The Boiling Cauldron Poem by Atashi Ghosh

The Boiling Cauldron



The uncanny plunges deep into the broth,
From where fumes the veiled character,
Smiles in guile the wretched self,
And hankers after the terrified innocence.
Spices add a variety of insolence,
Comes bubbling the unexplored unconscious,
Treachery rakes the sparks of impudence,
Pours the somnolent favour of appearance.
The unending quest for the real
Submerges into the engulfing unreal.
