[hometext] => The poem treats of the theme of love not realised.
[bodytext] => Priya's long hair flows behind her and she goes into conniptions in the wayward rains of September whirling her striped umbrella on the river bridge in a rare show of stupor. She does not respond to base stimuli in her present state; poking fun of others she marvels at the conundrum of how so long a bridge could be built across the Mahanadi when the sea water sent shivers down the river bed. Priya's nose glistens in the dim hazy light seen through the rain - a Grecian bridge abruptly runs downwards to form nostrils. Her eyes seek to acquire binocular vision for an augmented depth perception; but what she forgets in the frenzy of drive is her unfazed poltroon. This is the first time in a thousand years she touched a man who was waking from his primordial slumber of womanlessness. Priya looks at a band of thunderstorms on a weather radar taking a bite off dark chocolate and now she knows her man is no more a shadow she has chased so long.
