A New Maxim

Do not tell me
show me,
a new maxim
for poets.

Heard from
fellow poets.
Came across
on occasions.

Tighten the lines,
get rid of a few,
tweak, trim
are suggestions.

I am bewildered.
Sense am a failure
in the wake
of competition.

Lost In His World July 20, 2021

As if I am deaf, a relative of mineexplains his breakfast he just had,.Full throated blast.

River And I July 17, 2021

The adjustments I have to make nodding at almost every happening, smiling at each incident accepting the one, reconciling with the other, marks the close of the hours. Like or dislike I get alongwithout rubbing or scratching Arguing is not my cup of teaI sail in timid waters which do not know to ebb and overturn. I never cross the jurisdiction. Earlier l […]

He will conclude saying if he has handled, the result would have been exemplary, excellent.I stand a l […]
