The Gap For A Gallop Poem by Pranab K Chakraborty

nowhere to meet the stream straight and ready to drink
nowhere man to stretch hands for people who are shifting
elaborate address from dignity to dynasty

nowhere the resemblance to locate an official diagram
eligible for love and lunacy
only a drunk disturbs the whole sky to anchor the canoe
which not to sail but to build a dream to float through
nothingness

nowhere the gap I observed whole this journey to fetch
a night hunt rather a leap to leave the soil and sand
fought long a battle within with me and no me
