Forever begins
with
heart-stop,
a
virginal rebirthing
and
umbilical dissolve
that
separates and erases
all
illusion
of
heart, touch and things mis
named.
Forever
never ends, though;
it
just gets lost in the
Alzheimeic
plains
of
reason and other encounters
The
first love is also the last, I think.

so true and beautiful.
Hey Malinda, you can fool some people sometimes, but not everybody all the time.
ReplyDeleteYour so-called "elegant" poetry CANNOT cover the fact that you were a Mahinda Rajapaksa stooge. We all saw saw how you went to the supermarket (කඩේ) for the dictator මැදමුලන ගන් කබරයා before Jan 8.
Now you are slowly trying slither your way into යහපාලනය. We will not be fooled Malinda.
What is your true feelings towards යහපාලනය?? Is it better or worse than your dictator Maraa's පවුල් පාලනය?
You are a two-faced snake in the grass.
I cannot cure you of your ignorance. Yahapaalanaya? How about some PAALANAYA for a change....yaha or otherwise? :)
ReplyDeleteI fully agree with the definition 'two-faced snake in the grass'. It should be qualified as 'multi-faced snake'. Under your so called poetic finesse lies a hypocrite like none! You are full of venom nothing else- politically and otherwise--
ReplyDeleteNone more venomous than one who hides behind a mask. Right?
