SLEEPING LIGHT

The bulge near the waist
in the blue coat tells
of her hubby's love

the anxiety
on her face tells of
the gap in relationship

the unread letter
and the pearl earrings
on the cushion reveal all

the brown-yellow map
under the glass on
the centre table
fails to predict whereabouts
of her man awaited long

the evening's shade of mystery
couples with emptiness
light fails to hide


--R.K.SINGH
