Mother's Logic Poem by Upendra Majhi

Mother's Logic



Mother's logic I heard
that day when things went bad,
it was love enamoured with logic,
logic enamoured with love,
we, men, are of words,
one woman heart is million men words,
logic that emanates from motherhood
we have rescinded wilfully,
it is so scary,
it numbs us for hours,
woman, in her stammering lips
will utter logic, stories of
thousand and one tigers,
I felt like an ant
before my wife, as a mammoth
, of love, tolerance,
when story go so scary, horrendous,
one hundred vampires suck blood,
in the dark night,
I run away and woman sits in silenc e,
holding her child's hand
As I try to put the logic,
into one of seventy seven fallacies,
logic is built into
the ten month period, not extraneous to it,
not of any verbal incarnation,
not in separate preparation,
but as an integral partof it,
I resigned that moment,
from everything,
from every rule, from every logic,
and looked at the sky for,
for meaning and further zest in consternation,
woman was in deep sleepof utter peacableness,
when my mind was in absolute agitation
