Reciting the most UNCONVENTIONAL SHAKESPEARE SONNET..
I recite this unconventional poem by William Shakespeare. HAVE YOU HEARD THIS EVER?
In memory-GAYA. (Poetry)
I search you in your
Faded bricks,in your

Those sly nights.

Flickering in your corners,
But those eyelids hide the
Present;shattered behind
The dusty mist.
That CLICHÉD CONTRAST.
Of a Clichéd Contrast We heard while growing up, that of Dark and Bright, that of Silence and Noise. It is years that will make you feel, what this Contrast you hear of really means. Place: Audrey House,(~160 years old building) Ranchi, Jharkhand, India.
DAILY MARKET.
Legs are trained,to hault at Calls, ‘Bees Rupya Paao,’ and tongue,to haggle over each price you talk of, ‘Das me Dijiye’. Days trained these shoulders to brush past, ‘Thoda hatiye,’ and eyes to spot the fresh of all, ‘Taaza nahi hai?’ It’s the sound that holds the story, never letting you hear what sits behind.
‘Mamma’s Coming Soon.’
‘Bare-hands are a habit,’ I said, while taking off these bangles you brought me that year,when I had two hearts inside.
