Familiarity (Free verse) by Rumidi
You used to come to me
In infinitesimal measures
Only one mystery at a time
- I considered you to be abysmal.
Today, you have crossed the threshold
Bringing all your excavations
Your discoveries and creations
Your revivals and disintegrations
- You have grown smaller than yourself.
During some star-lit serenading
Or moon-lit poetry rendition,
During some churning of life's chores,
Counting of familiar ecstasies
Or nightmares,
Amidst contrived walls of contentment
Contrition or conversion
-We have grown accustomed
To the realisation of dreams.
