one dark night in kalimpong,when the electricity failed
and the candle flickered,i wrote:
i fear
one day
i shall be on the street
asking for alms of humble passers-by.
yet,i fear it not.
it is a mere dream
waiting to manifest itself
as my future.
then
when hunger and death alight my forlorn life,
i shall be lost
in oblivion
much like my own beginning.
utopia,
i dream
is a world peopleless
where i am the lone citizen and the king.
i loath the sun,
it blinds mine eyes
as does tears.
darkness(my friend)
is kind enough to
conceal my wreatched existence.
