Mortality
An another day
Another day….by Aishwarya
Colours of twilight seeps through intermittently,
Radiating one last time before departure,
Handing over the baton never was easy,
Through faint spectra, moon’s beams assures continuity,
Oh! Wouldn’t the rhythm be disrupted on a new moon’s day?
Difficult to accommodate successor,
Fringes of confusion underlining the inevitable,
What would be a tomorrow, an another day.

Are you giving away your life?
Are you giving away your life for something you did not ask for, or don’t want?
Identify the mental traps that your life is embedded in.
Just take the first step chains you see are dark smoke embers died ages ago while you slept feet heavy with inertia eyes blinded by illusion -you are cared forrevolving, rotating around your own axis What kept you tied down while the Earth moved?Touch the boundaries where gravity ends Non-linear is the path of life Go, find your own sun...

I tossed, turned all night struggled to get things right not a singe straight line I wanted those to align ~to build a bridge of some kind~ two points which don’t entwine resources to build on a design zig-zag ideas it does ignite till I make two ends unite https://dversepoets.com/2021/04/27/poetics-build-a-bridge/

Rain
I think of Charlie Chaplin, as I walk through rain. He said he likes walking in the rain, as no one can see his tears. I know I’ll be busy and back to a normal routine after getting back home. Yet, these moments of solitude and raindrops bring so much to the surface - emotions … Continue reading Rain

A Beautiful Thought
Who invented the concept of corporate dress codes ? There is a rebel inside each of us, which was created in school. Being confined in uniforms obstructed our discovery of glamour. Breaking the rules earned us notoriety with the authorities, but also peer admiration.
I came across an article by Robert Anton Wilson, which says that the first 25 years of our lives are spent in being compelled to conform to societal norms. He says,
It takes the first third of our lives to destroy the curiosity and experimentalism; and in most cases, we become placid parts of a docile herd.
Just brilliant !
The Concept of Image
The movement shifted from the campus to corporates and now home offices. Why can’t you work in pyjamas from your bedroom?
A dress code cripples individuality.
Think again.

Alone Pist – Apocolypse …
