Always He Smiles Poem by Satheesan Rangorath

He sits on hood of serpents,
charming a cobra, off his thoughts.
Tune of” bean” creates celestial music,
As silvery snakes flash by spine.

From depth of nether lands,
off valley of time immemorial,
myths of love seeps in each cell.
Immortal beings arrive dancing.

Whole body receptive of snakes,
heaves to heavenly ambrosia.
They rock and shake to tunes,
creeping through sensual sinews.

In ecstatic convulsion he dances,
drumming louder a percussion.
Universe startles under his feet.
Every being revolve round in rhythm.

Day ends in lengthy hands of time.
Chimneys spit dark poisonous fumes.
Thunderbolts strike in distant skies.
Smile of god lit against cloudy canopy.
