some feeble tunes the ears catch <br />hushed dialogues overheard <br />in the shadows a lighted patch <br />windborne caught one word <br /> <br />you they haunt daylong chase <br />nibble your thoughts and tease <br />not revealed from greyish haze <br />yet keep your mind in leash! <br /> <br />what are they you wonder aloud <br />shadows in wispy outline <br />all those naggers hidden in shroud <br />you feel but can't define <br /> <br />day and night they gnaw inside <br />a lump of mass sans sense <br />drag you low climb you tide <br />fly you unseen distance! <br /> <br />with them within life you roam <br />spelled in all you do <br />why your mind they make their home <br />you haven't the slightest clue <br /> <br />only a few you can hold in hands <br />purge with the flows of ink <br />most them die stillborn strands <br />find a depth to quietly sink!<br /><br />Pradip Chattopadhyay<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/fragments-of-poetry/
