THREE POEMS

ILLUSION
Don’t mistake
a rope for a serpent
in the thick darkness
of the room
and
let a stream of
light enter the room
turn everything
transparent
and make vision clear always
DREAMS
Life is a constant flow
with no destination point
in sight.
In the market of life
dreams are priceless but
aplenty
demands never outstrips
supply
and
supply never outstrips
demands,
the vendor of dreams
but always remains
invisible
and we could witness
even beggars riding horses.
That’s life.
BUSINESS
Politics is a lucrative
business
requiring no capital
age no bar
education no bar
self-respect no bar
skin thickness but
a must
an ever smiling face
indispensable
always keep mouthful
of promises as well as
platitudes
self-deception an
additional qualification.
