Lust: A Nail On Love Slide

One night I dreamt, a horrible dream I flew far with my unconscious stream Through desert and barren land, landed There on a mysterious place, it hounded At my utter surprise on the flat rock Moribund woman lied there breathless Seen and crossed, went ahead, lock Of my mind opened with a cry; ease less A high wind circled round me with laugh A wingless angel hovered over me, half Creature: half animal half woman, all side seen Thought some sorts of evil, I was so keen Scrambled far as to keep safe that I did Crossed the odorous pond, in a cave I hid There ran a lion like man from the cave Jumped into the dirty pond like a knave Very woman and the lion man were enjoying The swim and heaven fragrance was sliding I witnessed everything like a senseless statue Awoke on my bed I thought vice and virtue Sudden like lightening it came in my mind Without lust, man and woman can't find The love that we all talk about but hide Ephemeral Love is lust, a nail on love slide Aftab Alam
