On certain
moonlit nights-
I give my words,
my thoughts,
a break-
all go
while I am awash
with dappled darkness-
my soul attuned
to milky night
with an ear
catching the note
of Raga Abhogi*
birthing from the Sitar
inundating me in bliss.
*A raga or ragini is akin to a melodic mode in Indian classical music. Raga Abhogi is a night raga sung or played in early night.
