Loud Rain

The rain is loud now, As if a giant feet arises from the clouds To step on the river under the bridge of my heart And disturb it in such a way That the sails of ships bend, And the water touches the bridge from below, Tickling it to sorrow… The rain is loud now, But actually, it has always been like this. You were there once, And I never felt it. But now, All there is Is this sorrow That tickles me from inside, As if it wants me to laugh, Yet doesn’t let me At the same time…

Attainment

 We all had our torches

We all had our paths to choose

Some of us won

Most of us did lose


Most took the well lit path

And threw away the torch

Some took the dark path

And did the same

Some took the dark path

And let the torch guide them


But I was dumb. Too dumb

So I took the lit path

And held on to my torch

The path turned dark

But I still had my torch


I reached the destination

But maybe I shouldn't have

No one else reached

I was alone.

Enlightenment

 One day coldplay came on radio And lifted my roof. I could see the sky And faces I wanted to forget And flowers I could not smell in the clouds; Flashing lights, Gunshots, Dances with some woman I’very never met. Oh Coldplay! Oh Tchaikovsky! How do you know The pain of one man out of the hundreds of thousands. How do you know what I’d forgotten. How can you care more than all I’ve met. You have more life than most people Because you have a soul. And a soul in man is rarer than the scriptures say. And a soul in man is dead if it still exists anywhere. Oh Coldplay! Oh Tchaikovsky! How do you know The pain of one man out of the hundreds of thousands. One day coldplay came on radio And lifted my roof. But then it fell on my chest And crushed me to a pillow of tears.

Killing loneliness

 I live alone And yet I feel a tingle now and then, As if the tiger watches through the bush outside. I live alone And yet I hear voices coming from The pipelines, The breathing curtains, The bug kissing the bulb That gets pushed away every time. I live alone And hear and see and smell what they don’t. Sometimes The loneliness eats you up And you won’t realise that the voices you hear I the crunching of that mighty jaw That chews you Slowly And slowly, Until you're eaten fully. And no one will know. Become a Patron!

Magic and logic

 A white horse with wings Can come out of the ocean, Cats afraid of water Can develop a taste for fish, Bats dying on power lines  Still roam around at night. Logic is not enough in this world. Logic is not enough When a rhinoceros chases you through the Savannah. Nature steps in And tells you to run for your life. It doesn’t tell you to wait And make a trap in the sand. Maybe The weird is just what has not become logic yet. But Should we make it logic? Should we really ooze out the magic in everything? We have become Too smart. We have become Too selfish. We have become  Too organised, Too fixed our ways. And we don’t see the magic in anything.
