Ram Krishna Singh

No One Sees

So much lived life
more life with life
and so much of death

yet undefined
sleeping dawn
lonely dusk
and dark spirits

forgetting to leave
my living room
now cluttered with dreams
no one sees

Pressure

Unable to endure
ancient load on the psyche
I cry in sleep that visits
like a guest and leaves fast

she says my loudness disturbs
she can’t sleep even in next room

I must seek divine relief
to sleep well pacify
the rogue planets for hungry
spirits of the forefathers

she says she hates my mind
horror movies, deviant
chakras make me see whole night

I yield to her pressure
and let them offer puja
to feed the restless spirits
but what if the left-overs
keep howling and help none?
