Kesav Venkat Easwaran Poems

(Solo)
A boozer was old Uncle Stall
Not sober he- know all
...

Yesterday midnight
amidst my dream
she arrived
entered into me
...

I sat down to write a comment line
Over two cups of good red wine
Listening to the midnight rain-
In one poem 'Rain' I mean
...

Scorching away the dark
In the distant east
What comes out
Spreading delight?
...

Lies...

With in makeshift masks
On multicolored face false
...

I have often heard my aunt say that
Antiques have a value more than
What they could fetch on sale
I Have always felt those words sound antic,
...

Give up your futile attempt
You won't succeed
You try to change the truth
You would only bleed
...

Of dark deep forest amidst roars of carnivorous
can't you hear distinctly my newborn cry?
Pushed on, no request, to this wilderness
on compulsion sheer, you sent me, why?
...

Desires raw and ripe
mixed with
illusions sweet
attractive pieces
...

The sun stopped peeping secretly through the green leaves
The shadows lengthened and silently grew to size
The ghosts in them came to life, expressing their glee
The forest was courting the wild darkness it seized
...
