The Siege

 

                                                 
 
           The face
 
           by a stroke of accident
 
           intruding through my retina
 
            (trunslucent with age)
 
            laid a siege
 
            on my entire self.                       
 
            The outermost fringe   
 
             of the innermost plasma
 
             unspared.
                         
              Disarmed ruthlessly of all 
 
               hoary inhibitions
 
               my arms
 
                (hungry through the aeons)
 
                 crush the air
 
                  in the spilling of
 
                  joyful embrace.
 
                   Alas --
 
                    the magnificent shapes
 
                    melt reluctantly into tormenting curls
 
                    rising out of a cualdron of
 
                     mingled soup.
 
                     Till then I din't know
 
                     it's the only face
 
                     the very essence of my whole being 
 
                      craving for 
 
                      since ages.
