Nikhil Parekh - Indian Poet


I consumed rice blended with fish curry, 


added pinches of salt to exit from realms of bland taste. 


 


i licked bare brick wall coated with sand plaster, 


devoured spicy remains of natural plastic paint. 


 


i trampled violently through fields of red pepper, 


sprayed finely crushed powder in the vicinity of shivering tongue. 


 


i swam at feverish pace in extreme salty solvent of the Caribbean sea, 


wiped myself dry to feel allergic patches of faded red. 


 


i pumped the air with a blend of perfume and green mustard seed, 


sat for patient hours basking in a film of spicy atmosphere. 


 


i rolled in clay mud sprinkled with pungent fertilizer, 


smeared my wheatish face with semicircular cakes of flavored mud. 


 


i sat on a cushion containing fermented yellow sour cream, 


smelt of obnoxious odour all throughout the passing day. 


 


i rubbed naked patches of my skin with hot repellant balms, 


danced all day with thunder storms of ecstasy echoing through my eardrum. 


 


i tore big chunks of orange ginger from tender branches of sapling, 


drenched myself with a tumbler full of aromatic water. 


 


i desired to breathe in an ambience of ravishing alligator perfume, 


swim in colossal ponds of suspended salt for the remaining tenure of my life.
