kelvin karani Poems

On the pavements
Of international streets
Outside the big banks
Sits the beggar. Pecuniary problems
...

In my solitary walks yester night
I saw pretty twinkling stars
And thought of the one who has my heart
Stolen through her bedroom eyes
...

My lines lie there, impotent
Meaningless monologue to disinterested listeners
The wise fools piously defy the gospel of the poet
People prefer priests and politicians
...

TIME ALONE KNOWS
Time alone knows
When we beyond words
And these facelessness
...

I hear their cry
Dejected and lonely they are
Wanting company; our company
They are not there anymore
...

I have been chasing
A shadow
Something temporarily existing
Tiring the marrow
...

They said the one on the tree

Died for all to be free
...

I sit here wondering

Where the words
...

when today turns into past
and my poetic hairs turn black
and my pen refuses to last
and my creative bones crack;
...

Thoughts flood my mind
Questions turn things downside up
The rains of uncertainty
Join to form turbulent rivers
...
