FORGING AHEAD ON LIFE’S LAST TRACK
Aliens are some actions to me and to my character;
Soft soaping and soft pedaling I keep at a distance;
Traditions and culture if at all prove too difficult to handle,
I blow them off to upset the applecart!
Rules are to follow but not meant to destroy,
The mind gets decimated when bent against someone;
Egos, pop-up and innocents mercilessly challenged;
What if the challenged, challenges the challenger?
The mind has an orbit through which it traverses;
No compulsion what so ever is needed to keep it on track;
The mind just takes ‘conscience’ as its guide,
But refutes, who so ever who puts it at stakes.
No man on earth can contain nature’s infinite ferocity;
No sail on boat withstands even a depleted storm;
Even super-structures crumble when pitted against quakes;
Oh! It’s hard to understand the ‘Ever-changing Thoughts’ of human mind!
The mind gets depressed with jumbled thoughts,
When external matters force themselves in to fill the vacuum;
And then it gets heavily laid and struggles to hold;
Hence the confusion to keep ‘Life’ on normal course.
Oh! I wanna sail, smooth sail through the rippleless river of life;
Glide through the mist like a spoon that slips through the buttery cream;
Wanna breeze past, so gentle through a peaceful but exquisite life;
Oh! I’m confused not; and so I wish to forge steadily ahead on life’s last track!
I enjoyed this immensely. So
I enjoyed this immensely. So true words, Ben!!

"No", she replied, "but I have experienced it. "
