Orissa Super Cyclone

Pronab Kumar Majumdar

The dead-man’s face
A demonstration of helplessness
The corpse has really no name –
­Nature is never apologetic
A dead man never seeks mercy
Nor does he retaliate.
A wild petal lying on the eyelid
Don’t remove it
It will give the corpse a vision
of its transmigration.

Breathing is life
A life lives on air
When an elephant turns rogue
It only destroys everything
Coming its way
Super Cyclone is million of herds of rogues
Crashing eyelessly ruthlessly
Humanity is yet so easy prey ­
Air, the elixir of life
Is enraged wild killer sometimes.
