Satish Verma Poems

Hiding the meaning
of life, you caused the
absurdity. Theater was not
ready for the audience.
...

Sharing my sweetbread
with you in densely days when
want spans religion.
...

There was something
between the lips.
You will not recite my name.
...

Predicted to fall.
Man battling against his
demonic spirits.
...

Let the dialogue begin
between the apostate and
the threatened god.
...

Life plays the tricks.
You become a meteor-
a streak of light, in the almond eyes
of a god.
...

The art of faking
will not come to me.

Your breadth
...

This one-sided
dumb feeling, rising―
nothing less.
...

To erase your subtle pangs.
You become ingrained in verses.

I will not speak―
...

Half your young age,
violence comes in choppers,
to avenge on the solemn moon―
for a long night.
...
