Blocking Vision Poem by malini kadir

He stood there blocking vision
Her entire life; his to observe
Slowly, catching interest
And I guess you know the rest!

Man is oft by woman's caprice caught
Woman too; stands to blame
For it was her silent acceptance and smile
That makes him go on......all the while......

So, infinitely intricate this bonding
The world steps out of vision
Caught up in his sensations
Man the master; man the victim

Ego his master, desire his mistress
Cuddles up with him
Day by day
Is it also his fancy whim?
