On A Leaf Of Grass Poem by Ujjol Kamal

On A Leaf Of Grass



On a leaf of grass
A singly sunlit silvern sylvan symmetrical dreamdrenched danceclad
dewdropp descends to expire
Before the hoofed-dust twilight-lifted Sky shall invite the Moonmaiden
to ride her relapses of rhythmic orgasmic flights
Darkness ascends
Darkness dives
Deep in the depthless dungeon of dying dragonfly
On a leaf of grass all o' love life leap to ruminate the lust of
Mahomet-promised Paradise
Before I die
I would like to kiss you twice
Once by the Ganges
Twice by the tide of Volga, Mississippi, Missouri and Nile
1000 miles I have traveresed today
1000 more I shall tonite
The candles lit up my ceilings of disguise and desire
Empty bottles of Champaigne, gin and scotch lay blatant, bare and brine
The virgin quvers
The virgin is bribed
The Unicorn unbound
The Phoenix rise
Converting the virgin bleeding into a new realm of life
My satin is reddened
My pillows lilac with chaste pride
The virgin crues
Her temple of chastity unearthed a new religion, a new rite, a nubile
ray of light had just pounded, penetrated, pleased her
Like Paris Helen rifled, roped, riped
On a leaf of grass
A dew-dropp arrives
The glitter of moonlight mimics the merriments of paradise
My prayers-preached thirsty child
Unwanton to pray
Unwanton to fly
Awry arrays of white lights pierce my lamblike tears-torn eyes
I look up the stars-shunned rainy Sky
I cannot find the flimsy furrows of the Infinity intrinsic unwound
unwise
Alive she cried deep in the night
Feeling the pangs of pleasure betwix her thigs
Dead in the willows-cried eventide
The he-owlets cannot hear the she-owlets cries
The red-lipped-rhyme
Meets mates multiplies
Mating the manhood's warworn wife
Prayers beneath veil
Why all my prayers drip dropp die
Why I cannot pray anymore
Why I cannot smile or cry
Nor sleep
Nor rise
Why the priests get obscene on the young fresh meat
Why man and machines parade side by side
Why the earthlings are too busy to rip off and rape all o' Mother
Nature's pure prime pristine primedivel paces prize
Why we all headlong rush hide
Why material possessions define life
Why poets and prostitutes paint
Politicians and priests insane
Why there's a calm before the storm
And a calm after the storm
Same calm
But in differnt drums
On a leaf of grass
I baptise my eyes
On a leaf of grass
I conceal my kind
On a leaf of grass
I keep my deprivation, destruction, dedication, desolation, dreams,
desire
Drive
On a leaf if grass I bequeth my death and life
When I wake up to see and sigh
I see the virgin riding me to smile! ! !
