Nikhil Parekh Poems

Crisp cotton shirt had developed stains of spilled coffee,
parallel velvet tie was coated with grease,
white spun vests resembled coal tar dustcloth,
flower embossed handkerchief smelt like rotten fish,

White specks of dust were visible floating in the air,
as acrimonious beams of sunshine filtered through the dark room.

golden splinters of sawdust flew in bountiful amounts,

pieces of stone molded to artistic pawns,
royal knights maneuvering handsomely on the board,
sturdy rooks marching straight with dexterous ease,
hunchbacked bishops gliding through diagonal streets,
...

Round bumps of red rash developed on my face,
As a handful of mosquitoes stung placid regions of my flesh in unison.

Small protrusions of skin were visible on my face,
