i seek the ruby honey in garnets, the milk of pearls entangled
in strings of juhi; mixed with the scents of
powder puffs and calamine;
i like sequins to edge my velvet doilies
in mirrored doubles;
i see
the yearning lakes of my
eyes in those mirrors and watch
my self mesmerised.
sometimes i seek those who know
about life and money
i know music i
wish this tongue to touch the beguiling honey in the eyes
of a young man with hair ruffled
by the wind coming in at the train window
