Nail the Enigma...Ei8!

In this enduring series of poetic enigma...here is the 8th random piece of mind!

Is this the end of it all...without the start?
Are there no words for me...with that silence?
Do I have to try your patience...with violence
Or does it take the rains to wipe your tears away?


Describe the picture with any parallel story on this one and let me know your views...till the next cut is delivered...

Nail the Enigma...Se7en!

After a short passage of time, here is another slight return to form...see if you can crack this one!

A barren desert with circling flames
The nomadic heart that beats a lone rhythm

An empty paper with a story to tell

A temple of gods, with no priest to bell...


See if you can stretch your imagination on this one and let me know if you could nail this enigma!

Till the next cut is delivered, happy reading and happy decoding...

Nail the Enigma - Si6

A new decade has arrived and so has this Darkknight's era of poetry!

After resounding responses to the previous series, I have decided to extend this section beyond testing waters...so here comes...Nail the Enigma...Si6! Lets see if you can unlock the sixth mystery!

Failing balance spilling me in every direction,
A splitting head like a friction set fire
A rampaging river from the temples above,
Rising mercury signaling the need for love.

See if you can rattle this one up and let me know what you think...no restrictions, no boundaries!

Nail the Enigma V

Here is the last enigma of the decade...not that this would be the end of it all! Hope you can crack this one...Nail the Enigma V

A thousand words with the nod of the head
A single meaning with the dip of the eye

An unexplainable mystified emotion of Eve

The epic of love shrunk in one quick moment


As simple but powerful as it can get.
Make sure you stretch your imagination and see what you can discover in these lines...the closer you get, the better it is...but you are most welcome with extremes!

Till the next cut is delivered...happy reading!

Nail the Enigma - II

In my continuing effort to cut down on the length of prose and a comeback to poetry, here is the second edition of Nail the Enigma...

The rules are simple...figure out the theme / concept / meaning / subject / situation etc. So, here we go...

Sanity broken by a murderous tangent
Contoured map with endless routes
Wrinkled rubber of age-old routine
Tanned tales and coloured rules

Nail this enigma and pin your comments to see who gets the closest to what the lines actually mean. Till the next cut is delivered...

Nail the Enigma...

After close to a year of the 'Random Question' Series, I decided to build a sort of a comeback scene to my roots (guess I ran out of subjective or thematic matters temporarily). To be honest, its been more than a long break from writing poetry and I felt the best way to slowly comeback to what I did best once upon a time is this interesting section that I have titled - Nail the Enigma. This is a different way of approaching the art and is in no way connected to Mr. Langdon or Mr. Brown.

The task is simple...I pen a few lines based on a theme / subject / scene and in reply, pen your thoughts to how you interpret it (need not be accurate...can absolutely stretch your imagination). Dont worry...I will try my best not to sound like a villain in an interrogation scene with questions and clues...but why should I have all the fun! So lets put a smile on that face and welcome the first ever lines of 'Nail the Enigma' section...

Saga of the fall scripted in transparent ink
Immortal and disappear with light’s one wink
An orchestra on stage with sound of black and grey
The gods are in tears when they see us all pray…

So, here...we...go! Nail the Enigma...Im counting on you all.

Look forward to all your interpretations!
