I do not know what I seek

by A.V. Koshy

I do not know what I seek.

In the midst of my island
this spreading pool of loneliness
widens
engulfing every green thing
on this auspicious day,
overflowing its borders.

The fish too escape.

Only a lone rock remains
jutting out like an ugly tooth
splashed by black waves
in the dying rays of the setting sun.

It's another love I spay.

  2. In the midst of my island
    this spreading pool of loneliness
    widens
    engulfing every green thing
    on this auspicious day,
    overflowing its borders...lovely flow of imagination to the remote bay of the mind..
