Dreamy nightmare |
a poem by Rajiv Lather | ||
With assorted catcalls of antiquity prototypes & womb sprouts, (leading lights from the kingdom of impenetrable darkness) nymphs smeared with fertility motifs, dance to the chant of chastity hymns. Scenes culled from the suburban carnivals, pay homage to semi-nomadic tribes of bejeweled pillagers - merit certificates, purchased from whitewashed warehouses. Cosmopolitan horoscopes sprinkle stars on my pantheon of ropes, as a deluge of coconuts seeks refuge under submerged umbrellas, samadhi - messiah of minuscule. |
