What's on my head? What's in my head?

A deserted highway dhaba, a night train journey, memory faded.
What's on my head, what's in my head?
A stone of destroyed civilization, a conversation with the dead.

Smoke filled vagina, an uncrumpled bed.
A southern polestar, a rejection lip-shaded.
What's on my head, what's in my head?

An essay on my epitaph, children unbred.
A blood droplet on grass strand, a goodbye never said.
What's on my head, what's in my head?

Citylights on the horizon, innocence of child's question unsaid.
A dream of touching stardust, a curse of immortality casted.
What's on my head, what's in my head?

Sand in the pocket, a wave in the night divided.
Search of meaning in a dictionary, fear of life lying ahead.
A blank moment before banging door, a tear for the victim unrelated.
What's on my head, what's in my head?

(a picture to come later...what's on my head, what's in my head?)
