poem#30
My love
(in anachronistic romance),
I am writing a poem in your name.
You will not like what I write
or may be you will like it a
little bit now,
but you will surely like it a great deal less
as you read.
But I know you will read!

PAUSE

If you are reading
I presume you are merely being kind
to a poet (though you never knew what one was)
If you are reading still
I presume I should praise your patience (which I had not seen earlier)
If you are reading yet still
I presume,( though late),  you are trying to be a connoisseur of art these days
If your are reading even now
I presume your are merely inquisitive (about what I can write after we have parted ways)
If you are reading even this line
I presume you have nothing else to do
and are submerged in my chaep flatterey
spitted by my 500 paisa pen
as I scribble your name.
You have nothing to do.
Please find something to do!
