Predicament...!!!
When you had it all figured out;
Did you consider life putting in its clout?
If there be a day, the way we wish it to be;

What did we lose; a day before or a day after to see?
Chaotic life within which we dwell;
Liveth man within his own well.
Ego hadth neither been a bane nor a boon;
Yet affecth everyone with its ludicrous toon.
A blip in cosmos, yet the cosmoses surround us;
Ignorance gives fodder to delusion without a fuss.
A meandering stream overcometh its hurdle tell;
Like a wandering mind, rummaging without its well.
No edit, nor throw; neither it's to and fro;
Yet it affects all our lives as we grow...!!!
PS: Special thanks to Sunny for helping in penning down these thoughts after a wonderful brain-storming and mutual-learning session.
Interesting thoughts, bro.
ReplyDeleteAs far as I am concerned, pride and ego, goes hand in hand. Sometimes, it's a bane, and sometimes, it's a boon. :)
Indeed...pride and ego go hand in hand and both perfectly complements each other.
DeleteHowever, its boon only when someone takes it positively...else it ends as bane only.
Wonderfully written!

DeleteHow to say?
Everytime we try to figure it out, these two questions are what life leaves us with. :)
Almost reads as though in the voice of Gollum (from Lord of the Rings), I think because of "cosmoses." What if Gollum were to write sonnets? Hmmmm.

That's so true, Sarab.
Indeed...!!!
Deletethanks Vinay. Glad to have you here.
Do we ever get it figured out but life is that way you know.
ReplyDeleteSo true. By the time we think we got it figured it out, something new will be there to make us realize that we've missed a lot by a long shot.
