The Heart Attack Poem by Jagannath rao Adukuri

There, dark portentous air filters
Through hair-like leaves of the tree.
Fear trembles with deathlike finality
Clenched fists cry vengeance
On blood-draining arteries
Ghosts of people swirl around me
Claustrophobic walls are closing in
I have known it coming like that time
I have told you so many times
You did not believe me and now
You look at me incredulously as if
I have not warned you in advance
These specters in long white gowns
Decide my future in hushed whispers
Their smoky whiteness is enveloping me
Their shadowy medical epithets falling
Like lightweight feathers of a bird in flight-
Just like it was at that time when
I was muscling my helpless way through
Your incredible all-around mother-softness
Now that I am growing into nonexistence
Tell me what I should do with these
Useless brilliant multi-colored shadows
I have been chasing all these days.
