The Second Night

by Satish Verma

A gene switch takes an
ultimate spin. The
hunger pangs increase.
Nostalgia looks up at the moon.

I cannot predict the junk;
cannot see the dark matter.
But I know well, how you will
behave when your head explodes.

- - - - - - - - - - -

The body stuns the anointed
deity. It was difficult to foretell
who was a sinner. I
do not want to summon another god.

- - - - - - - - - - -

You open the belly knot of a
beast. A butterfly flutters
on your lips. I implore a memorable
kiss of the beautiful descent.
