The horror of you in
lesser light, when you took
via dolorosa, to
meet yourself.
Moon was not waiting
for you in unkind sky. A
pinhole of dark would not send
some hope.
Something unsavory was a
way of unhappening,
tying the knot with the destiny
of doing nothing.
Losing my kernels in
desert of words. I took
the wrong path of liberation―
where no god lives.

I would like to translate this poem
Hitchhiking in America. Across the heartland. The breadbasket. Pick-ups with dualies and plaid-shirted farmers wearing hats. The bed full of seed that rattles and adds a percussive sheen to the country tune song softly on the radio. The casual reference to killing weeds.
