Aniruddha Pathak Poems

My dearest, my dream’s wildest rage,
Today in a glass shop-window,
I saw a wondrous something,
Beautiful as was stunning,
...

After a never-ending wait
A bus to the long lost out land
That once was a common homeland,
For, none can live in endless hate.
...

If you can treat life as if it were sea
And see your heart heaving like a seashore,
If you can see beyond what your eyes see,
Easy can make friends with the wayward waves,
...

Truth is no slave to discovery,
Needs innovation, nor creator,
Nor yet a path-breaking inventor,
Nor is truth a fiction, nor story.
...

Futile as is to fight a raging fire
With tiny tools that may only stoke it,
So methinks is fighting flaming desire
With notso better than a basic kit!
...

Far offs from earth man seems to see with ease,
Many a light-years far galaxy,
Stars and planets, their plains, crests and valleys,
He even knows how beastly black-hole be,
...

Parity, if there be such a bird,
Potty gaps won't stare at fairer world
That pays twice for this aid—
Use of blocks in bricks red,
...

The right word strikes with a rare force,
It has balance, it has repose,
Pointed a man of prose,
Yet, few can match the mighty horse-
...

You men, having come from the martial Mars,
And us women from the virgin Venus,
Have long been in unspoken silent wars,
Eons and there's little change in status.
...

Let voted houses remain hung,
Let horse-trading go on unsung,
And pictures perpetually hung,
But never once man shall be hung,
...
