SHORELINE DRIVE


The vast ocean spreads across the dusky horizon 

The distant sun seems tired
 as it sinks in the concrete jungle 

As lights crop up and glow  along the jeweled   shoreline
 

The evening is slow ; The city is chirpy

Helter and skelter;  people  and thoughts wander
 

The mood is mellow;  and  joy simmers

Watching  from the window

As a million lives ebb and flow


My  auto-rickshaw  chugs away ! 

ILLUSIONARY SHIP


Uttering all that comes to the lips


Doing all that comes to the finger tips


As thoughts race  and  feeings rage


Striving to save self , the illusionary ship ! 



Oh Soul ! Don't let your heart drown! 



DRAWING THE LINE


Can one become two ?

When love is the emperor! 

Yet!

In the a sky of ideas

A line is drawn

The world collapses

As two heads face away


Oh! will only anger remain ? 



SO WHAT



This and  that 

Full of fancy! 
 

I am great; 
 I think !

I am the best;  I know ! 

I stand above all;  I feel !

Suddenly!   

In the last moment
 

As he draws his  certain sword


 Death says! 

So what!!


CONNOISSEURS ON CUE


Connoisseurs of Art and science!


You and I! 

We think we are
 !

Complex, behavioral machines! 

Yet,when the bell rings
 

Like the dog of Pavlov
 

We drool on cue!
