My prehistoric godown
Is filled with
Innumerable sculptures
Uncountable geometric people
A galloping stallion
With a flame in its mouth
Around the bank of a plane circle
Bones of sailors in the glittering sand
Wrecked ships - graph of moonlight
Sleeping together
A bird
Its wings chopped off
The burning form of hunger
Rectangular
Erect
Quadrangle
Triangle
Three stone animals
Blind deaf dumb
Devi Sakambhari in Abhay Mudra
Fight until death between two sketches
Under a blood stained violin
A hunched statue studying history
Insane collage of a poet
In tattered clothes
An abstract scream
Vaporous
Cold
Flattened
Flaming
Race of hooves of a herd of wild horses
The angry shepherd
With a flock of sheep
A town
Burnt to ashes
Shadow of an owl flying away
Etc.
I am
In this museum
Cared and maintained by me
Shall remain as the guard of eternity
At my soul's insistence
