            pandemonium of my



              subconscious mind












          In dreams I build glass castles,
          In dreams I walk on dead grass-

          made of thorn-spikes,

          I bleed endlessly,
          I shudder and quarrel with all my vain
          desires-




          In dreams I go to faraway lands,
          Where there are no sorrows;
          no worries of endless tomorrows,

          Where my mind is an ally,

          And heart as steady as a cloudless                   hearts,
          autumn sky-                                          Flapping their wings in secret triumph;
                                                               hidden from the eyes of passersby-


          Lying pensively on dew drenched grass

          in mid September,                                    It is a journey of rediscovery,
          I look up  at the  veil of  paint-brushed            It is a journey of reunion,
          blue sky,                                            When the gay songs of seagulls lull me

          Molten moon dripping in it like a silver             to a deep slumber,

          beaded string,                                       My  heart  heaves  with  a halfhearted
          Stars so aligned, making their own                   emotion-
          designs;                                             As I’m  lying  pensively  on the  dew

          Blurting out secrets  of past lives in               drenched grass,

          perfect unison-                                      The  soft  autumn  sunshine  seeps
                                                               through the curtains of my eyes;

          Blizzards of fiery birds flying overhead,

          Treading carefully on air;                           Taking me out of the pandemonium of

          Making splashes in the sand,                         my subconscious mind-
          Butterflies cocooned inside old mosaic
