Tryst
Cuffed and collar’d – not entirely wedded n’ bound
Retaining strength with freedom recently found
In gallant splendour of posies he dutifully bade
She became his princess, and nonchalant maid
She washed away his tears with sweat of sin
An’ hell coloured hair that whipp’d his skin
Oh scornful mistress! How can you chide and glow?
Because, she smiled, that’s the way troubadour g...

"Of Lilith and Anthony" poetry collection available as an ebook on Amazon
My debut poetry collection "Of Lilith and Anthony" is a poetic narrative of a love affair, bringing to the reader the ultimate question of whether it is a modern day cautionary tale or romantic tragedy. The poetry speaks of anticipation, erotic and obsessive love within the confines and complexities of an extra-marital affair, that is bound by social norms and family expectations. These evocative ...

Everything is full of you...
It’s not a lie, everything is full of you, I can assure it;
the night we met,
the old lantern that shone on us
and perhaps your promises inspired these words
converted into grief
My heart, yearning for you,
looks for sweet words
to write in your soul
This love without words became my preferred tempo,
in the most perfect harmony,
in the most beautiful poetry

I only asked...
I only asked for a few things...
the unique instant of feeling inside you,
to seal my lips and without speaking, say “I love you”
Your life, in every corner of my hands,
the epitome of my dreams,
in the suns, in my thoughts,
drenched in glory
And grew for those whom thought it real!
Everything seemed like I dreamt you...
I don’t know, don’t know what I fe...

The Hierophant's Castle
The Hierophant guards. He guards and feeds from pack of thieves
that are drawn forlorn to his treasures. To rule, to hold, to perfect –
he placates and facilitates pretty carousel that spins flinging their
demons against pillars of law and liberty. A conservative duality of
white knight and coyote - unmoving face of majestic monument that never
falls. He covets the treasure, thieves and carou...
