The shambolic evening sings music
With petals of petunia in my thigh
I mock at the hypocrite crowd
The masked souls, enough of charcoal tonight
I shall burst my bubbles of insanity you say, for I am home to wild hills
Where the temple bell sing jingles to my arteries
Sinking in my color, the eccentric red blood
Coinciding with my footsteps, filling the craters of my lipstick
Filling the lacuna of my hairline
Giving it an atom of granite
Splendid marks will arise from my delight soul kissing even your dark loopholes
Will you do the same? Oh shame!
I have the meraki of dark silence comforted as butter in my palm
My sweet innocent innocuous palm.

Your commanding and brilliant use of adjectives is second to none. You stimulate the imagination of the reader like fireworks on New Year’s Eve. I think my favourite here is how you cast aside the charcoal for more vibrant colours. It really shows that while you embrace your dark side, you also flourish in the light. I love how easily and almost imperceptibly you were able to juxtapose the darkness with the light in this poem. This is why you are such a great poet, Devika – you draw readers in, like sheep to their shepherd, and you hold them with your amazing ability to weave stories that touch hearts and souls, connecting us to your words, emotions and life force. Beautiful!! I think I have now read every thing you have posted and it feels good 🙂

You actually have read all my work and here I stand still guilty as I am unable to read your latest posts. I will surely head over there soon.
But your insights have made my day really. So much appreciation coming from you tells me I have not lost my writing skill which I was doubting off late.
You are yourself amazing and truly you are a stunning person.
Thankyou so much writer friend.

You need never apologize to me for not being able to always read me. I understand the poet’s mind and heart and soul.
I will also admit, I sensed your doubt in your work and wondered how could that be for you are one of the greatest poet’s I know.
When I say I love your words, I mean it. When I say I truly admire the poet behind those words, I mean that, too.
I am humbled by your comments to me but this is all you. I will always read you with the closeness your poetry deserves and I will always share my thoughts with you.
You are welcome, my dear writing friend 🙂
