    RITUAL Sacred fires keep burning. The distant drums are getting nearer and even nearer. Shadows of the full-moon night have disappeared behind the palm trees. The virgin waits patiently, Gently pacing across the silver sands. The smell of scented Jasmines and sandalwood Fills the breeze with expectant ecstasy The God... » read this article

    THE SPIDER Pinning the cloud Shooting the clown down. Winning the vote Hooting the voices down. Politics is a tantra An art form of the powerful. Bullet to the brain Scavenging licker's drool.

      Timbuktu Take me to Timbuktu where I want to learn geometry. Relaxing in a mud hut where the hot winds turns into a cool breeze. Let me play the harmonica while measuring the world in a grain of sand. Flood my thoughts with Timbuktu I want to learn to... » read this article

    That's My Name! Battered, scattered Trapped and bomb-shattered Littered in camps like the scum of the earth. Every one talks about us And some who speak on our behalf, But no one cares to hear what we say... I stand my ground.  Shout, that's my name: Hi, I'm a Tamil... » read this article

    WEEPING MULTITUDES Beaten and bruised.  Broken bodies. Mangled by starvation.  Lack of vitality. Trapped or tripped.  Tricked with no choice. Human slaves.  Left to rot in misery.   O, what a Eucharist!   Every tree.  Shapes like a cross. One thing is free.  Torture and mis-trust. Heroes and villains. Keep... » read this article
