23. GRUNTS OF CREATION


I contented surely with the life on and off
But never could go beyond that.
I am certainly affectionate off & on
But never could become more than that.
Blood circulated merely in my heart
But never could grow intrinsic power.
Many seasons of spring came in & out
But never sprouted foliage in my mind!
Birds persisted chirrup all around
But never could make its nest whither in my existing.

I am amazed why?
Why the grunts of creation
Could not imprint in my mind
Though I am living in this creative cosmos?
Why the ocean of my life not rippled with glee?

This universe standing aside me in full
Evincing myself the root cause of it 

I could see myself in a corner as if I am dead.
Dead because tethered in constraints otherwise alive.
Constraints of mind, not allowing me to buzz even!

Ants stinging the entire body
 Body is laid as an orphan.           
Ants of instances and events happened now & then
I am unconscious by mind, Decrepit by body! Moribund!

Mighty past instances trampling me underfoot.
Instances of Spite and Hate, Instances of Rivalry and Conceit
That brought about by me and my only
I am sprawled at sixes and sevens on the ground helplessly
Like a dead cockroach

A cockroach, six legged, disgusting
A cockroach that scuttles sickening every corner
 Without reason!
The ocean of life appeared slow down and down
Nowhere waves to rise. No ripples! No breakers!
Love, affection, warmth, tender everything boiled down.
Blood circulation in entire body waning to stop
 Epilepsy to come about during the green spring!
Twittering of birds wholly fading into oblivion!

Mere coracles deafening me
Perhaps ants shelling my facet and hard bones 
A little consciousness, a bit swoon!
 Arts of colors
Ants of Spite & Hate, Ants Rivalry & Conceit
Carrying away my frame to some unknown place!


Feelers on my mouth budged a bit here and there
 And I applauded to see me alive
Then I yelped the universe aside me
“I am strong, I am too strong!”
Universe said, “Instance are bound to come & bound to go.
Now I will send spring for you
You be ready! You be ready!”
