THE HANGMAN (A poem)
The Hangman
a poem
by Aman Mittal
By the roots of his hair Some God got hold of him Abducted by His Strength Felt like a prophet of a desert. Nights are like snapshots Out of sight Like a lizard’s eyelid. And the bald white days Shade away Behind the oaks. While being pinned on a tree The man ask god If you were me, What would you do? The god replies If I were you, I would do what you did.
By the roots of his hair
Some God got hold of him
Abducted by His Strength
Felt like a prophet of a desert.
Nights are like snapshots
Out of sight
Like a lizard’s eyelid.
And the bald white days
Shade away
Behind the oaks.
While being pinned on a tree
The man ask god
If you were me, What would you do?
The god replies
If I were you, I would do what you did.
