Prayag Saikia Poems

Like a sprout
new time appears
from the cocoon of a hibernating past.
...

Great hearts become hiku,
soaring high.

The ethereal muse,
...

Slay me,
and place my body,
beneath a rock.
...

There will be no more walls.

Walls shall be ripped asunder,
by the judgement of children.
...

A sapphire lake,
a white swan.

From the placid veil of blue
...

The testament of endurance
remains etched to live.

Scavengers do not fly
...

Have you engraved any epitaph
on the Buddha
shattered by the Talibans
...

It is not ignorance
Rather
The illusion of knowledge
Is
...

A flock of birds hovers in
And appears to eclipse the Sun
The vermilion tinge effects light vibration
In a camera
...

Trees are full of foliage
It's springtime
The leaf-eater goat
In the shades of those leaves
...
