The Ladder Poem by Binayakumar Mohanty

The Ladder



Me too
with a passion to fly
above the sun
with an emotion
to dive deep down
the ocean
somewhere needed
a ladder.

Every step for a resilience
from agony of helplessness.

Who would come to help
who would spread her lap!

Had I shout
for a fall from the steps
who would help me?
if not the ladder.

Today when I unveil
the mystery of
mounting the height of dignity
at the summit of the ladder,
there they are ready to
throw me to nadir.

Me too
not ready
not ready at all.



who would take me to faith?
