In This First Dream Poem by Kanishka SricharanPratap

How could you know
The secret of coitus?
How did you string
The heaven with the earth?
In this first dream...

Where did you draw
The nail-scar?
Tell me
How did you kiss?

In which posture
You spread your body?
In this first dream...

Acted in Samapada...
Acted in Byomapada...
Was there any other posture?

From earth to heaven
From heaven to universe
Such a fire you are,
Spread and spread...!
In this first dream...
