jade.
varun

who became
 1
that sunken skeleton
 2
of a ship that sailed
 3
those decades ago?
 4
 
 
  too awry to see
 5
  orange carnations
 6
  flowering on crests
 7
  of crystal waves,
 8
 
 
  bathed in a new beach
 9
  with melancholy
 10
  always within reach,
 11
  indignant enough
 12
 
 
  to fight reflections
 13
  poignant to see
 14
  everything
 15
  on the arabian's bed.
 16
 
 
what became
 17
of the sails cradling
 18
zest, raging
 19
through every storm?
 20
 
 
why do they lie
 21
lead-like, beneath
 22
shadows of clouds
 23
in passing. deep
 24
 
 
within blurry water
 25
once blue and green.
 26
  when did they know
 27
  the meaning
 28
 
 
  of a dead dream?
 29
