Dr. Rani Mathew Biography

Be in maternity robe or ball gown
be in chat room or on bridal bed
love that denies breathing space
blooms only to wither away.
...

At his wheel, squat
the aged potter
Withered and scraggy
Mixing clay and sweat.
...

Man and Woman
Man and woman
Make up a binary
He needs space
...

When marked man and wife
I'm lost in him, they cry.
But this invisibility, I celebrate
That kills but rejuvenates.
...

In that tiny coffin she lay asleep
Wreathed in flowers red and white.
Her cheek and chin far fairer.
An angel dressed up for the fair.
