A ROOM OF ONE’S OWN
What
privilege do doors provide
If we can’t
fasten them?
A personal
cabin
With well
furnished walls and
Ajar doors
Can easily
invite intruders.
A poet’s privacy is often vulnerable.
Process of
writing a poem
Is as painful
as
Conceiving an
illegitimate child.
When the
words cloud
At the tip of
the nib,
I gain a
power- extra sensory…
As a theyyam*
performs
Over flames
of fire-
For the
instance,
I forget my
risks after publication;
I count my
injuries
Along
applauses
When people
peep at
My unfinished
drafts,
I feel my
nudity
Being exposed
to lustful eyes…!

Reema has fine language skills and her expressions really communicate .
I liked her writing.
Unlike many fake lady-idols. She seems sincere and genuine. VIJAYALAKSHMI
