I am tired, aged and my arteries too....


I am tired, aged
and my arteries too....


i do not know
I am tired, aged
and my arteries too

this is the second time
Cardiologist is keen
and doing his or her experiments

another bypass surgery
i do not know
my heart’s arteries
will endure this time

this time
doctor is an alien
i do not know,
from where he or she
uncertainty is every where

an invisible doctor
conducting the surgery
with the help of
Microsoft vista or XP
his or her scissors are not visible
i do not know
whether he or she has
the instruments with him or her

full of shadows
mourning are every where
I do not know
I am weeping or not
changes are inevitable
let me pray my last
prayer to almighty
“This time may not give
Protection to my arteries”

I do not want to lend
My heart again
For another by pass surgery
I am tired, aged
and my arteries too
