Riff On Gajanan Mishra's The Poet In Decline

Rating: 5.0


I am dying every minute
My soul is slipping away
I cannot stop life’s progression
I cannot halt my own decay;

My poetry lays in cartons
Stacked in boxes in my room
My history of failed loving
Dusty echoes in my doom;

My muscles grow more rigid
Self conscious of the pain
I fear the loss of movement
Yet how I’ve moved in vain
