Veeraiyah Subbulakshmi Poems

When look into the sky, there is some light, then dark,
When look into the heart there is lot of truth clogged,
When look into the eye, there is a cloudy lens, fogged,
Let the light be shown everywhere to see the invisible,

He was just seventeen and four months,
The son of the humble peasant,
Recruited to be the cook in the barracks, but,
Given two grenades to destroy two machine guns,

even if we have no opportunity,
even if we are constantly deleted,
to go and rest in the recycle bin.....

The knots are gathered,
When the future is knitted,
The knots have to be removed,

The serpent was in front of me,
But a real king Cobra, so slim,
Sparkling with bluish tint,
Scales glittered with no attempts,

All day you toil,
Get yourself soiled,
With responsibilities,
Worries and love,
...

He wouldn't have given the human the tests,
Tests of various kinds, a few without food,
To check how they stay calm hiding their weep,

I was born from the womb of a lioness,
In the shed of buffalo, dipped in tropical water,
A distant dream to my enterprising parents,
They wanted a different thing, not as mine,
...

Having the dark secrets,
Can’t reveal to anyone,
When the true colors are exposed,
Who will respect this culprit?
...

Look at them: him and her,
They are tranquilized neither,
nor aware of the surroundings,
They are not glued with binders,
...
