Triolet Poem #39

I guess this is the waiting game, so I'll be stationed. By the tree, You will not find me chasing fame. I guess this is the waiting game; a subtle switch or stay the same. This is the time to wait and see, I guess this is the waiting game. So I'll be stationed by the tree.

"By The Tree", JEP

Maritime forest

We synchronize the children with our polyrhythmic afrobeat

Transfixed,

Our eyes as their anchor,

Ardent eyes burn darker,

our ancestors living through us, Yang feels it.

Yang’s presence speaks for itself.

A fire burning in the forest, arousing envy, most of us don’t burn bright anymore,

Yang a real man with a real life who knows pain, misery, anger but also joy, healing, control, wisdom, and balance. He raps and sings in any space, he’s not afraid of mortal things. He implants seeds into the mortal youth, they’ve lost their minds in a sad existence, they’ve never burned like Yang.

Life’s more beautiful when you can scat amongst the forest fires.

Only Yin truly understands his scat. Yang guards her from the cold breeze he can feel is approaching Yin twenty miles away.

Yin knows anger and defeat but sings to heal herself and the earth, to bring it back to its knees, birds singing, peace. She hums by the water. The earth bends to her will after years of suffering. The children can blossom under the cold day, some call her mother, some call her Yemaya, often forgetting where they come from.

Yin and Yang’s love burns,

Water and fire come alive

In this maritime forest,

They feed each other for generations,

They will feed you…

-Mariana

I’m sorry I never got the chance to make you a painting. I would paint your favorite thing, I’m also sorry I never found out what your favorite thing is.

Confessions

I want someone to love me

Because I can’t admit

That I won’t live the dream I’ve dreamed

Ever since I was a kid

I think I’d sell my liver

And parts of my own soul

If it meant you’d love me

I’d let you have it all

I want to be the one you pick

Even if you pick me last

But I’d die to be the one you pick

Without having to ask

And it gets worse as time goes on

I cant wait even describe

The way I wish that I’d be seen

By anyone with eyes

“Back On Neil Ave”

Sunday morning and I’m alone again,

Shuffling around my empty apartment.

I sit and think of another life of other potential,

Of grocery shopping together as it rains.

I push the cart even though it squeaks,

You read the list off in a singsong voice.

You talk about making candied jalapeños,

I groan and wonder aloud how that’ll taste.

Oh but you’re my honey hearted man you say,

You laugh so softly and I smile slowly.

In this life we have never been cruel,

And I went to therapy early and got sober.

In this life we never said anything terrible,

And on this morning I’m not alone.

THE FEAR WE ALL HAVE

Sometimes we are too hard on ourselves

Or let's say insecure,

We are countless miles away

From believing we are human

At the end of the day,

We could be fine, we're not

Our words are put in secret, unexplored shelves

We know that healing can be difficult

If we keep coaxing silence into ourselves.

But our inner self may not allow us

To have a space of our own,

Maybe since our older times and younger days used to feel better,

Than now, when we're all grown.

Our cup of tea may have felt lukewarm,

A sip of our orange juice may have felt cold,

We may be wondering what to do anymore

It might feel like we're quickly getting old!

I wish we could still tell ourselves to watch around

And look how worse others are

Some are sick, tired and risking lives,

While some are trapped in profound scars.

Some may be warriors of some deadly disease

Whose lives were simple and plain,

But after the monster came unannounced

They had to bear with illness and pain.

Unlike the minor scars of cuts and wounds,

That would make us howl and scream,

Some may be the agony of the valiant soldiers

Whose hearts are scarred with unfulfilled dreams!

-Ritisha Gupta

Generated

Generated by you

these parts stayed too long

and I’m going to the moon.

I left with too many white lies.

It’s over.

Your face tells it all;

about last night and

about your lips.

My mind and my space went all in it.

Spirited away, I felt the stars.

Oh, I’m not an actor but I’ll be

anyone you want me to be.

In the Park

My Father smiles,

runs across the park,

lifts me up

and twirls me around.

I hold on tight

as the curls swing

away from my face.

Look, he says,

pointing to the crescent moon—

I made that for you.

Pg 92 of my poetry book The Moon Taught Me 🌙
