Closing ones borders and other such things…

IMG_0893

[How does the yeast know.
When and where to close its boundary.
I shall always wonder.
Often nature is attributed
To a random process.
Yet, it functions.
As though it has a heart
Of its own.] Continue reading “Closing ones borders and other such things…”

Bruises of many kinds

Bruised ants, talking to each other ?

{

A bruised banana
in my kitchen,
Invites many an ant,
Up the wall, by the crack,
Reaching up to the soft crevice.

Thoughts in a square frame!

Elderly people experience loneliness even when surrounded by many people. Being hard of hearing, and having poor vision, they wait everyday for the chariot of death to take them away to the land promised by their religions. With bones aged, and movement restricted, they now live their lives as onlookers, like the stick children in this drawing, crawling and babbling, as they experience their second childhood. The brilliance of our youth too will wither soon, and new beings will yet again be born, and thus the civilisation continues even after we are gone. I wonder what happens to our worries and fears, our joy and pleasures...
