Last night in Vishmwa shoes
Lying on a bed of arrows
Waiting for the ooze
To quench sorrows.
Draped determination
No Arjun came to rescue
Nor there was one to
Nurse a core vacuumed.
Those descriptions of
Feelings if probable only
In fictitious epics, then
Why do we undergo stress?

Bhishma: Ref: freeindia.org Bhishma
Bhishma was thirsty and asked for water. …He then looked at Arjuna. Arjuna understood his mind. He sent an arrow, which pierced deep into the 'ground; crystal-clear waters shot up in fountains and fell straight into the open mouth of Bhishma.
