Tears Beyond A Poem's Ken


All that I see
I am able to bind in verse

On a tapering rail road
A solitary shoe

From the clouds
The slow descent of sparrows

The eyes of an infant
Just awoken

Upon the burnished earth of youth
The shadows of rebellion

As white doves prepare to gather
The indo-pak border
Turning into a murder of ravens

Dreams that dissolve
At the touch of dawn

Upon the shores of the night
The cockle shells of truth

I don’t know why

But that moment of separation
Sits weeping by the steps
At the doors to the temple
Of my poesy
