The Culprit Poem by Binayakumar Mohanty

The Culprit

Rating: 5.0


Beneath the eyelid
tear turns ice
smile on the lips
still on the
wall painting.

The new morn
much awaited
suckles the breast
dry and shrunken
long before.

The naughty rat
gnawing
rushes into
the ventricles
of heart and brain.

Times target
misfired again
hurt and wounded
are the innocent hunger
and stars falling down
from the lap of sky
helpless.

We the hunters
start our fresh battle
again
to catch the culprit
most wanted.
