Poetry

Poetry is the solidification of the ether element in a beautiful form because it helps in embellishing the spiritual practice. The desire to write poems for the divine lead me to create this digital altar as an offering. Enjoy!

Kali's mercy

In your lap of skulls I lay my head,

purring like a cat who has never known

anything but the pleasure of you.

      Your crystalline form in which I see my darkness

      and then you chain my demons to yourself like

      they’re your playmates, such is your glory and

       the intoxication of the wine of compassion that

       flows from your reddened eyes.

           This stray heart wants to entangle itself in your

            wild locks, swaying as your oceanic heart desires,

             Mother never let go of this vagabond from your grip,

               sweeten it until it beats to the rhythm of Shiv’s

                heart, the most serene place for your feet to

               rest upon.

Soma

Swami what offerings could I bring to you?
flowers and your breath are one and
all holy rivers are sanctified by your name
my Sundara, i know not of a thing of beauty more
beautiful than your face, adorned with ash and the

lustful Chandra glancing at you like a bride
perhaps i could give you every breath of mine
my Lord drenched in soma, i seek you out
like the dog seeks a master,
like the sunflower bent to the will of the sun,
like the moth in search of a flame,
this girl could give all of herself to you,
would you do the same?
