Moments Lapse

A moments lapse widens the chasm

Yes, the journey continues through naysayers’ claims

Paths riven with a force vigorous and pernicious

When contemplated nothing, choices become violent

Pledging over the banality- time utters new diktats

Walking across the reality; a rhythm of silent rampage

Lusty eyes speak of the diabolical dreams

Cosmic silence is a mysterious language to interpret

Cryptic signs, designs other-worldly, appear faintly

When pages are dishevelled and ink loses passion

Chronicles incite the satanic stories from slumber

All that occurs in a moments lapse is cataclysmic

Living nightmares blotch the serenity of this Earth

~Amitav
