Exam

Exam

white paper
Inkless pen
The clock on the wall
Strikes  in the heart
Brain goes blank
Eyes lose sight
walls of blank…
Built up

White ideas hover
Over on
The  white walls
Reason by the blank brain
See by the blank eyes
Written…
On the white paper
With inkless pen

Leaving the room
Bashed like Dickinson’s bird
Scars and fears  roam
Past ghosts daunt the present
The past’s doors wide open
Wornout dreams fall apart
Past and present
Wear the same dress
Now and then change place
Exchange roles
Play an amorphous tone
On the cords of my heart
On the strings of my nerves
While…
Future chuckles and shuts its door.
