Back to Scribbles


Rains, companions of solitude

Hues, vibrant - a sight to behold

Myriad scents, nasal ecstasies

Micro medleys of lullabies

All the joys, in multitude



Out there to conquer

Scaling frontiers unmarked

Waiting to break in

given a miniscule crevice

Beckons a world, no, an oyster



In thoughts aplenty, immersed

washing away the sins

In turn, purging - within and beyond

Let them wreak havoc

Knowing, they won't be cursed



Ironic, when all the splendour

Gets masked by a veil

Of collecting what's left

of unhealed wounds

sapping any trace of wonder



It's indeed numb and naive

Pulverizing every revolt

Rising above the din

A lingering sense prevails

Of treason and make-believe



This hooplah can never cease

A nonsensical anthology

a melange of antitheses

I call it. What's to be done?

To revere, or to appease?
