My angst with a truth-ridden world
The fuming chimneys of facts
The pervasive alacrity with which science hops
Up and down along the sidewalks
That they bled red with myths and stories
Allegories and parables
Of half truths and serendipity
A street cobbled with legends
Each one tainted, worn off and polished
Mud-walled horizons crept upon
By upturned roots of a Banyan tree
Of remembrances that go beyond birth and
Of ignorance, oh my beloved
Truth upon truth unveiled and shun
All epistemic whispers turned gibberish
I sat outstretched upon the throne of falling memories
Letting the water rush through my pelvic abhorrence
Cleansing it of all realisations
And the humming that you can’t hear
But pokes it’s primeval rhythm
Permeating through your skin
Of all time lost and slowing down
The water flowing coming to a standstill
Until the lullaby becomes the tangible beat of life
And all life dies in a morose fading majenta
I draw inwards and seep into the crevices
And soon will be unseen
But will lay with sparkling eyes and complete ignorance
On the cradle of birth rocked by myths and hymns
That makes no sense and has no verse
