An evocative poem by Lily. She talks of fears here.
Fears perched like petrified flies on a jaggery heap
Fears like the whirlpool
In a muddy monsoon puddle
Choking thrashing Mephistopheles like fears
Chilling icicles of protruding
Needle sharp fears
Hanging like nooses from prison ceilings 
Soul crushing bone shattering
Hammers of fears
Robbing dawn of its peachy bloom
Stamping on petals of
The dusky rose
Halting streams that gurgle
on high
Gagging the nightingale’s
Mellifluous chant
Stealing the thunder from
The lightning struck sky
Fears that feast on my 
Gullible soul
Fears that pole vault like
Sergey Bubka
Striding the universe of
My sanctum sanctorum
You my fears are only fears
And I, my dear, fear no fears!
