Around a twisted axis turbulent time expands uncontrollably Tilted dreams, phases of shadows grow longer, a persistent fear Searching for the source; unaware of who births the light Tremulous grounds, a whirling fate twinned in a parallel reality Melting core goes deeper into chaos, a furious misdirection Revolving around the unconscious through a time bubble Unfathomable subliminal disarray, feeling dizzier during unpredictable changes -Amitav Chowdhury Continue reading Revolving
The strong dose of denialEnough to calm down the frenzyEverything is settled, or, so it seemsWho would have rallied through difficult terrainsLike an adventure predeterminedUnfriendly cold, distant worries of homeSettles deeper, in the trembling bodyEmbracing the feelingsAlso, preparing for the inclement gripFrom every corner of the landLanguages become braverHeld in frosty breathWildly beating heartNow, they are surroundedWith prayers and assurancesThe chants of the land echoesShattering … Continue reading Denial and The Journey
Silence is maligned, typical of a world that fashions the daily clamour of a life spinning uncontrollably All about time, the finest manipulator, the magical nuisance of unseen characters, powerful in the dark, surrendered to the unenlightened world Suspicious crowds, with furtive glances, trust is designed and defined by convenient expectations, a ritual in dark spaces So, all the faces look blurry, none defined by … Continue reading Furtive Glances
Time recedes, shadow diminishes, lights fickle, I am satisfied when there’s fewer interference Becoming less involved in mere interpretations and interactions; I like the pause, where all the moving images slow down, some grainy memories vanish too Life is less definable, I do not even know the keywords anymore; I do not fill in the lengthy blanks with abbreviated emotions I cannot explain anymore, but … Continue reading Receding- A Poem
You cannot fight back the reflection, it’s fragile and persistent, ego force, staring at your soul Strike it woth all your might, you hurt yourself, it cracks and ominously smiles at your rage Drawing blood, changing the course of life, flows away; the world is like a mirror Feel the unknown stares, the pathetic curiosity about someone who does not follow, unfit for comparisons How … Continue reading Fighting the Mirror
Some walk out when darkness calls, hoping to meet some other soul to share their stories Here, I play hide n seek with darkness, hoping it would not find me at all Never find out about my existence, but still encircle like an insane entity I have not acquired anything, so don’t trouble me with anymore unwanted dreams Sneak in, and plunder my peace and … Continue reading Hide n Seek with Darkness
The innate spirit travels not in a linear way Not about the lineage either, but free-spirited experiments to understand the truth Constraints of time, the entire body spins in a clockwise rhythm Natural harmony, the cosmic cadence, robbed of all senses and pleasures No more contemplation after birth, but conditioned to react to disturbing stimuli Split between to existences, one prefers the quiet corner of … Continue reading Worldly Blocks of Spirited Travel
Adjusting to the sudden luminous celebrations Missing the controls; preferably, a dimmer, a more sombre space I yearn for Pages exposed long enough scorched, looks pale, my emotions half-burnt and ashened I feel ashamed to sit through the spurious spurt in anomalies My skin feels the burn as I shiver in utter despair in rented darkness Looking for a place to retire, to recuperate, dissolve … Continue reading Mighty Dazzle
The blunt silence is so unnerving I’d rather welcome the haphazard imaginations Let my mind overthink and not lament the lack of words Allow me to wander; I can tirelessly add the many layers Complications of imaginations into the tapestry This universe is magical and mirrors quantum reflections -Amitav Chowdhury Continue reading The Blunt Silence-A Poem
