IN THE GARDEN OF GETHSEMANE

Satish, The vastness of tragedy in this day and age whether manmade or natures wrath, it always leaves a void and numbness! An event that still needs to be told, (Kanewas)-matthew Bill

HEMLET BY CHOICE

Satish, "...No hope of breeze It is hot inside, the spirit burning...", you take the reader into your emotions as we contemplate those who endure the times of war and suffering. The mind or how we would love to repress some of our past. Yet, in reliving it, you have opened our minds to the realities of war and holocaust that we might understand the past, so as to work very hard at a better future. Thank you.- Marcia Schechinger

RETURN OF THE POET

I enjoyed reading your creative poetry today As I always do Satish. Have a wonderful day and may you find even more inspiration to write as the day goes by. Love- Carol Brown

This is either a reference to some horrific incident I have no knowledge of, or is just plain surreal, either way it made me think more than most, interesting read.- Nick Bagnall

STRANGERS IN SLEEP

The god is ailing with multiple failures. love this line! i will rate this 10+ , well-penned- Sheldon Allen Saluta


Man, are you responsible for this bloodbath... Simply great. Yes, "A mass grave was being dug in the distant woods." Recent history perhaps speaks this way. Good poem and great.- Pranab k chakraborty

Teasing

I am beginning to like this rich verse that would/ should to make the reader draw his/her own interpretation...maybe the title is apt. Kudos Satish. All for the rare expressions those in fact highlight a special sense and meaning. I hazard a guess here for a girl in distress in the harem and being emaciated. But I don’t know. Thanks Narasimha for your call. Lastly I believe much of Verma’s wonderful poetry has to be read to reflect. Kudos.- Seshu Chamarty, Hyderabad   

---

Satish Verma Sir, The above poem as well as your other poems are rich in metaphor and have a wonderful rhythm.  But the meaning eludes me, probably because I am too dense to grasp anything as subtle as what you write.   "clad in wounded memories" is a refreshingly original expression, as also"unpraised thorns" of the black rose.   But what  would be the meaning of "forest of hands" in the given context?

In regard to the line"the fugitive wind shuts the smart tears"  the tears may refer to the tears in the eye caused by the pain of the thorns or anguish metaphorically.   Or does it refer to the tears  in the skin caused by the "unpraised thorns". 

It is sad to see that a beautiful poem like this goes unexplained.   I shall be grateful to learn from some one  out there who certainly could help.- Narasimha Sarma Rachakonda, Visakhapatnam

The fugitive wind shuts the smart tears. An awesome expression i will borrow 'fugitive wind' from you. Regards,- Shigufta Hena Uzma, Patna

SELF- ANNIHILATION

Satish "...if I were poaching on death, that was unintentional...My ashes are not meant for praise They are to be strewn around on hills..." where the flowers might grow. And that they should be, your insight to the visions of war are a tribute to the helpless man/woman/child who was caught in the "barbed" fencing due to politics and religion. May all the innocent who perished due to war and the holocaust find their way into your garden, that we might know the beauty we should have seen on earth. Thank you Satish.- Marcia Schechinger

Satish the shadows in the mind of destruction and war everpresent in the fear of another Holocaust. The "guest" has the message, let us stop wars, earths usage, and insanity in our leadership today.

RELIGION

Disparted phrasage spoils a cornucopia of majestic imagescape-(IMO), of course. Your right hemisphere is a paraxysmal engine of effulgence....Wish you would at least make the attempt to better organise your thought-train, as opposed to creating solely off a peripatetic course of inspiral idiopathicism....-Frank James Ryan,Jr./FjR

Satish with descriptive feelings and personal sights of war, you are the instructed of reality, the true colors of war, the haunted spirit who creates memories daily that one day all might seek peace. "...Non-violence a forgotten word...", let us hope not. Thank you.- Marcia Schechinger

Hawthorne lamps with their rich, feminine curves and contour do challenge the amorous Moon or the esoteric Black Rose for impact supremacy in a poem so Dark and deep-dished as this work be....I liked this....-Frank James Ryan,Jr./FjR

ETERNITY

Satish a beautiful expression of emotions for the lose of innocence of home and country. "...My home...where dark squints at the moon", the ending explains the beginning and why the "Pearl - drops...". As always for me, your poems are completely moving.

SYMPHONY

Thanks for sharing!- Westly Shaw, USA


That- WAS GOOD STUFF, man. "Only the passer - by was hit not the bulldozer which comes from the palace. " Does this mean that the one impacted was the normal man, not the one born with the silver spoon? Because if that is what it meant, then your metaphor's are brilliant.- Remya Raj, INDIA


http://www.voicesnet.org

TENDER RAGE

Once again, Satish, though each stanza owns its own projective merit....the piece as a "whole" fails to connect the dots of any defining storyline. The work lacks a nexus that enables your audience to establish a course that they can follow, relate to & be captured by. This is NOT to say that the work holds no substanceful value....for based on imagescape alone, one must recognise & acknowledge your extreme largess of creating grandeur image/pictorial....If i could make a suggestion, that you number your stanzas when you opt to pen in the style exhibited above. In doing so, you have told your Readership up-front that each line-group or stanza are seperate trains of thought, and ergo....should be read as if seperate works.....-Frank James Ryan,Jr./FjR

How sad that when a life is stilled inside a womb - he or she has no chance to enter this world. Satish, you have, in your special way, given us something to think about.- Jacinta Ramayah, MALAYSIA

DAMNED

Better to be able to ask the right questions -- than to have the right answers to the wrong questions. The answers, as always, depend on the resource you approach to beg sense -- cognitive, spiritual and emotional --from the context you find yourself embedded within. Nice job with your questions. -Tristan

LACERATIONS

Satish
"Hidden Hate" powerful words. At first I thought of nations passing down hate and violence against their neighbor. Then I thought of the more personal hate that I should have but deny that for others which has eaten away at my soul because I have reserved such hate for myself only. "Laceration" can heal with time those wounds will leave only a slightly discolored scars. A meaningful write.-Tina

THE DEAD DREAM

Vivid words, this poem seems magical and mythical and indeed quite dreamy. I imagine myself floating on serine waters drift into nothingness.- Tina

WANDERER

Hello Satish, Your piece was a very difficult read in relation to exact meaning, though the suffering is quite raw within your words. I see visions of the aftermath of Bhopal, "the suffering continues so does the struggle" (Words from the memorial site). With the horrendous death toll and continuing sickness. The survivors not able to take their place, even shunned by a burgeoning society who wish to move on from the tragedy. Shades of Chernobyl, and the genocide perpetrated in the name of war. "buried under the debris of unholy secrets" Our own guilt "wanders" aimlessly "beneath the night sky". Your words jab our conscience into an acknowledgement of 'mans inhumanity to man' Thank you Satish for this great work. God Bless, Richard- Richard Gildea, UK


Satish "...Can you handle the die-off of the whole truth?...", it is difficult. Your revelations of human debris held in concentration camps are words that might be difficult for those of us who wish to be butterflies, and yet we must know the truth of war and the unsightly reality of the struggles of people. If we want peace, we must know the past so as to prepare and be strong that our children might have a better future. With your words, I bow before all those who suffered and pray that they might forgive earth and the pain it showed them. Thank you for your continuous contribution, while you relive the pain, so as we might one day have peace in this world. Thank you.- Marcia Schechinger, USA
