A Craze Of Lines Poem by umashankar manthravadi

A Craze Of Lines

Rating: ★5.0


a craze of lines
invisible except
under pressure
a hand fugitive
smile but

that fat spider inside my skull
scampers to another corner
a bloodless hulk bobbing in its wake

everything is memory
nothing is now but
a world dry eyed, wept out
