ME AND MY WIFE

In the middle of the kitchen

a little piece of sugar candy 

crawled with brown ants 

and ants like my wife and me 

confusing each other, 

not sure 

who touches the sugar candy 

and who , in desperation

other's leg  .

my wife dropped it 

while cursing the first night of sexual pleasure .

and this side ,

me....ME.....

in a rented room 

with a compromised time 

consciously pretending  

reading a classic 

which my teacher suggested 

two years back 

and for two years 

i have been married .

 a single piece of doubt 

crowed with inimical thoughts  

sometimes confirming ,

sometimes rejecting .

i wished 

while scratching my groins 

she 

should not have dropped 

that piece of sugar candy
