In annual repetition he came,
Sorrow sweeping the path before him...

Tumbling wave swept notions crash through realism
to spill into humdrum normality...

Churning assimilation in guts torn open to reveal
bleak innards meshed in manias grip...

Pedestal flame I raised you far too high
Unreachable amongst the stars above...

Poisonous beauty.
Spreading lauded wings...

Their numbers swelled as did the pride
Of those who sailed across the sea...

After all uncertainty has burned away and
vanquished are the unseen foes that led us...

Multicoloured vibrant hues
Belie the nature clouded deep...

Unhoused and unnamed,
Smothered by damp grey gauze fume...

Fan Pandit
Pray ladies do not be a flutter...

Candystripe petals peek
through deep green leaves...

An ember,
Kindled gently...
