the coffee cup again
A second time.
Do they?
She broke the window panes
With her brand new red shoes.

The black water down my belly
Began mumbling
A first time

Her face was held where water met darkness
Carrying the clouds
That made her so beautiful!

My Missing Friend

Do clouds carry the relations in this world?
Carry them in hand or in shoulder...

In hand
The image of my friend
The only one missing
Standing in front of a blackboard
Giving a gallant pose as usual
The blackboard asks---
"What are the factors that influence the velocity of sound?"
A question with so many potential answers

In shoulder
On the board
The answer too!
Only one answer given!
"Warmth"

Clouds on his face
Letters within rain-clouds
And your melodies with missing relations...

[For my school friend Gourab Chakroborty. This is for you, my friend...
He has been missing for 3 years now. Hope he reads this one day]

'Outness'

When she came into the room
There were shivers
When she came
She came with the room

Now, time to go
And there are shivers
Yet again
She has pushed the room
Inside
Out I go
Leaving the room outside

Trace
Poison
Bodies without love
Traceless
Poison

Body Solves it All...

Body solves it all!
At the helm
Is that all?
All...you think?
Body solves it all!

Air, bony due to sight
Growing rapid
Body solving
It all!
It all...you think?
Body with respect?
Respect it all?
You think?
Quick, too quick
For all that!

Body solves it all!
You think?
