Still More to Love and Beloved--By Pijush Kanti Deb--India

Still More to Love and Beloved

A good man’s sound slumber
allows as usual
some of his dormant imps-
quite opportunists and devastating,
to wake up and try another round
to climb the stairs up
leading to his luminous roof- a para-paradise,
he composed and collocated with great care
arranging a remix of
the feathery songs and the colorful fragrances,
with a devilish purpose of trampling
the soft goodness of the good man down
forgetting his sensitive sub-consciousness
resulting in
one sided win of the good over the bad
when the climbing imps are apprehended,
pulled down and sent back
to their dark den
by the ever-wakeful good man
assuming still more to love and be loved.
