Three Edges / KMG (PDF File)
Edge-1
Every Edge is an Opening
to the abysmal deep,
to the sky sans borders,
to the mind’s infinity.
Travel to the Edge,
Walk along the blade,
Edge into Edge’s edge,
And just fall off the edge.
Show me the Edge of the universe,
Show me the Edge of your tears,
show me the Edge of your smile.
Stay with me at the very Edge.

Edge-2
Every Edge is a suicide point
Sui-cide is self-annihilation-
killing oneself, one’s self.
Every religion promotes it.
Self-seeking is its opposite.
It’s egotism-
centering on the self.
Every religion frowns at it.
Seeking or frowning at,
Masking or manifesting,
It is still there-
The self..Aham
Unveil the Edge, the suicide point.
Let it jump into the gaping chasm
Let it scatter itself in the scary gorge.
and ‘find itself in the losing self’.
Edge-3
The Edge is the End.
Illuminate its Capital letters,
Reinvent the medieval art.
Embellish it in rainbow colours,
just as in children’s books
The Edge is End’s edge.
Approach it
with fear and trembling.
Venerate it
with delight and devotion.
Let every architect climb the roof,
to the edge of her master (?) work,
like a dentist onlay it with golden crowns
and mask the edgy Edge forever
Bring your lyre and harp,
Play your violin and veena.
make music to the very Edge,
and silence the edgy Edge forever.
Still It sticks out…
Deep into the cosmic naught
far beyond heady cosmetics,
only to be garnished over and over.
