MEDITATION

Padmasan
at sea front hearing
empty waves

--R.K.SINGH

CHILLY NIGHT

Winter night chill--
without the warmth of her breath
even quilt is cold


-- R.K.SINGH

ASTHMATIC ATTACK

After midnight
he sits up wheezing, now
breathlessness echoes


--R.K.SINGH

COLD

Hearing
her silence:
cold of the bed



--R.K.SINGH

REPUBLIC DAY

Veiled in fog
mutilated Gandhi---
Republic Day

NEW YEAR

The first morning
sees the blackness of moustache
dissolved in whisky

HAITIAN EARTHQUAKE

Looting
the leftover
after the earthquake
Haiti a picture of suffering
and aloneness

EARTHQUAKE

Pulled from the rubble
a newborn's limbs with dead mom-
earthquake in Haiti

HUNTERS

Crossing the river
to enter the forest
honey hunters

FLIRTATION

Her look
unspoken flirting
or artful riff
on snaring my soul
for playful exhange


--R.K.SINGH
