Incomplete Making

By: Satish Verma

INCOMPLETE MAKING

Started forgetting the names
No coming,
becoming
standing on the street
watching the feelings evaporate.

No counting
measuring was of any use.
Doing nothing was a bliss when something went amiss
when head was high
and legs were weak
where to go
where to sleep.

When did you lose,
when did you win ?
When were you saint,
when did you sin ?

Minute to minute
you lived in time
grain to grain
you had no crime.

The making was still incomplete,
half was the moon in mid stream.
