Satish Verma Poems

I will ask you no more.
An answer settles the question.
Let myriad questions remain in air.
Thirst is larger than the river.
...

Step aside.
Tension of mining gold
barrels through
mating preference.
...

When jasmines sway,
a fling of scented air strikes your
face.The hymn to bouquet failed.
...

Listen Hamlet, there was
the age gap. I am learning to die
and you will defeat yourself.
...

The truth of my blood
at the mensal
without prayer and anguish.
...

Coming of age. Sometimes
it disturbs. I will play with fire, in separating
flames. Sun was not cooling.
...

Segment by segment
the secret breaks. There was
no song afterwards.
...

A butterfly
in a bell jar.
All I know, we understand
each other.
...

Hard and brittle,
the cost of sealing the lips
was increasing overnight.
...

The lesion was
spreading. From
inside, I hear the wails.
...
