On Why I'm Writing Obnoxious Poetry These Days

I’m tired of all the sad and depressing verse
It’s true that I’ve got many a wounds to nurse
But picking at them will only make them worse
And hence I’m writing all these happy words
I haven’t got the backbone to play a flute on
Thus, these joker’s robes I’ve decided to don
Happiness does not live forever, with time it’s bound to go
I’ll go back to my old self soon, howling at the starry dynamo
I’ve decided to have fun with my words till then
Words, which, like other words, will go all in vain
I’ll write poems so bad that they’re really bound to be good
But tell me if you don’t like them, you’re welcome to be rude
I know that it’s a façade, but please don’t tear it down
Let me remain the way I am, the same old insane clown

An Ode to Tears

Tears are really good, they wash the lachrymose
Go on, ask some Doc, and tell me what he knows

Besides, tears can solve multiple issues
And put a smile on those who sell tissues
But it’s a potent weapon, and hence don’t waste it by misuse
Don’t shed them in vain when there’s someone else to accuse
Don’t cry for reasons which are way too vague and abstruse
And if someone wrongs you, then to cry you must refuse

So cry on, silver girl, cry on by
Let your tears out, don’t just sigh
And while doing so
Forget not to blow
Your nose loud and strong
For a nose blown thus
Can soothe all of us,
Can right what is wrong

Though it’s rather preferable to cry silently
You might as well choose to do so violently
Don’t care about manners; you’ve got nothing to fear
When heart like thunder hammers, make way for the tear

Tear! Tear! The ruler of the entire humanity
Dear O’Dear! It can lead to absolute insanity!
Wherever you stay, far or near
Bow to the tear, respect the tear

It can stop wars; it can lead to many more
Like a robin it can sing, like a lion it can roar
It opens and shuts a thousand cases
And on snot-rugs it leaves its traces

It can shoot like a sniper
It can bite like a viper
It’s our only Pied Piper
We all dance to its tune
And no one is immune
From this epidemic, this infection
All of us – the entire cross-section!

Eternal teardrops on eternal cheeks
Talkin’ in a voice that no one speaks
But the tissue-seller doesn’t mind at all
The world’s a’cryin’, him having a ball

Gallons and pints of tear flows
The river of tear – it never slows
Springing down the lachrymose
Look at her – there she goes!

It is present everywhere –
All encompassing, ubiquitous
Dear tear, hear my prayer,
And never leave – you be with us


Well, it’s time for those teary goodbyes
But before I go, here’s some sound advice:
It’s really important, and so
listen to this before you go:


Whatever be your weight
And whatever be your fate,
Whomever may you mate
And whomever may you hate,
Just don’t think twice before opening the watergate

The Hitman Hits Back

Those demented souls
Of my cemented soles
Dissented on the whole
On continuing this any further


So screech and scream
And teach me to dream
Of peach and cream
And things shall fall in order.


Epilogue: Another one fights the lust

Bewilderments Reloaded!

I don’t get it why I am a subject of feminine despise
I don’t get it why my friends never give genuine advice
I don’t get the point of “vowels” rhyming with “bowels”
I don’t get it why they punish you when you’re caught in a hotel stealing towels
I don’t get it why the previous rhyme seemed so tough
I don’t get it why my poetry(!) never seems good enough
I don’t get it why Israel and Palestine bomb each other down
I don’t get it why I feel uncomfortable finding the right pronoun
I don’t get it how I used to get highest in grammar though the classes were such a bore
I don’t get it what joy you people find when my pleasantries you choose to ignore
I don’t get it why poets find the rain so romantic
I don’t get it why I don’t get the meaning of semantic
I don’t get it how can the world possibly be round when it seems so very flat
I don’t get it why sports commentators waste their time blabbering this and that
I don’t get it why I conflict with my parents all the time
I don’t get it why must I write something to make this sentence rhyme
I don’t get it why God bestowed me with such a funny looking face
And I don’t get it why you’re reading this nonsense in the first place

Well, after all these if you still think that my sanity is intact
I swear I’ll fall in love with you, and that’s an authentic fact

Take That, You Scumbags!

I hate those guidelines
That push me to the sidelines
I love the Left, I hate the Right
And I love the way the Irish say “shite”
I hate slimy-slithery-scheming cockroaches
I love sunny-side-up glorious egg-poaches
And two more lines before I leave
A sigh of relief, I know, you’ll heave
It’s just that I adore myself, and that I despise all of you
Honestly, friends, tell me if I am saying something new

Tell me that you're freaked-out enough; if not, more shall follow!

Well, as you know friends, my habits are nasty
When I see a rabbit I think: “Rabbits are tasty”
Besides, I am a sadist, and I dig on sarcasm
I might not visit you when you get a back spasm
I love to make those hideous sounds when I sneeze
And if someone clicks my photo I refuse to say cheese
And I love to sing lovely songs – loud and out of tune
And to all the insults hurled at me I’m totally immune
When I see a pretty child I can't help but think of his alluring mom
I love Harry S. Truman dearly for dropping that magnificent Bomb
All those crimes against humanity seem so very nice
They enthuse me like nothing, to life they add spice
And I’m trying to make this poem(!) as pathetic as I can
On reading this you’ll waste your time – and such is my plan
God has a moron-filter, but somehow I managed to get through
And now I’m on a mission – well, I’ve got so much to do!
The basic action plan of mine is to irritate you like hell
Now isn’t that something, buddies? Isn’t that really swell?

This Much

Well, it takes nothing, just peep inside
And stare at her, and she’ll never hide
Think of the gallery where her photos were hung
And hum those little tunes never meant to be sung

Well, it takes nothing, just a crazy smile
And a belief that she’ll wait for a while
To think that her eyes were not that splendid
And to think that thinking hurts a lot indeed

Well, it takes nothing, and no questions to ask
No curtains to tear down, no faces to unmask
To stop worrying about the right and the wrong
And to lie down where the breeze blows strong


A new song, a new truth and a new dawn
And a new and nice warm rug to lie upon
A pint of whisky! And a new tune taking shape
It’s the beginning, you know, it’s not an escape


Well, that’s all it takes to feed the dreams
And all that remains is just a fading glimpse
Of eyes that smiled and of stars that shone –
Just make-believe that you’re not all alone!

Ahoy!

A Battle-Hymn For My Comrades

By the cannon’s blazing flashes
The blood of the martyr washes
The fields of glory and joy
In the name of dream and faith
With Comrades to fight with
We hail victory, ahoy!

Charging through the mist
With our clenched fists
We shall make the sun rise
We shall stand, we shall fight
Our armours shining bright
The storm carrying our cries!

The old world to be killed
In the drenched battlefield
Soaked in blood and sweat
And freedom shall come
Beating her thunder-drum
Tears of joy to make her wet….

Comrades! The time has come now!
Touch your swords, and take a vow
To keep on fighting, and never to yield
Till the Red Flag flutters proud and free
Till the Red Star shines in all her glory
And the wounded world shall be healed….

The Vanguard

I count heads
Severed heads by the sewer
And every passing day, their number rises,

Ranks, legions - those who have
trotted past, without worrying,
fearing none save themselves….

I’m not one of them,
But I count their heads when those are severed
and thrown down the gutters.

Someday, the darkness will break away from
its prison of those moon-lit simmering
bubbles of the
sewer tanks, drains and gutter pipes,
and make it’s way unto the world
Someday it will claim its empire.

When it happens,
I’ll rise up and I’ll ride to the clouds

Till then,
I shall have no name, no home and no throne

I’m just a head-counter, sitting by the rotting
corpses of the cesspit.

Tomorrow's a li'l trip
Melon an' lemon an' hop and hip
You for all an' all for you
Grrr an' Moo an' Woof and Mew!

Tomorrow’s the morn to be
Like today is to crawl
And then it’s you or maybe me
And then the mighty all

Tomorrow’s a’ gravy red
Like a basket full o’ eggs
Yesterday is today dead
Me adored me lassie’s legs

Tomorrow the sun and myrrh
Myth and hypnos o’layla
Today pains ah today arrgh
Samson’s hair with Delilah

Tomorrow I’ll be back I guess
Or maybe it’s jus’ another lie
Hoo! I can’t lie starin’ at your face
So I looks apart and says: “goodbye”

Ek bhag kolahol….

Amake tin bhagey bhag koro na
Kakhono bonya eley machh dhoro na

Machheder chokhe shunyo dekha jaye
Amader nodii punyo-toya noy

Amader nodii onek kichhui noy
Ghum ashe nai dubiya jaoar bhoye

Bhoyer chote jegei achhey para
Ghumaye kebol raater ko’ta taara
(Bari nei Aboni
E’ kotha ta bhaboni?)

……………………………………………….

Porijayi pakhi
Ami kotha rakhi

Porijayi pakhi, kothaye tomar desh?
Porijayi nodii, kothaye tomar shesh?

………………………………………………….


Ami shobaike puriye debo
Ami shobkichhu uriye debo.

Kotha hoitey bujhhiba uposthit uhara

Aar ekta pokkhiraajer danakata upohash

Aar Trojan ghorar peter bhitor guchchher itihash….

Morchey dhora purono shabol-fola
Ebong jeyshob mithye hoyni bola:

Shob kichhu gNethey gYachhey mathaye
Tothagato giyachhilen tothaye:

Sporshey tNahar shanti shiitol chhaya
Chokkhey tNahar ghum-parani maya
