HOPE

HOPE

among the white hairs
a solitary black one
keeps her hope alive

EMACIATION

EMACIATION

I am an image
they secretly deride
in the classroom
mental emaciation
bridges the gap
that feeds a teacher
to teach another

RACIST

in perfect accent
they discuss finance &
foam with color
at the dining table
smell stale beer

--R.K.Singh

DROWSILY

rises drowsily
after a sleepless night
a sick sun

--R K Singh

FROG

a yellow snake sneaks
through the blooming balsams bed
a lone frog puffs up

--R K Singh

NIGHT

NIGHT

night washes the sky–
the sun brings morning freshness
to my window
