her teasing face September 15, 2008

so much introvert and reserved I am
unfriendly nature, badly I behave
get angry at slightest provocation
why do I conceal myself in a cave

to share joy and win my friendship she tells
in my ears, stories of her private life
by e-mail she sends honeymoon photos
she knows I could become her husband’s wife

why isn’t she happy with my lover?
with me why would she maintain any link?
why at all she talks about her hubby?
she enjoys making me jealous, I think

I see everywhere teasing face of her
not to lose temper, solace I prefer

juice flowing in the piece of small bread
she mixes in rotten and stinking rice
her dream in relief woven like a thread
in her womb someone biting like a mice

her starving body is burning in pain
mind wavering of a loving mother
with spread of germs and disease in the grains
death for anyone is bad news for her

hopes, passion floating in the waves of time
but call it horror or life sneering death
to produce hungry kid is mother’s crime
her decaying body source of new breath

a cradle hanging in a dying womb
can only give birth to hunger and gloom

on clothes of mother nature dirt gathers
silly men torment her with a great pride
time gone when nice gardens used to lather
with lovely fragrance like newly wed bride

grape farms are supervised by greedy dogs
who spoil everything above and beneath
spreading pollution, acid rain and fog
nicely play by squeezing flesh in their teeth

some creatures live near dustbin like pigs
carry blame for spreading foul smell so strong
facts are clouded by arguments very big
no one knows who is right and who is wrong?

on silver scale dead words lie on one side
quite heavier than living kids worldwide

God made some pairs like sparrow and pigeon
He made monkey and gorilla, then feared
Can hobbits and men have the same religion?
He tried hard but the hobbits disappeared

It was scary for God, the man without wits
thinks of black and white as species, How weird!
how will He stop massacre of the hobbits
men will drink blood with red stain on their beard

“”we love our brother hobbits”” men’s slogan
 former learnt cooking for the men much revered
in whose heart lies the dictator Shogun
will arrange the others being bashed and smeared

dirty little heart of silly men linked
with the fact that little hobbits are extinct

A Prank April 16, 2008

Theme : Guilt 
A Prank
by Harihar Rai Jha

A blind girl asks me, “is it day or night?”
my old classmate she is, not blind by birth
I get hurt when she asks in broad day light
to answer is futile, what is its worth?

Her bad luck it was, a prank turned tragic
accident happened in a chemistry lab
perceived as no one’s fault what a magic!
a few people thought it was hide and stab.

At her silly question my head explodes
pain in my blood infiltrates into bones
how to help her, sympathy makes inroads
Why do I melt when my heart is like a stone?

Anguish in me tries to escape in vain
A guilt-ridden man cries in throbbing pain

Pleasure or Pain? March 31, 2008

Theme : Passion

Your dead silence is very frightening
so much mysterious is your laughter
no escape! you are thunder and lightening !
to merge in you I come tumbling after

You annihilate my sturdy feeling
and blast the cobweb of my complex thoughts
with love you flood my heart’s core and ceiling
what a real volcano your touch has brought

Magic in you has a spiritual credo
fountain of cheers emerging from your eyes
craving desire with cheering libido
in pain suffers silently, my heart cries

In you I have jumped , be it loss or gain
God knows this passion is pleasure or pain?

Mask March 3, 2008

naive children wear mask to frighten their friends
How silly they are! not sober like me!
aren’t they proudy and stupid in the end
I’m ideal inside out, you must agree

I am a great thinker and free from bias
but chase any target at your command
Get crooked work done if you are my boss
I twist my scruples , ethics on demand

with no morals or shame, I do shuttle
be any situation, I must win
pain in my heart so severe and subtle
I hide to transplant mask beneath my skin

children use mask just to play and enjoy
to hide my fear and greed masks I deploy
