Poems by Leena Sharma
A Conversation
My desire was the need to belong,
A blind potter knowing I am blind
And not that I make perfect lamps
She came up and said, “And maybe the next time
When romance finds you
You’ll know why
It was
So important to stand
Alone for now”.
He replied, “White things
Are hard because they catch people’s dark eyes.
The lady dances in the form of
A Prahar, a design so complex
“What are you doing?
Don’t do this.
Desperation leads to Destruction.”
“And if it inspires you
Do it right away.
