Indian Poet Nikhil Parekh

I used them to trample incorrigible chunks of wild clay,
violently kick orphan splinters of soft pebble that came my way.

i wore them while clambering up menacing slopes of the snow clad mountain,
waded through placid waters of jungle river at leisurely pace.

i brutally dismantled inarticulate walls of the glistening sandcastle,
tread harmoniously; with nonchalant vigor on an army of desert crab.

i aimlessly loitered through solitary streets of the city; a few hours preceding dawn,
tenderly kissing pliable cakes of cow dung plaster that confronted my way.

i assassinated transparent panes of the shop window; into a fine spray of white
chowder,
stole exquisite pieces of saffron cloth; from the dark ambience of the closet.

i jogged incessantly across the sparkling meadow; with sporadic pants of breath,
made cacophonic noises; crushing withered leaves of the oleander maple.

i stood fearlessly on a battalion of fiery red ant,
escaped unhurt; as the animate creatures tried puncturing the leather without respite.

i even adhered them to my feet; with long strands of shriveled rubber,
descending to fathomless depths of the ocean; exploring blood red coral reef’s.

i traversed unrelentingly on steaming patches of barren land,
they still seemed to hold my weight; bereft of squeaks and discordant sounds.

i took them out for few hours; when sunk in the domains of blissful sleep,
my twin pair of corduroy shoes still guarded me against jinxed spirits,
exuberantly anticipating the fresh soles of my rustic feet,
as the clock ticked a second past brilliant dawn.

Control it; or prepare to loose all your sense of overwhelmingly sagacious prudence,

Control it; or prepare to blend like a piece of frigid chalk in profoundly bedraggled soil,

Control it; or prepare to slacken your invincible stranglehold on the periphery of precious life,

Control it; or prepare to swoon down inevitably towards the ground; as the heat was no longer conducive for your nerves to bear,

Control it; or prepare to uncouthly erase the ocean of blissfully nostalgic memories forever from your intricate mind,

Control it; or prepare to plunge down into the fathomless deep valley; after successfully clambering up the astronomically gigantic summit,

Control it; or prepare to punctuate gaping holes; in your impeccably synchronized plan of unconquerable triumph,

Control it; or prepare to embarrassingly slip on a road embedded profusely with obdurate spikes,

Control it; or prepare to let the indiscriminate flames of blistering Sun; char you to infinitesimal fragments of insipid ash,

Control it; or prepare to accept pathetically crippling defeat; when unprecedented triumph was just a hair away,

Control it; or prepare to plummet below the diabolical dungeons; for the ultimate spin of your life,

Control it; or prepare to have blissful entities traversing down the streets turn for your blood; like an untamed pack of parasites,

Control it; or prepare to start counting backwards all over once again; after reaching the colossally unfathomable numeral of infinity,

Control it; or prepare to succumb like a mountain of ice; infront of salacious lechery and blatantly stinking lies,

Control it; or prepare to wander in diminutive wisps of obsolete oblivion; after the planet had discarded you like a piece of shit,

Control it; or prepare to become an impoverished victim of your own idiosyncrasies; trembling uncontrollably on the abysmally heinous crocodile,

Control it; or prepare to get mercilessly entangled into the most treacherously complicated web; in which ironically there was no grizzly haired spider,

Control it; or prepare to take the perilous onslaught of the hideously menacing devil on your lungs; pulverizing them to worthless sand under its satanic might,

Control it; or prepare to relinquish the love that mattered the most to you; in your destined quota of life,

And control your anger; or prepare to perpetually imprison yourself infinite feet beneath your grave; even when you were still breathing and more exuberant than when God had given you new life.

While I fantasized about plunging into stormy waves of the ocean; relishing the

served by her bedside with sizzling hot scones,

While I ingratiatingly desired to drench my silhouette completely in
showers from the sky.

While I vigorously rubbed my hair with raw lime; annihilating remnant traces of abhorrent dandruff.

She wanted to play intricate games of billiards; chess and cards; within the plush interiors of her palace,
While I simply went berserk; bursting with waves of euphoria at executing swashbuckling strokes with my baseball bat.

She wanted a cavalcade of cars pursuing her wherever she went; a battalion of
cameras to snap her photograph,
While I wanted to be left solitary on the street; uttering a volley of expletives when provoked.

She wanted the cool air of air-conditioner to incessantly pacify her heat,
While I was quite contented to feel the stringent summer breeze blow wildly across my face.

She wanted a fresh vase of flowers to embellish her room; throughout the
tenure of the acerbic day,
While I roamed about in the jungles; hunting large fish; caressing my lips to
the pungent aroma of blackberry shrub.

She wanted to be a glamorous model; with a plethora of people admiring her
ostentatious jewelry,
While I simply detested the high society; was supremely ecstatic when given a chance to mix with innocuous children.

She wanted to love me like a commodity; besieging my neck in a straps of leather;
While I had this overwhelming desire of guarding her against evil; wiping her tears when it mattered the most,
We were actually; excellent illustrations of conflicting personalities; God had ever created on this earth.

Her royally emollient eyelashes were the ones which timelessly flirted me; eternally drowning me into an unfathomable sea of seductively untamed mischief,

gruesomely stuttering soul; righteously decimated even the most inconspicuous trace of prejudice from my banefully vexed countenance,

A complete surrender of my profoundly sensuous artistry; the miraculous power in my fingers to evolve magic out of inanely vexing nothingness; by the grace of Almighty God,

humanitarian ideals that encompassed every aspect of my truncated life,

O! Yes; A complete surrender of even the most ethereal traces of my mind;
body and benign spirit; A complete surrender of all burgeoning goodness bestowed upon me by the Omniscient Almighty Lord; A complete surrender of even my most remotely obsolete of shadow,

Only at the feet of my newly born daughter; at the feet of my Goddess of
love; at the feet of my sole messiah who not only taught how to live for the
moment; but divinely blessed me with a limitless more immortally jubilant lives.

I didn’t want to capture her eyelashes; the ostentatious mascara delectably embellishing her nimble lids,

I didn’t want to capture her skin; which glowed to an overwhelmingly voluptuous crimson under the impact of garishly personified talcum powder,

I didn’t want to capture her lips; which had profuse coating of pretentiously sleazy lipstick,

I didn’t want to capture her hair; which had bombastic coatings of contemporary hair dye,

I didn’t want to capture her waist; which danced tantalizingly enveloped by chains of haughty silver,

I didn’t want to capture her earlobes; swishing daintily with opulent emeralds of sapphire green; procured fresh from the sea,

I didn’t want to capture her palms; embossed with mystical designs available rampantly in the contemporary market,

I didn’t want to capture her breath; which was now blended with the most alluring of artificial sandalwood perfume,

I didn’t want to capture her fingers; which were adorned with a myriad of pompously glittering rings,

I didn’t want to capture her voice; which had profound traces of a deliberately pernicious slang embedded in it,

I didn’t want to capture her teeth; which had prominent encapsulations of the most expensive paste adhering them,

I didn’t want to capture her muscle; which had evolved over a period of time; after her voracious consumption of exorbitantly costly steroids,

I didn’t want to capture her shadow; as it meekly coalesced with obsolete oblivion without the most minuscule of prior notice,

I didn’t want to capture her sweat; which was incredulously scented with the boundless repertoire of body lotions she used; literally every unfurling
minute of the marathon day; every time before she closed her eyes for the sultry night,

I didn’t want to capture her cheeks; which were indiscriminately inundated with truck loads of pertinent chemical sprays,

I didn’t want to capture her saliva; which had obnoxious traces of foreign chewing gum and cherry,

I didn’t want to capture her nails; which were painted with the most gaudily conventional nail polish available in the trendy market,

I didn’t want to capture her conscience; which had inevitably become manipulative; as she struggled for her existence in this uncouth world,

Although each part of her body appeared artificial; there was definitely one thing that I wanted to capture; and that was her heart; longing and thunderously throbbing wilder than the most wildest of storm; more importantly than anything rendering me the complete control of its passionate beats.

Even if infinite eyes of mine made a single blind person see; I would consider my life to be endowed,

Even if infinite ears of mine made a single deaf person hear; I would consider my life blissfully divine,

Even if infinite legs of mine made a single maimed person run; I would consider my life higher than the sacrosanct skies,

Even if infinite smiles of mine made a single orphan oblivious to the definition of pain; I would consider my life richer than all wealth assimilated on this planet,

Even if infinite voices of mine made a single dumb person speak; I would consider my life to be as celestial as the dancing fairies,

Even if infinite muscles of mine made a single deprived person strong; I would consider my life in perfect synchronization with the divine master who had created it,

Even if infinite teeth of mine made a single old person scrupulously chew his meals; I would consider my life achieving the ultimate it had been created for,

Even if infinite hair of mine made a single shivering person regain his warmth; I would consider my life more tenacious than any storm,

Even if infinite tears of mine made a single satanic person accept the chapter of humanity; I would consider my life a beautiful flower whose essence never withers,

Even if infinite fantasies of mine made a single mad person wholesomely blissful; I would consider my life a paradise on which the angels tread,

Even if infinite tunes of mine made a single lost person remember his impeccable childhood; I would consider my life more privileged than countless more births
to unveil,

Even if infinite droplets of my blood made a single wounded person bounce back to euphoric life; I would consider my life to be the most treasured gold on this fathomless earth,

Even if infinite days of mine made a single slaved person see brilliantly infallible beams of sunlight; I would consider my life in splendid harmony with the marvelous fruits of mother nature,

Even if infinite kisses of mine made a single lecherous person savor the goodness of care; I would consider my life bereft of the tiniest of acrimonious thorn,

Even if infinite hearts of mine made a single monotonous person love; I would consider myself more blessed than the saints meditating for years in obsolete wilderness,

And if infinite breaths of mine made a single dead person rhapsodically galloping under the sky and fully alive; I would consider my life more marvelous than Omnipotent spirit of existence and complete.

I saw her mesmerizing face in the walls; while pouring sizzling tea in my
cup,
Although I soon realized that I was rampantly fantasizing; as the steaming
liquid burnt my skin; spilling over the immaculate material of my trousers.

I saw her magnanimous silhouette in the rocks; while driving my car through
circuitous routes of the valley,
Although I soon realized that it was a figment of my imagination; as the car
swerved violently colliding with the hand rail; overlooking a few thousand
feet into panoramic space.

I saw her jelly blue eyes while walking on each vehicle; while walking through
the congested street,
Although I soon realized that I was dreaming under the sun; as compact cars
whizzed inches from my body; leaving clouds of black smoke for me to inhale.

I saw her honey coated red lips in the wall; as I languidly strolled through
the interiors of the mystical palace,
Although I soon realized that I was out of tangible senses; as I violently
barged against the iron doors; tripping neatly over a jugglery of intricate
furniture.

I saw her dainty feet embedded with jingling bells; as I sat peacefully at the
precarious edge of the bridge,
Although I soon realized that I was drowned in a reverie; as I plummeted down;
losing my stoical composure to blend with the chilly waters of the river.

I saw her ravishing hair flowing in the gentle breeze; as I ruminated on my
past while cooking food,
Although I soon realized that I was romanticizing a bit too much; when eerie
whistle of the pressure cooker inundated my sensitive ears.

I saw her smiling revealing her magnanimous teeth; while playing cricket with
the sun god shining above my head,
Although I soon realized that I was in seventh heaven; when the hard ball
struck me on my chin; giving my face a ghastly black swollen look.

I saw the vivacious outlines of her eyebrows; while writing my examinations,
Although I soon realized that I was wistfully perceiving; when the slender
cane of my professor lashed stringently on my scalp.

I saw her rubicund cheeks embossed with blemishes; while lifting bulky weights
in the gym,
Although I soon realized that I was intensely dreaming in the day; when the
heavy bars landed with an abrupt thud on my chest.

I saw her in part and whole; throughout the monotonous day; in my dreams; and
in every person I met; irrespective of caste and creed,
Yes O! divine creator; you know as well as I do; the only reason behind my
absurd behavior; was that I was compassionately in love.
