A focus on moments…

…  Shaj Mathew: Poetry as Life, Life as Poetry - Guernica / A Magazine of Art & Politics. (Hat tip, Rus Bowden.)




Life is perhaps
a long street through which a woman
   holding a basket passes every day.
Life is perhaps
a rope with which a man
   hangs himself from a branch.
Life is perhaps a child returning home from school.
Life is perhaps lighting up a cigarette
   in the narcotic repose
      between two love-makings
