Short Credulous Poems

And Oh, how credulous'
     A mother must be
With all that devotion
             Pure love
And responsibility
       The everlasting
Queen of Queens'
A pageant with in my
       Heart,
And with the strength
         Of God,
You are my only heart

                 GF...

Tears full of brine,
I bid her adieu,
I knew all along,
That she will never be mine,
She told me so several times,
I was credulous,
Till she left me far behind,
Tears dripped and dripped,
Till I was drained dry,
And could no longer,
Feel , breathe or whine,
After all she was my "soul"....

A silver green beetle in the palm of your hand
click clacking click clacking
it's credulous wings
to the metal bent rhythm of flying
A string of invisible gravity spinning
impossibly lifts him right into the blue
We stand there and marvel alone in his echoes
and tap out a rhythm of feet on the move......

Standing 
at 
the 
edge 
of 
a 
pond
A 
stork 
used 
to 
drink 
water
With 
some 
cotton 
in 
his 
beak
To 
avoid 
killing 
aquatic 
creature.

The 
credulous 
insects 
and 
worms
Believed 
him 
to 
be 
a 
pious 
one
And 
when 
they 
went 
near 
him
He 
devoured 
them 
one 
by 
one....

Designers of Dissidence



Scandalous slubberdegullions
Credulous crepehangers
Haughty harridans
Laudable loblollies
Enigmatic evildoers
Patronizing poltroons
Problematic paramours
Slanderous spirits

Pretending to be the pure an innocent,

          a viper the mask hides. 

In the absence of those to defending themselves,

          the more vigorously it swears.

Those that show too credulous favor to listen,

           instead of being careful, to insist on sound validation.

No elixir or spell can cure, 

          only truly depends on first loving themselves.

How pitiful of me
To carry your heart
In my own
When I know it beats
A somber tone

How credulous of you
To speak to heavens
So lovingly about us
Urging for my return

As footsteps we heard
Walked past each other

And not a hint of love
Exchanged a look

Perhaps it's best 
How clueless we are--
Unprepared to mend
Two broken hearts

Grandmother By Saiful Haq:
Skinny Skin Bloomed with Wrinkles,
Overshadowing her dimples,
Staring with Aghast Eyes,
Expressing herself in a fatuous Noise.

Credulous to lavish promises,
Melodramatic to laziness,
Pertinacious in her religious beliefs ,
Punctiliously attending her colleagues.

Torpidly trekking with a wooden stick,
Very Prone to being sick,
Showering her blessings diligently,
Is the patriotic head of Our family....

An advent of adventure
signs soon steal away 
in moonlit eyes of jade

unclothed, tongues bathed
with wounds licks

determined
and
credulous

legs, smooth, 
stems of silk 
swaying 
the scent of sex
seduction of the night

the day 
the night
the day

don't ever run away
don't ever run away

from a welcomed hand

uncircumnavigated
blue sky receptions
in a newborn port of call

I heed your call
I heed your call
...

Twenty six today, I saw
the luminous silver moon
make it's way through 
the familiar sky that 
bends above my head.

Each day I grew enthusiastic 
and more credulous about
what lies ahead;
Waiting and hoping to remain
content with the one wish
granted.

And thereupon, a shooting star
In it's enthralling spectacle
A fallen seraphim with 
broken wings crowding
my innocence upon
that fading star

Making a wish
To blow it away
into smouldering incense
of a new age....
