Special Edition: Radha Chakravarty

Radha Chakravarty
The Forest Watches

the watchful forest observes the passing train
and catches, through a fleeting window pane
a desperate face pressed against the glass, a hand
craving to touch the strangeness of the wilds
so close yet so infinitely out of reach
***


Eye of Fire

blazing sun 
raging storms
flaming forests 
collapsing mountains
drowning cities
rising tides—
we read the portents 
see the signs 
of divine fury manifest
as your third eye
eye of knowledge
eye of fire 
flies open in sacred ire
penetrating the deepest truth 
foreseeing the fatal future 
of our world spinning beyond control
poised to swiftly self-destruct
