Raj Arumugam Poems

run home
run home
butterfly;
run run
...

the sky hangs over her
and the waves come near;
and the delicate beauty walks alone
pensive, self-absorbed
...

I’ll go to this restaurant
cos today I’m eating low-fat
and healthy;
I want to glow and eat safe
...

OK, it’s not something I ate
or my youthful wild days
catching up with me;
no – it’s not me taking turns to be
...

I am Yun Du-seo,
dearest fellow-beings;
I lived in Korea
and this is my self-portrait
...

the call came;
it was evening
it was sudden
but the expected words
...

persuaded into haiku

all right,
I’ll give it a go:
...

1

if you meet
a snake with fangs
...

hey, did you want to feed
a clown?
hey mister,
did you want to buy me lunch?
...
