Eligible Bachelors

As I began to climb the campus stairs,
All alone with a numb ache-
A depression blocked those minute vessels,
That carries my vital fluid that frequently thins.
A kind of a genetic disorder that robs me off-
All of my terrible hormones that loses competition,
A competition so heroic called youth,
That settles the score of my sexual life.
A physical length that reduces me to a dwarf,
Almost an intelligent ape that snubs too-
And cannot have biology with another species,
That adores a disqualified creature of its size.
 
What can make me happy?
What do I want then?
Shall I need those beautiful preachers of opposite genes?
Shall I claim their eminence in my life?
Or leave them for those eligible bachelors?
 
As I landed my nose in the campus pillars,
And nobody cared but me-
A stimulus recoiled and resurrected those minute vessels,
That carries my vital fluid that became viscous again.

‘Eligible bachelors’ is a complex poem that speaks of the disturbance caused due to the absence of an opposite sex relationship in a teenage boy’s life, in a very different way. The characterization is that of a straight forward youth not very popular among the girls in his college and the related inferiority complex that he suffers from. His agony and disturbance certainly invokes sympathy but his vision is revolutionary as well.
The poem describes the emergence of the gay community arising out of psychological issues born in the society unknowingly. A psycho maniac poem which is funny to read and serious to think about!
