SRIRANJI ARATISANKAR Poems

In Herzegovina & Bosnia
Poltu declared, I'm from India.'
Singing Hare ram
Play kettle drum
...

I slept before solar eclipse.
At what time level of water increased?
When crossed the danger-line?
When water adulterous became my bed-companion?
...

On Tuesday Polturam loudly sings song
Not cares a hang tune, wordings too wrong
"What sort of song" some say,
"This is the order of the day
...

In the month of April the great polturam
Keeps himself confined in a huge drum;
Even a step never walks
Going then very easy tusk
...

Standing a tree on the bank of a lake;
On leaves sparkling evening-light.
youthful Darkness-girl comes naked to bathe...
...

Her name is Miss Envy, an infatuating witch
When charms me by sorcery
I serve as her slave,
Following her order I ascend to the peak
...

On Monday Polturam climbs palm tree
All day long shouts only one two three
Those really bore
We say count four
...
