Mummy

In that very afternoon,

Suddenly came running the Monsoon.

Her gaze was so filled with 

Tears,

Seeing, it seemed

The wet wind would become today

The slaughter house of

My Heart.


I saw you standing at the balcony,

Firm though motionless.

I feel,

I crawl on the Pyramid like a lizard.

As if, I'm like one,

The living Mummy of civilization.


The song of Rain comes from 

The distant sky

Who tied happiness in it?

The faded Maskd of Me shouted 

And said,

You are that face.


Let 

A few feelings get wet.

Let's go to a dead civilization 

To pick up

Some dry, fallen leaves.

Today

I will decorate your neck.

The faded Masks shouted again,

Don't get wet, you will be 

sick.

Laughing aloud, I said, I've 

Already died.

In the course of time, there it floats

It may be my Mask,,

It may be my dead face.

Then (Shantanu Dutta)Bagnan, 20.07.20

Then ( Bagnan, 20.07.20) Shantanu Dutta If you say, no more talking today, No more talking. I have gone lost, when I reach in the distant sky. Think me, I'm a cosmic pain. Suddenly I woke up to you, talking  about the night, once again. I've seen a nameless civilization into your eyes. I don't know how many light years have passed. If you think, life here is acting. Becom an indestructible bird, having  swayed, fly away into rain. A few golden afternoons are the  rate of life. As a gift, it falls on your neck. A few hints were your messenger. A few songs fly like butterfly. If you don't want a house, so be it. When the storm stops in this  infinte darkness, I will go back in love, I will accept defeat. Let the wings of desire die, on the river bank.

Your Man

If you see the flight of geese in the distant sky. If the circular moon seems to be creeping like snails. If you feel into the diffusive  light of bridal noon, that someone whispers in the way to your heart, vein and cell. You may be rest assured that the whisperer is a Man of your own acquaintance. He is not only a Poet. If on a certain day, the song of a long past raises some questions into your mind. If one falling afternoon becomes  very meaningful. If a teardrop dithers at one corner of your eye. Removing the window curtain of your bed room, look out so far as you can, Try to search out His replica into the cluster of clouds. You will find Him there certainly. Since, he is your Man. Since, he is not only a Friend. Since, he is not only a Poet.
