Satish Verma Poems

Time within the earth hour
was lengthening.
The other god was sleeping.
...

He was asking for, at least,
a passive euthanasia.

Rage or hostility
...

I wished
a solitary temptation,
to write off karma
and become responsible for the spattered blood.
...

Death in meadow
on leaves, under the sky.
History was walking over the bodies
of those who were in service
...

Drowning her children
back in her womb,
a big tear rolls down the cheek of earth.
She was sitting on broken bones
...

The fall
was imminent
on the moment of complete truth.
I was talking of annihilation
...

A poem writes my name.
I am trembling
on paper like salt.
...

There was existence,
without space.
I was afraid of my unborn child.
...

They swim like tadpoles.
Thoughts!
I was waiting at the far end of pond.
...

Somebody had put the feet
against the flame,
the street had become a wall.
...
