Disappearance


 

It's funny to think of people who disappear, 

They disappear into nothingness

Without a warning

Without leaving a sign. 

I wonder what ponders in their mind

During the moments before the disappearance. 

They would think of coming back, 

Maybe not. 

Would they go with a proper plan

Or place or a specific medium

to travel? 

They would probably go for minimalism, 

For it would lessen the burden, 

the burden of all worldly pleasures

The burden of all relationships. 

Maybe they would survive, 

The disappearance period. 

Or they will disintegrate and 

Dissolve into seasons. 

Or they will be transported to another universe, 

Where all seasons come together

And day and night 

Come simultaneously. 

They would experience a new sense of freedom, 

Freedom from the monotonous life, 

From the caricatures of commoners, 

And the ties of restrictions, 

From the questionable ways, 

Inspiring thousands to disappear. 

I desire to examine their wonderful minds, 

Its design and architecture, 

the procedure they follow towards the process, 

It would be a marvelous piece of chaos

Of do's and don't's 

Of priorities and secrets. 

It's okay to disappear, 

from everything that tires you, 

From everywhere you no longer 

belong to, 

From every system, you no longer believe in, 

It's not giving up, 

It's giving others a chance to think, 

Of what would have gone through

these people's minds

Of how you failed them, 

Of what wrong you have done to them. 

Disappearance is good.

SHE

She was a girl of little importance.. She was not a damsel or a princess. But there was fire in her eyes. The fire of determination. Fire of dreams to be fullfilled. She never saw it ,but others did. But others never understood it ,but she did. She always dreamt of her future prince. Her shining eyes and glossy lips always waited for the arrival of her prince. One day. She met her prince,the charming one who came on white horse, she believed destiny made them meet, And she prayed let the same destiny unite them!! Days passed. Everyday she saw him. But she was afraid to come out of her shell. Another day. As she walked, he came. He walked towards her. she paused. As he reached closer her heart wrenched from its seat. And now there is no distance  between them. He smiled and reached for her lips. she closed her eyes. They kissed. It was deep. He looked at her. She tried to be normal.. But there was nothing normal around her .

THE DREAMCATCHER ( A Poem)

She tried. And made the hoops from willows to wove those magical webs. Wrapped the hoop with suede lacing. The string was woven onto the hoop. Hours passed. She wove some of her favourite decorations to it. Feathers and gemstones, hidden with meanings. Hours passed. But she wanted it  to be perfect. And finally, here it is. THE DREAMCATCHER. She hung it on  her bedroom wall and watched it carefully. Rubbed it with an artist's pride. The hoop smiled, ensuring the travel of sun through the mighty sky. She thought that when night comes  the hole in the center would only let Bawedjige( good dreams)pass. She would be able to sleep safe and sound today. The nightmares will never ever haunt her. For she has her Dreamcatcher. And Bawedjigewin( bad dreams) will be trapped in the web, to be dispelled at the first light of morning. She slept. The sun rays pierced into her eyes. She opened her eyes with the innocence of a newborn babe. The thought stroke her. She

The Grendels

Horror is lurking behind every moment of darkness, Seeming to be human, we cannot distinguish you from Grendel. We see no Beowulfs coming to rip off your arms that aid you well. When every closed door warns us, Every stare seems to map our bodies, Every vehicle appears to follow us, Every touch seems to warn us, You, cultured and well behaved, You are the light of the day, You are the Lord of the people, Who metamorphose into damned dangers  At the end of the day. Your venomous fangs go in search of  Prey, You wait in the darkness with twinkling eyes, Admiring the power of your hands, That can open up hearts, And show the uncultured your worth.  After every hunting, the sycophants who surround you, Kiss your hands and touch your feet. They wash your dirt and make your bed. They cure your sickness by gifting you scepters. Making you invisible, they uproot every Beowulfs to ensure your reign. Thus you flourish, never to die but to hunt and haunt. And behind your house, we see a pile of d
