Rajorshi Patranabis

Denial

Crippling assortment
Lucid words cloud
Prisms of versed contradiction
Wobbled into poetic impotence

Looked around
Scarce dollops of insanity
Creeps of webbed catastrophe
Deformed slings strip in shame

That lost hunch
Intuitive notion woken insights
Silent screams hammer in delight
Tired breath and its cursed culpability

Through your answered denials
My arrogant faith slogs to believe

Incandescence

Earthly moss
Cells fed hungry brimming lives
Rooted branches burst open
You smelt my petaled existence

Hellish mud
Pores dribble through drizzles
Slides of cratered grievousness
Embraced your nocturnal nostalgia

Heavenly green
Stripped abolished blue
Arguments of endless beginnings
End remained a reality

My lust for existence learnt to abstain
Colours changed to complete our incandescence
