A Contrary Sun

A Contrary Sun

Sri Krishna

I am lit by a contrary Sun, 
An all denying No my only companion. 
 
Where once was the Deity, in a chamber of pristine fire, 
Now repose a hundred goblins of fury and ire. 
 
He who I hoped to reach, has sent now a darkened twin, 
Who manages my affairs and all within. 
 
This and all before that flowed through me
Are episodes of my brief eternity.
