Post Modern House


Commotion of limbs under the roof

Areas abundant to tread past

Mind flutters in the infinite sky,

Held up on the Mouse

Miles of distance between rooms

Not at all noisy dining table

Drawing room built in muteness

Deep pits in the bedroom

Flatly impassionate veranda

Shower of tears in the bathroom

Storeroom that retains nothing

Half-boiled life

In the kitchen, where worries burn

No space for flowers to blossom

As there is hardly any yard

And beyond the gate,

Acres and acres of frozen ice

By Ismail Meladi
