SNOW

West wind chill
this afternoon
snow flying


--R.K.SINGH

PRAYER

Seeks comfort
in prayer self-escapes
spirit's fire


--R.K.SINGH

MEDITATION

The mind is dull
quiet in stupidity
repeats mantra
he says he's in a trance
sees Christ crying for us


--R.K.SINGH

MEDITATION

Unable to see
beyond the nose he says
he meditates
and sees visions of Buddha
weeping for us


--R.K.SINGH

BODY: A BLISS

"To see you naked
is to recall the Earth"
says Garcia Lorca

it's no sin to love
strip naked in bed, kitchen
or prayer room

the bodies don't shine
all the time nor passion
wildly overflows

but when we have time
we must remember the parts
arouse the dead flesh

rub raw with desire
peeling wet layers through light
sound, senses and taste

play the seasons:
the thirst is ever new
and blissful too

to recreate
the body, a temple
and a prayer


--R.K.SINGH

LONELINESS

Seeking life
in the heart of crowd:
loneliness


--R.K.SINGH

AN UNFINISHED PSALM

They all think they're almighty
but don't know doom comes
niether from east nor from west
God raises one or pulls down
for owning estate
for a mere cup now and then:
there's no forever
in the cocoon life that burts
in the thin air in moments
most unexpected


--R.K.SINGH
