Bala Baskar Natarajan Poems

this might be blasphemy
but you can't deny it
the man whom they nailed on Calvary
did have connections.
...

The lone bird streaked across the sky,
The last desperate fling of a tamed sun
Sinking slowly from the scene of struggle,
Behind the mountains and beyond the horizon.
...

Dying embers
of a super nova
that cracked up
a billion years ago
...

The future is not bleak
somewhere there
an unlucky girl
with music and grace
...

somewhere far away from here
a mad guy committing suicide
slowly and in comfort (he told me so)
with filtered cigarettes
...

Epistemelogs
are serious people
who do not smile
while discussing
...

he said
man can be destroyed
but not defeated
...

The way you started off-
(i thought
you had a sword upstairs)
- i wanted to go with you.
