Purple passage, a poetic prose.


I always get caught, like a fledgling, to the snare of thy own thoughts and vacillate between nothingness and abundance, defeating thyself from being victorious yet being unable to reign over like a Maharaja over thyself. The appalling degree of logic inside thy humble bubble of consciousness aspires for something more than a mere victory. Logic, logic it was and it is no music. The cause for the evolution and devolution of thy thoughts. Every rise is followed by an equal ebb keeping thoughts far from materialisation making thee feel hapless. Expression defied I feel, though I've struggled to bring out one. A sweet burden it seems to me at times. And I end up falling in love with it. More the words more is the love. Paradoxically, the sentences become smaller as I go on indicating thee the struggle has become more rigorous and complex. And so I elaborate it oscillating between a poem and a prose, a poetic prose rather, alternating between the heart and the mind and carry the contradiction with an accustomed wonder. Cool breeze soaked in a drizzle escapes into my window and unsettles thy hair prompting thee to walk out to thy terrace and partake in the soundless opera of nature. Dark clouds had set the background for the dance of colourless darts of water to a tune set by the winds of high mountains making thee carry the contradiction but with a new wonder. It is always nature, an eternal wonder, that pacifies the logics-of-compunction of thy silly mind and tells thee it is not victory, as there is no such thing, but, it is the enlightenment with a selfless love, is all there is...and that probes my vacillation to strike a balance with the opera. The snare has disappeared and my thoughts have become lines in the opera as I listen to them with wonder!

The ground zero of perception!


It was the ground zero of perception
I still wonder at my realisation of that
The thoughts were coiled in themselves with no loose ends
Concotion of appetizing waves of sounds turning into a meaning
But yet it failed to be a poem or a song
I was amazed for it was all an abstraction
At the ground zero of perception
Confused...
Then came the duality, an irrevokable opinion, with its sovereign might
Showing its infinite manifestions consuming all that was thinkable
Mind wanted to implode at this convolution oxidising my breath
I held it tight but was no way near the might of that duality
Scared...
River of thoughts flew across the mind from an unknown source
Telling me to open and clear the eyes, it was the rightest moment to do so I believe
Eyes spurred open at the first initiation
For once I saw 'I' was two, the perception and the percieved
Realised...
The duality had split
I saw and I perceived
(That) The duality was fine
And returned to the ground zero of peception
Walking away, thinking, I was there, and I saw it
Remebered...
This is my daily dose of exercise to my mind
To make itself feel what a wonder it is
I walkin and walkout of the ground zero of perception
Wondered...
