Weekly Selected Poems : Reema Ghosh Majumdar

Kaput

Poetries get locked up in the attic
Music muted after several under and overtones
Creative moments enigmatic
Lost …. Lock, stock and barrel
Vagrant spaces emptied of their descent
Lifelong earnings charred in flames
Newborn flown in flood and blood
Gone…. Lock, stock and barrel,
.
Precious gems await treasure hunt
The dignity of history swimming in drains
Flags sweeping roads often under tyres
Over ….. Lock, stock and barrel
Love served in thirty-five pieces
Cheques signed as marital bliss
Infidel fingers storming on keypads
Boom …. Lock stock and barrel
