Crazy

I enter my buddy’s house.
It wears a deserted look.
Is there anyone at all? I yell
I encounter a silence.

Called once again,
Face a quietude.
I go back.
A sound stops me.

The sound is shrill. Not a man’s
I move in haste.
Could be a ghost? I presume.
I run.

The voice echoes
through the avenue. I hold on.
Nothing inauspicious in the lineup.

Concerned, I go onward.
The expression is a wee behind.
Terrified, I sit down in a corner.
The voice trails.

My heart pounds.
A parrot nudges close.
I attempt to fondle her.
She talks incessantly.

Is this not the one I heard so long?
I chuckle. Crazy

A Popular Politician May 19, 2019
One of a politician who has lot of wits, a natural orator, uses them to manipulate. Born in a family, both traditional and modern, in years becomes greedy. Rises in ranks fast, turns authoritative in talk, speaks no truth. People start to understand, the euphemisms of his mislead.They disengage from his fold. One thing for […]

Better Be A Stone May 18, 2019
I am stuck. The mind turns void. Eyes blink. I stay for hours. I hear silence. Think of nothing, A stone like being. I remain for long. I forget the place. Do not remember places, names. am quiet for a time. I appear strange. A semblance to none. Akin to the dumb, deaf. A lunatic, […]

The Path I Traverse May 15, 2019
In my school days I stuck to reading unmindful of science and mathematics. Had I mastered those would have made money astronomical. I read, write, turn lyrical. While my friends turn professionals I do business and down I go. Books,trading and family pull the threads along the folds I succumb and survive. None wish to […]

Dilemma And Despair May 14, 2019
Dilemma and despair, the tirades one within you, the other without will kill you. Dilemma gnaws, comes and goes, allows no rest, an inability pronounced! a surrealism. Despair cripples, lingers and remains, extends sleepless nights melancholy breeds! an existentialism. Man undergoes these experiences which play fair and foul! a realism.

Maria Lives The Way May 12, 2019
She smiles that wins. She nods that softens. She moves that pauses. She disappears that ends. Her way of interaction. May be right, might be wrong she does not know. Mostly she is quiet shuns noise and commotion. If hurt more than once she gives back in tonnes. Whoever he might be she retorts with […]

There be A Validity May 11, 2019
A difference, be that an opinion is not a confrontation. A distinctionbe that of measurements is but an error. A demarcation be that of an area is always a limitation. A disparity be that in cash is ever a fraud. The perceptions one after another present a validity. That be how we classify the incongruence.

Those Of Whom May 10, 2019
Being a lazy thinker, nothing much do I do turn a spectator a silent one perhaps, wherever I go, very rare watch the people close attentive to the talks, perceive the facial expressions, and observe the body language, Many dual personalities who harp on ethics, aesthetics and truth turn to be pretenders. They nurture deceit […]
