Satish Verma Poems

Barefoot you come to
collect the roses, to divide the pain.
An altered ego had brought pink wounds.
...

Pains apart, life is same
between man and beast. I renounce
my friendship with death.
...

I need you very badly.
I will carry. Agni into the sea, so that
blackbirds collect the moonlight.
...

You are my beautiful poem,
O moon. The absent conclave will
ask the knife to navigate in homeless pains.
...

The right or wrong thing,
a praying mantis decides, eating
away the head of mate in conjugation.
...

You are speechless like
tasmanian blackwood. Back of my
mind, I am a little nervous.
...

The body implicates the
philosophy for lullaby. Something
sleeps between moons. A simile wakes.
...

You stole my shade
to bare it all, culling the lethal
truth, when someone goes blank.
...

Words between the words
melt to make them lovers. It was
elementary. Hugging the deep fire.
...

There is no ending
of time. Heart in heart and pain
in pain. Go deep to invite the moon.
