Uprooting

by Satish Verma

The intrigues, the twists
unravel the woven threads
of the mystery. Traumatized
and dazed, I play

Dice with the unknown to
find out the truth.

Confronting the purpose
of existence,
you come out of the flesh
after flogging
and start dancing
with the bones.

Extremely poor,
you play the hand
and fail.

Elsewhere someone
climbs on the pole
and sets the house on fire.
