Poems and Drawings “My poems search for the universal duality, a relationship between the subject and the object, spirit and the matter, trying to find the totality in this influx of paradoxes, in an effort to unlock the mysteries of life. I search the elusive reality of human consciousness through the lines, splashes of colors and the impressions of brush strokes on my canvasses and at times through pen and paper in the form verses”. -Meena Chopra
