Vishalkshi.

Her husband is dead.
Tragic or pleasing news!
That too in a car accident.
She was my love five decades back.
Our sojourn was a month
In her village where I chanced to stay.
Loveliness and gracefulness
Combined, she was a lotus.
No wonder, I loved her.
It is wonder, she loved me.
She loved me more
Than I loved her, the poor.
Her love was pure and genuine.
My love was daring and fast.
Our eyes crossed and then talked.
Our lips talked and then touched.
It is the virgin love for the both.
She sanctioned my visit once
To her house and to the room
Where we were closeted.
She believed me to such extent
That she conceded to be undraped
And surrendered to my trust.
Too tender in age, I deserted her.
It took three decade for me
To trace her and meet her.
Then she was not a lotus
But reminded me of a cactus,
Aging being prominent.

Now she is a widow.
I am not a widower.
Otherwise, I would have wiped
The sin I committed to her.

Let the death be the penalty

You are more enchanting
Than the enchantment itself.
You are more beauteous
Than all beauties combined.
I love you from my heart;
You must be the whole heart.
You are my ultimate.
The bliss is when we mate.
Let the death be the penalty.

Sex in Tantra

Sex is neither moral nor immoral.
It is amoral, more than corporal.
Who else can man love other than woman?
He can love like none other when sexual.
Such love will surpass any other love.
Only he who could unfold the strength of love
And could see and feel the Supreme Being.

Then what is the role of woman in sex?
She places herself in the place of God
And connect man, who is earthy,
To the Ultimate, and get energized.
She connects herself in the process
To the Ultimate and feel the Ultimate
She enjoys the role of a benefactor.

[Tantra is the oldest Indian philosophy,
Existing before Vedic philosophy flourished]

Womanhood in Tantra

The nudity is not an obscenity.
The nudity either in arts or in person
Is neither moral nor immoral.
To be naked is to be unashamed
And is in the realization of
The bodily perfection and no more.
There must be no shame in the viewers’ eyes.
Femininity and sexuality
And motherhood are the female’s identity.
It is the male’s gaze that shapes a woman.
Breasts are motherhood; hips are fecundity.
She is the soil where men’s seed are grown.
Face and limbs represent femininity.
In Tantra, woman is all in all.
31.12.2007

The prejudiced love

We belong to the same caste

The same profession and

The same social status.

We started loving each other.

Is it love?

31.12.2007

Not to be a cartoonist

If I were an artist, yours would be my figure.
If I were a poet, yours would be my thought.
If I were a writer, yours would be my theme.
You in mind, I don’t want to be a cartoonist.
30.12.2007

The prejudice counts

Had I not known that it was she
Who had been crowned Miss World,
Could I have given her that weight
That I had given? Prejudice counts.
30.12.2007

The merit of love

I have enjoyed seeing your grandmother sing.
I have later enjoyed seeing your mother sing.
Now I am interested in seeing you sing.
Adaptability is the merit of man’s love for woman.
30.12.2007

Without inhibition

When two make love,
The night loses its colour,
The time, its relevance,
The self, its distinction
And the space, its paucity.
Sweats taste sweet, and
Odour turns lavender.
Identity is dissolved
Shame is mortgaged.
Each one pleases and gets pleased.
Each one purrs and gets purred.
Each one yields and gets in return.
That place and that time
Give them the very heaven,
Where they float
With out any inhibition.
29.12.2007

To make one smile

I am pleased to know that you smile.
I am still more pleased to know
That I am the reason behind it.
To make smile is more than to smile
29.12.2007

The Flea

 
A flea that bit you had bitten me too.
The two bloods mingled for single blood.
The flea’s body is our marriage lobby.
Neither shame nor sin would accrue since then,
Nor would you have grown any weaker too.
By yielding to me and getting my blood
You would shed no grace nor honour either.
You will make me than the flea, happier.
Your yielding to me will not do more harm
Than what the flea has done to you, dear.
[The verse of John Donne, The Flea, rewritten]
20.12.2007

Woman’s resoluteness

Guilt, qualm, shame, stigma or repercussion:

None of them will weigh with a woman as much

As her feelings that she is not that cheep

And that let him not snatch her that easy,

When she refuses to yield corporeally

Even to the man of his choice outside.

20.12.2007

True freeness

Man and woman, even old,
Have a right to their sexuality.
Man and woman must have
A right to the consensual sex.
19.12.2007

No fair one is true

Nowhere lives a fair woman true.
If at all there is a woman constant,
The status is short lived and time bound
Till she encounters another youth.
19.12.2007

The curiosity

You aren’t worthier than mine
But unlike him, new to me.
So I admit you

You aren’t prettier than mine
But unlike her, new to me.
So I reach you.

Curiosity brings two sexes together.
18.12.2007

Not marrying is a sin

Women of beauty must marry
And bear children and not lead their
‘Grace to the grave and leave the world
no copy.’ Else it is a sin.
16.12.2007

Sexual game is all giving

I see her beauty, hear her sigh,
Smell her sweats, taste her mouth
And feel the insertion.
Where else, other than in sexual act,
Can I feed my five senses
Equally, all at a time?
06.12.2007

Neither here nor there

Coming together is interesting
Going together is comforting.
Staying together is straining.
Parting away is relieving.
Neither by oneself nor in company
Can a man live and hence shifts
02.12.2007

Not an anomaly

You can fall for some heroine,
Or for one of your colleague
Or for someone next door,
Whom you have no hope of getting.
No harm; each one does; do it.
It is not an anomaly.
Don’t further it so as to invite trouble.
01.12.2007

Beauty is described.

She is a beauty
Whose mouth is as wide as a python’s,
Whose nose is as sharp as a sparrow’s
Whose neck is long as a peacock’s
Whose mane is as dense as a lion’s
Whose hip is as broad as a duck’s
And whose legs are as tall as a crane’s,
What about her breasts?
Any shape; breasts themselves are beauty
For men, who’d been denied breast feeding.
01.12.2007

Never ceasing

 

That she is not the first I woo
Does not deter me from doing so.
That I am not the first to her
Does not deter me from doing so.
I know I’ll be one more fall out.
I know she’ll be one more drop out.
Yet I have been doing it since my bloom.
29.11.2007

Vision gives pleasure

My darling is dancing on the stage.
I cannot reach her or have her.
Yet I enjoy myself with her figure,
Part by part, with eyes shut to her dance
24.11.2007

Man by nature is bad

How narrow I am!
I don’t love others’
As I love my child.
How hollow I am!
I don’t lust my wife
As I do others’
21.11.2007

Personality overtakes

Madhuri Dixit at 42
Surprisingly has been named
The sexiest Asian woman for 2007
Only next the young Bipasha Basu.
Yes, sexiness goes beyond one’s looks.
It is your personality, the way
You carry yourself and the manner
You groom yourself that matter,
Not the vibrant youth alone.
17.11.2007

So sweet, no regrets

Come here; come to me; my dear.
Give in before my desires dry.
Grant me before your desires dry.
Your lips must part and breasts wake up.
Your bottom must turn a hot bed,
That the sweats, like fountains, must wet.
Set aside your blushes, I beg.
Set aside your virtues, I beg.
You will get what you miss, I bet.
Have a course, which is not a curse
It is a myth that you are spoilt.
It is an act of sport, that’s all.
Come here, very now, my dear.
Give in before my desires die.
Grant me before your desires die.
Be it a consensual act
And so soon a buried secret..
So sweet as it is, no regrets.
08.11.2007

Be bold; I’m here

Come, grant me yourself and forget.
Let it be a one time affair.
How long will your lips be cold?
They must be crushed for its warmth.
Enough that your breasts are sleeping.
They must wake up and warm up.
Your base must turn a volcano
And the body be wet with sweats.
Eyes closed, let the body boil.
Who can rekindle your spirit
Other than a paramour like me?
Come, grant me yourself and forget.
You will get what you are missing
And I’ll keep it as a secret.
10.11.2007

As good as a virgin

 








Maybe she had someone in her heart
Or close to her bosom or with her on the bed.
She has chosen you to marry at last,
And it is you whose seed she is to carry.
It tells none is more than you to her.
You must hold her as good as a virgin.
08.11.2007

The human’s mystery.

How much a heart can hold,
How fast a mind can fly
And how deep eyes can scan,
No one can comprehend in others.
That is what the human’s mystery is.
06.11.2007

Your woman

No woman is yours because you got her love.
Nor is she yours for body contacts.
She is not yours despite conjugation.
She must be ready to conceive for you.
28.10.2007

Adultery crumbles

 











Love across caste, creed, region and religion
Is no more a taboo. Stigma to widows
And divorcees too have been torn since.
Sex premarital and extramarital
Are connived at. Motherhood without
Wedlock is no longer a shame.
Living apart together and having
Marital life without marriage have got
acceptance
Words such as whore, adultery, bastard
Have lost their contemptuous meanings.
We reach where we have left in a circle.
28.10.2007

You are inescapable

Dear, you, who once had made
In me a permanent impression,
Cannot altogether deny your image
By denying your love and concern.

Dear, you, who once had made
In me an ever lasting vibration,
Cannot outright wipe out your image
By denying me ways and access.

Dear, you, whose striking image
Had become an integral part of me,
Cannot bar me from acting in what way
I want to deal with you in my brain.

I can catch you where no one can watch you.
I can hold you, where you can kill your fear,
On every part from head to foot
Without any scar to your modesty.

With you in me, I turn a bisexual.
Self fertilization takes place with in,
With your elusiveness notwithstanding,
Without prejudice to your chastity.

Dear, you, with such impression as the ones
That you had made in me for a long time
Cannot forbid me from feeding on you
In my memory, no corporally.

.

Why half trodden?

The shadows of ours overlap.
The glances of ours lock.
The hearts of ours shuttle.
Why not, then, our limbs and lips?
22.10.2007

Woman prefers wealth

With his wallet fat,
A harlot can find
In any old man
A god of love but
Will fail to do so
In a handsome youth,
If he is penniless.
14.11.2007

Love is not worth its price.

Love is always bought
With a price higher than
Its worth and is realized
After it is bought.
13.12.2007

Woman’s love

Woman does not give love to man.
She only receives it from man.
Her acceptance of love from man
Itself is the sign of her love to man.
13.10.2007

Sexual currents

The shadows of yours and mine mingled
As we were bodily separated though.
The eyes of yours and mine crossed
As it was a fraction of second though.
Enough! It gives me sexual currents.
13.10.2007

The imagination

I salute to the God
For the power of imagination
He has given me.
With it, I could x-ray parts
You have hidden from men’s eyes.
With it, I could have you in my arm
Against your acceptance
With it, I could take you to my bed
Against your willingness.
With it, we tend to compensate
What we want to have but couldn’t.
08.10.2007

It is not half cooked

Having heard and read, I wrote.
Having seen and felt, I wrote.
I wrote of love and romance
From experience and perception.
As I wrote I was soothed.
Don’t scorn my writings as half cooked.
10.10.2007

The law of sex

The sexual desire goes like that:
All that a male wants from a female
Is not her love for him at all
But her very nod to his moves.
09.10.2007

Who will save who?

Worms to toads, toads to snakes,
Snakes to pigs, pigs to men
And men to worms are food.
A concatenated food chain.

Lilly loves Peter; Peter loves July;
July loves John; John loves Lilly.
A concatenated love chain.
06.10.2007

Woman is liberated

Marriage is no longer a must.
Chastity is no more a virtue.
Virginity is not to be purity.
Infidelity is not held as cheat.
Having sex is like a friendship.
Man must reconcile to it
Else he is in jeopardy
02.10.2007.

Not to be cheep

A man takes it granted that a woman,
Whose mate in his view seems low someway,
Could be approachable, and thus reaches.
To prove that she’s not cheep, she’ll spit.
02.10.2007

Exploration is a joy

Having not seen a horse,
I went to see a horse.
Having not seen an ass,
I went to see an ass.
Both were enthralling.
Any woman new
Is worth exploring.
02.10.2007

Who will forgive them?

A mother of the twelve
And a father of the thirteen
Fell in love with each other,
So irresistibly,
At their work spot
And eloped themselves,
Enjoyed themselves elsewhere,
In their short honeymoon,
And returned and then hanged
From a tree, with their palms
Grasping even in death.
It being a real incident,
The odds against them
Were much more than
Those against any Romeo and Juliet.
Yet, who will forgive them?
02.10.2007

Shadows

Women are shadows.
Man can pursue them.
He cannot catch them.
So he takes them as shades
And rest in those shades..
30.09.2007

Can I dare fear?

Anita, my love for you is total
And your love for me is vital.
As you are but woman, I dare
But as you are someone’s, I fear.
Desire does not die from fear
Nor does it make me dare either.
30.09.2007

Worthier man and woman

She is such a woman
That women find her
Worthier than any other woman
And men, the rarest of all women.
He is such a man
That men find him
Worthier than any other man
And women, that the greatest of all.
She and he must be better match
But that really does not happen.
21.09.2007

A hare after the carrot

It behoved me to do petty sacrifices
To those women whose attentions I got,
Without knowing that they have held me
Like a hare running after the carrot.

‘It must not behove a pot to call a kettle black’
16.09.2007

A woman’s loss

A mother to her son is no more a repute
If her modesty is suspected.
A wife to her husband is no more cute
If her fidelity is suspected.
A daughter to her father is no more worth
If her virginity is suspected.
To gain their love and affection,
A woman has to sublimate her passion.
13.09.2007

Please go away

I thought it would be hard but I’m o.k.
I’m better off without you any way.
You’re a waste of time; I must get rid of you.
I’m sick of you and you’re a prick.
I can do better if you are away-
From my heart and from my thought.
I can do better if you are away,
Sans your presence and appearance.
Haunt me not; torment me not, be away.
I must live in peace; you must leave at once-
From my muse, and from my bones.
You gone out of sight, out of brain,
I could find ways to mend my ways.
I wish I hadn’t met you.
Be it a scar, better than burns.
Let us part, with the loss of the hope.
11.09.2007
