dukesekhon sekhon Poems

O cease! thy varied mumble, O Dream;

Though sweet is the droan as bumblebee's,
...

Aah, thou, a mystical hymn of soulful bliss,
Playing truant with mind’s imaginative harp.
Hark the music! so harmonious {but confoundedly amiss},
That lightens the spirit and gladdens the heart.
...

Onward I drive, Onward I withdraw,
I fight existence in the raw;
Till life itself should its aid withdraw,
Undaunted shall strive - and stake all!
...

What want may, we,

Heart's hoary outlaws have
...

You and I just sail along life’s tide -
High or low, we have little choosing;
If it bears you to the shores of your dreams,
You have made it. If it
...

Aah woe is me!
O thou cruel, clinging Inactivity!
Who habitually wraps itself around the prostrate
Form of its opiate victim, wringing out in small degrees
...

When I am short of ideas
Or at a loss for words,
I just rub my hands together
And create artificial warmth;
...

I live but to eat,
For I am of the bird and the bee -
If I have to create,
I’ll have to sweat it out -
...
