ONE GLASS HOUSE---poem by Atul Vir Arora

ONE GLASS HOUSE---poem by Atul Vir Arora
******************************
Today
Morning
This play walked in,
Shining like glass
Scintillating
Brittle like beautiful layer of water,
Like a molten liquid
Just now the conflict would come to the fore
And would break with a thud
Breaking into smithreens.
Let it penetrate
Into the heels of feet.
Let it come out
With agony
With blood sprouting .
The skin of memories have hardened,
Come out from pores of capillaries
Come sing in rhthym
The title song of love affair
More delicate than glass itself.
But a song dry and sere like
Paper flowers
Emerge from within my psyche.
Some asleep,some awake,
Some broken
Glass houses.
