two horisons


on Sunday afternoon
the foxes had a feast
a feast to celebrate the summer rain
i watched from a distance
of how the clouds formed two horizons
like water and oil
the two mediums that couldnt mix

the forgotten tune

the smell of warm milky chai in the morning
lingers on til early evening
her voice on the telephone
elevating with excitement the sound of comfort
she hums that almost forgotten tune
the one i remember from my youth

a year later we meet



I had to leave you and go away but I
think about you everyday and
in the morning and the afternoon
I wish that i could see you soon

when its sung


you can write it how ever you like
but it always sounds better when it's sung

scattered mind



reflections from a scattered mind
a collection of inanimate objects
a step in the creation of order
organized disorganization

circles and squares

you talk in circles
i think in squares
you rise in the morning
with the sun to the east
as i climb into bed
mumbling my drunken goodnights

Bangladesh

i ll take the monsoons
i wont cry for the digital boxes
i just want to go back to the simple life
