He

- A.Thiagarajan


At first, I didn't see him coming
In fact even now
I don't simply know how he came-
he says he was there in school
in the same class
got the same marks as me-
he was behind when dad screamed
for the poor marks
he flew
and yet came back, I think
ate from my meals
from my films
from my girls-
says he was
the book I read
the girl who saw mine first
the smoke from my dad's
cigar which I stole
to the consternation of my mom
and smoked
in the toilet at the fartheset end
of my house-
he dressed
went to office
and worked sometimes-
he was my headache
that's what he says
and
my trumpet
which I secretly
admire and abhor-
he does perform
the amavasya tharpan
and says will wear my shirt
until he
nolonger is
and when
I no longer
am
