Microcosm by Gopal Lahiri

Like a pebble skimming across a glacier

a tone setting prophecy and harbinger.

Like a pair of forlorn eyebrows

some mention of its very first breath.

Like stay back and think of turmoil

an end and a beginning.

Like a whisper heard in the last tram

a tale written in unrhymed cantos.

Like seven second snapshot of things

with too many paralyzed half-dreams.

Like keeping silent in this bleeding night

and amongst a sweating multitude.

All roll into one, a life in microcosm

in the atmosphere of a razing inferno.
