A SOULESS POET

QUERY

Why damsel,

My mind invites you not,

My blood absorbs you not,

Know not why, the absence for my thirst,

The reason in you or the reason in me,

Bemused deep within, am i not,

Sagacity lost, searching for answers,

Infuse in me and let begin the blizzard of bliss,

Seduce me ‘o’ damsel,’o’ sweet poison.

ANSWER?

Why Mother,

Believe me, will you not,

Despise my puzzle, do you not,

Answers in my tale, while I say it,

“Vanished forever my Anna,

Slain cruelly with vicious blades,

Torn apart by brutal stabbing,

Unjustified justice help elude nabbing,

Culprits in Jaffna or Vienna, yet not known”

Helpless grief accompany hopeless vengeance,

Suck my sadness into you,

Sedate me ‘o’ mother, ‘o’ sweet poison

TRUTH.

Why devil,

Believe me, will you not,

You can see lies in me, do you not,

“lie, but not to you” said Anna once,

Truth in my life, while i say it,

“malice in the hands and not on blades,

An act of dirty mistrust, frivolous distrust,

Mind disguised her brother as her lover,

Anger clouded my mind, fury blinded my eyes,

Blades poisoned with suspicion gorged her breast”

Except me, anna loved no one,

Except suspicion, i loved no one,

And now,

Except me, grief loves no one,

Except me, guilt haunts no one,

Execute me, ‘o’ devil, ‘o’ sweet poison......
