The Best Poem Of maria shafi

Fragmented Thoughts!

..In the deep ecstasy
words fragment-
fall apart
feelings bereft countenance
life seize options
residual
the sour drink' of life or Venom....

I am not Socrates
who drank venom
and became immortal
Nor am I like Van Gogh
who segment his ear
for his belovd
and shot himself in starry nights...!

I m just an artist who
potray life
in colorz
unfathomable...
absorbing the sour drink
like the swèetness
of soul..

I am a poet
who drench the paper
with abstract wierd
essence of language
creating chaos in soul....

I am a human

who will survive

inspite of all self

created complexities...

remoulding and recasting

unknotting the tangles....

till they entangle my essence

back...and shrink me

in my complexities again.....
