Aphorisms from The Border / Elancharan Gunasekaran

voices in the wind stand where you are and speak your name

*

one hand gives enslaved to karma the other hand receives

*

lightning lips split

*

where no man has gone before the afterlife and lived to tell his tale

*

arrogant bulldozer showing off its prize kill mauled banyan tree

*

I’ll tell you how to run a country you can start by tearing down your walls

*

 through the lens scratched crescent moon cat-play with Leo

*

stealthily unlocked front door girls’ night smell of booze and sex

*

stare-off between crow and beggar leftovers grew wings

*

in our “normal” world a mad man sits calmly reading a book
