Good Day! Poem by Binayakumar Mohanty

I'm feeling
not well within
heart and head
aching unstopped.

I expected you
in the last train
But, the schedule cancelled.

I'm feeling
not well within.

I expected
the night
with the angel
in a paradise
But,
I'd to sleep
with the monster
in the cactus garden
spiny wind blowing
all around.

I'm feeling
not well
within.

Me,
upset
at work place
upset
at a free ride
upset
at the dining
upset even
at the movie romantic.

The skilled tailor
with no blurred pupil
is failed
every time
passing through the needle
the thread of target
gets wounded.

I'm feeling
not well
within.

I expected
my son to
top the tournament
bagging the gold
But,
was out badly
in a scandal.

I expected
to be in north
But,
was doomed to south.

I expected
a spring
with singing colors
But, it was
a scorching April
the cruelest ever.

I expected
a good day
But,
It was a nightmare
threatening me all night.

I'm feeling
not well
within
the heart and head
aching unstopped.
