The Cosmic Voice Poem by Pradip Saikia

The Cosmic Voice





A vacillating ancient violin
Is sucking
Your sweat - blood

A travelling bird
On the stony fair hand without fingers

A puddle of water of the sunset

A long call flying to invisibility
Through the colours
Thisquietude

Through my veins that turned blue
The sound of violin in trying to move up

The fingers are craning their necks to have a look

The cosmic light is
Pulsating
In the stony pasture

Great topic for a poem- a relationship with a violin- already so poetic but when transmuted to words creates a whole new sentiment: is sucking your sweat-blood: like a vampire, that violin on the soul!
