Aniruddha Pathak Poems

Nor those planets in high heavens,
Nor machinations of demons,
It is the desperation,
Depression and frustration
...

Impossible is it
To be present in the past,
And hard enough
To be present in the present;
...

Beware of piggy-mouth scuba mask,
It's no help from pollution attack.
It may attract a pig—
Lovelorn and chasing big,
...

Eavesdropper, never a man of dare,
Who, pretending to take some fresh air,
Would sneak into eve's house
And hide there like a mouse,
...

Kingdoms may change, comes a new king
As every season changes bring;
Land changes with dwellers therein,
Their habits tend to change no mean;
...

Fire worms know it right from birth—
Know sacrifice and its worth,
So do dewdrops on green leaf—
They seldom have all the day,
...

Joy and bliss,
A rare perfume,
Can't be spread
In a mirthless room,
...

Forced to spell, compelled when to arrive,
All he showed was honey from bee-hive—
To prove: smart can he speak—
Gullible minds to trick,
...

Here is how revealing suits can wreak
Upon a curvy swimmer a trick!
The suit, said referee,
Was so high I could see
...

Familial pure, and hot nor red,
Sanguine love blood related,
Co-operative in nature,
Supportive in its stature,
...
