7

...rounds I take
of the installed You,
and with each circle,
you strip off patches of mirth
stuck around my body
in circuitous layers
gathered over the 7 days of the week,
weakening knees
slyly shaking from seeping fatigue;
and you wrap around me
7 layers of bandage
that you will take off
next Saturday!

arziyaan saari main, chehre pe likh ke laaya hoon
tumse kya maangu main, tum khud hi samjah lo...
