A Father's Complaint

For Priti by Ram Krishna Singh

How can I contain her destructive energy she conceals what she is her toxic attitude they all see as she unshapes destiny of her cornpone plots in elitist mode she lets down her own folks with mendacious fabrications brings doom to her own children who were born innocent brings shame to her husband who seeks to see them rise brings dishonour to us all who hope to see her change despite the vanity wall she raised for years she won't know what to do when her parents are dead or even we are no more she can't even weep or scream on anything she touches she may then squiggle in her fate alone in a lonely room while others may look and not care

INTELLECTUALS

INTELLECTUALS

Stranded in the past
sparkling glasses in hand
intellectuals
preach ancient wisdom
to the new generation
diving nude in dried pool
to corral them along
the fence they sit bumfing
through knowledge googled
for the next day's sessions

--R.K.Singh

CRESCENT MOON

crescent night
she keeps the flame alive--
unstilled smile

POETICS

The hole between words is vaginal
if the mind could penetrate

the seed won’t question age
inside the lines it crackles

with orgasmic pleasure
meanders through the tunnel 

from first breath to oblivion
stays erect, liberates the text


— Ram Krishna Singh

FEAR

Hailstones
lashing mango florets
and car too:
I  fear thunder squall and rain
leaking roof and wetting bed

--R K Singh

My Time is Now by Prof. Dr. Ram Krishna Singh



My time is Now

the day of salvation.

Where is Father?

Playing patty-cake?

I sit a potted plant

and wait at the doorstep

tumbling sun and shade
