trends, trinities
i
sun, moon, water
sun’s light is
best reflected in
placid water. jealous,
ardent moon, ever
derivative, prowls for and
pulls us, mere
drops, into
fumbly tides
just to disturb and
shatter into
glistening everywhereshards
the image of the day.

ii
mine, yours, no one’s
we have
not seen it
before; we have
not yet sat
together,
calm, not
speaking;
have only
beaten mercilessly against beach and
one another,
either trying to
tear apart gentle
earth,
or fighting to leave in the
dust
some impression that
fades
as soon as the
next wave sees and
disagrees.
***
iii
a cord of three strands
only a photon
remains in me, when two
together, i and
you
would a beam make;
and three? i dare not even dream, a
picture
begin
to form; a clear,
clear,
reflection.

“No, I don’t miss you… Not in a way that one is missed.
But I think of you.
Sometimes.
In the way that one might think of the summer sunshine
On a winter night…”
― Sreesha Divakaran, Those Imperfect Strokes
