Senryu Collection Poem by Sathya Narayana
Senryu Collection
On August fifteenth
He got married
Lost independence
On January twenty sixth
He signed with tears
His wife’s constitution
(August fifteenth is the Indian Independence day and January twenty sixth, Indian Republic day from which date the Indian constitution came into force)
God shaped faces
Man preferred
Masks
My office is there
Amidst herbs, shrubs, trees and cuckoos
My music school too
“Oho”, shouted a haiku poet
“Oho”, echoed the mountains
He grumbled “Anthropomorphism”
A poet's wife
his first audience
first victim
rolling-pin...
useful to roll rotis and
control husbands
amnesia patient
used to go to neighbour’s house
even after treatment
night long cruise
in trance ship via dream islands
till dawn of rality
Overloaded bus
Moves like a pregnant woman
Abortion feared
Road rollers on move
Birds and farmers search
For new homes
In concrete jungles
Cows feed on
Wall posters
A hobo sleeping
Under leaky sky dome
Season-proof
Small rain
Then Sun and a rainbow
Dash farmers’ hopes
