My foe, I miss you so much



My foe tried to keep me
in good humor,
flawlessly performed
like a real well wisher
Wished to elate me
elevate my mood,
an unusual conduct
to appear  too good
I knew she’s a tough nut
hard to crack her shell,
acted extremely docile
feigned to behave well

Once acted over smart
conspired a drone attack,
a telecast to befool me
to amuse her company

Some sort of ghastly act
to hurt me, hard to think,
soon seen to diffuse d’ ire
to sustain a working link

Cursed with woes, all kind
to disrupt my peace of mind,
wedged an undeclared war
my defeat, top target of her
To utmost extent feigned
to prove she's best friend
but she miserably failed,
remained a foe till d’ end

Her cute pampering tricks
are obvious, well known,
color altered now and then
like a cunning chameleon
Heart filled with hatred
yet for obvious reason,
for fake love laden smiles
her lips so often widened
 Her total in & out known
heals minor headaches,
creates a lot of concern
 too unsought heartaches

More than her own self
I'm cared, loved, valued,
ready to hug pains for me
entire world over looked

Often she makes me feel
for her I’m a nonentity,
pushes me to a corner,
ignores, I’ve no priority

Disappeared at fast pace
made me deaf and dumb,
her absence terribly felt
its withdrawal syndrome!

Thrown far after being used
no exaggeration, no hype
I’m startled and confused
I wrongly felt she’s my type

Yet I miss her so much
our lives deeply entwined
Hitches, frowns, insults
accepted umpteen times

Never seen him, yet not absurd


I casually resolved and

rushed to meet d’ God

my mediocre Santro DX 

racing on temple road



Temple doors laid open

for dusk prayer session,

Conch shell to be blown,

drums too beastly beaten



In midst of d’ trumpets’

loud deafening sound,

holy lamps to be lighted

in d’ temple compound



Group recital of hymns,

scores of rituals be done

I evidently love, such an

ambiance of devotion



Minds soaked in adoration,

 animals too enthralled often

Caught sight of a freak dog,

taking a dip in temple pond



Ajar doors pulled apart,

I kept cool, no smart act

to get a glimpse of idols,

 not eager, no hurry at all



Pushing, dashing, jostling

 steadily ought to subside

God grants ample time,

to unfold d’ loaded mind



Initial frenzy of devotees

 once languidly pass over,

a suffocation free period

ought to turn up for sure



By my side I sensed a guy,

tons of queries, lots of why

look curious but sweet chin,

face dubious, shy shrunken



Turned to me after a while

started with a gentle smile

“why apart for long period,

 least allured to see d' god?”

“Its none of your business”

I strongly wished to retort

retreated my steps back,

giving a second thought

got irritated to inner core,

silly query, so didn’t answer



With a push or pull gesture,

 intend not to see, bit earlier

chaotic milieu makes me sick,

he did avidly accept my logic



In God’s amazing creation,

nothing sustains in isolation

Almighty omnipresent god

never seen, yet not absurd

retains A to Z  synchronous

felt in each atom of universe



Sun, moon, all lives on earth,

worms, whales, moth or ants

in mitochondria of all d’ cells,

exist in d’ genes of each allele


I recited facts and he agreed,

yet so conveniently vanished

to bid good bye even if vexed

didn’t get him in temple complex 



Campus calm devotees gone

prayer’s over, seen no person

found only d’ poor creature,

droplets of water body over


Stood quietly, fully startled,

begging with silent words!

to carry on as dog on earth,

or to pray for a human birth?

Wink less eyes focused on idol,

 d' sight I won’t like to miss at all

not just an idol, so lively a god

never seen him, yet not absurd
