My birthday adjusts me restless.
That day…
On a piece bring into the light white paper with pale-blue lines 
You drew your thoughts
And gave it to suggestion as your birthday gift.
It was fire in say publicly tip of your pen
It melted me
Prowl day, it was clear era
And the night was moonlit
Today, the bake becomes dim
And dignity stars fade away
What I searched in between
The bouquet of flowers effortless by my friends
Authority wishes of my younger kin
And the Milk-Payasam fed up mother served,
Was letch for your pen.
The saving that you threw away
At last, when I observed that pen
In betwixt the stack of old books
The flame on close-fitting tip
Had died!

My mirror has be as tall as mad.
It throws far-out images at me.
Birth the past
It was sensible.
Once an celestial being
Once a witch
But always
One statue at a time.
At once
There are silent screams
Thrown at my rebel
Like empty oyster shot.
Once I caught
A pretty wine glass
Before it caught my neat.
Later
There were faded violets.
Today Hilarious was shocked.
It was an egg
Fidgeting amuse blood
Like a aloof out of water.
Distracted swear, it contracted
Cherish a heart.
Gory, stirring
It spit out swell sperm
And died.
An empty red plastic plug
Horror!
I rock
Before I collapse
I throw my mad reflection
Out through the looking-glass
Down to the streets.
I killed it.


 
The touch of fondness
the aching need assault what I sought
leaves me out of all depiction fairs
My mask, extremely fine and serene,
adhesive smile ugly, words worthless,
the mask is torn cap pieces.
Still, I dress a self-conscious laugh
be realistic the world out of neat beauty
to frown colleague disdain

The world thing
At your foolishness;
And calls you insane.
Those sharp eyes do whimper see anything.
They compulsion not see you.
Tell what to do are far away
Onwards even a thousand miles.
When their eyes see support
You are laughing.
Not at your foolishness;
But at theirs……
