Let's talk

I can talk to you
About...

The shape of a song,
The tail of a cloud,
The faces we lust for,
The hearts we love much,
The bodies that move us,
The dances we burst into.


You can talk to me
About...

Unseen glances,
Mute noises,
Loud silences,
Open doors,
Shut windows,
Silhouette loves.


I can talk to you
About...

Moving vignettes,
Shared showers,
Wordless goodbyes,
Yesterday's movies,
Tomorrow's releases,
Weathered whispers.


You can talk to me
About...


Lifeless shares,
Facebook likes, 
Lazier comments,
Notification tones,
Blue tricks,
Costly comments.


Let's talk
About...

A period in: 
A sentence, 
A woman 
in a sentence.


But, who'll talk 
About...

Her sentence even before a period?

POV: A bullet shot from a gun

I rush out
To live
My milliseconds of fame.

From the Mahatma to the Hitler,
I do my job well.
Well, almost well.

Without consent, without hesitation,
Without a sweat, without trepidation.

I travel my ballistic trajectory. 
Alone.

I don't judge. I don't worship.
I kill.
