The Queen Speaks
All yours twice over


The Queen Speaks

Thank you so much
for walking
into my life
just like that

On an even tenth day of the
third month of the year
to wish me luck,
which as is usual with me
i brushed aside

But the first day
we sat across
was on a date -
my friend's birthady date
in the Rumi month
of February

And still nothing
till it was the
morning of the
seventeenth day
of the fierce month
of March

and it was just
one thing after another
with -Let the game begin..
query
on Thursday


Some day it was -the twentieth
but the first game was on the 29th of the
Ides of march.

But the finale was on the seventh day
of the fourth month
with presentations done and dusted
with the words- First Class.

But what i hold dear and the day
which made all the difference is not
when i was held in time
and seen across the space
but the day when you worked with me
on my work
pushing me to the places, i rarely venture on my own
out of the wilderness
into the frontiers of staging a performance
a well prepared
a well rehearsed one.

And i must tell you this
The sojourn, which began with noticing black
on a port
ended with twining in black when it mattered
with cherry on top or a red of hearts
on a scarf i wore
just like that
on the seventeenth of Aries.
