Love quarrel is a pleasure

Love quarrel is a pleasure for love desire;

It is more pleasurable to enjoy
Conjugal happiness for ever
While they happen to unite after
Cajoling and compromising the lover.

Marriage

Nothing is
Common
Between us
Except the
Bed we share
The children
We rear…
And the home
That houses
Our conjugal
Despair.

Yet we care
As marriage
Is a burden
You need to
Share…
Or
Parents will say:
Don’t you dare!

Teasing each other is a pleasure for lovers

Lovers tease each other for some time
For a silly reason and pretend to misunderstand
For the purpose of understanding
And happiness;

Teasing each other
Is a pleasure for love desire;
Then they convince each other;
And they enjoy the intimacy of love;

It is more pleasurable to enjoy
Conjugal happiness for ever;
While they happen to unite after
Cajoling and compromising the lover!

The Stages Of Marriage

marriage is indeed
relational

at the first part of it
she gives you a lover

later the lover becomes
your sister and

later the sister turns
out to be a mother

it is only when you are
dead that she becomes a wife
again

she cries for a while
she takes all that you have
and if she is still too young and desirable
another man

Verbatim

Can you come outside of you?

The dream inside a dream
of the show. It must go on.
For prudence of plucking
from singularity of indifference,
of mooning.

Once upon a moon in timeless moon
a green snake entered the moon
existing in a personal poison.

The pink, the yellow, the mauve
lilies, in a circle
going anti-clockwise
to dig out a black panther
in grass.

Of conjugal loyalty
in a fresco, when

Paradise

Alibaster sands glisten--
'Neath the Suns tropic cover-
A canopy for romance...
A hidden hideaway for lovers;

Palm trees-they tower...
As if reaching for the sky--
They are umbrellas of privacy---
For you and for i;

Balmy breezes of the Carribean-
Cool down our sweltering night...
Easing us comfortably-
Into raptures conjugal delight;

Its a perfect recipe for lovers...
A gift for renewel of bliss...
Its an enchanted island--
Thats sealed with our kiss;

The Model Prisoner

He showers each day,
and he takes out the trash.
He works in the garden at times.
Mostly he sits in his cell and he reads.
He has never admitted his crime.

He seldom gets visitors
and hasn’t made many friends.
He sits by himself at mealtimes.
He serves a life sentence-no hope of parole
Until death he’ll remain here inside.

Conjugal visits? It’s been several years.
Since last she was seen by his side.
At lights out, sometimes,
you can hear gentle sobbing
as a little bit more of him dies.

True Love

man
can't believe this one from you
to the many places you have gone
australia, las vegas,
austria, and the rest of europe
asia,
oceania, arabic countries
deserts and
oasis
african safaris
the rivers of thailand
connecting malaya
at mid 50
you come back
set a party
have so many drinks
and stories
with an ending cry
that you are still
in love

Sonnet VI: thine fair love, thine pride

I indite this ramble to prove that thine intentions
Are of graver labour into lust of thine contentions
Since denounced thee of thy conjugal consent
Apart fallen thine world ever thence
I have strived under the scorching eye of the sky
And beneath the gorgeously low moon have I so tense
To linger earnestly thine hopes where high

You do no worst my dear, despite my wrong
I shall cast thy beautiful antique into thine mind
In thy fair love's beauty treads every glow
Is there more to it that I do not know?
That stars fall in thy eyes in throng
And men claim thee of poor earth's pride
In this league of adulation my dear, I do belong

Annulment Everywhere

Liza says
it was her last option
otherwise she will simply be hurting herself
like poking a stone on her head
or stabbing her own heart
with her own knife
from her very own hands

last option: annulment
the man she says is irresponsible
incompatibility was discovered late

then follows Maila
again separated with a man sired her a boy
it is the boy that she loves more
and not the man

and so with Verna
she finally finds her man on top of another man
right in their conjugal bed
