On my Way...to Meet the Macaw!

On my Way...to Meet the Macaw!
My pastel moods
"Some murmur, when their sky is clear

And wholly bright to view

If one small speck of dark appear

In their great heaven of blue:....."

-Trench

...Women are fastidious, and now you know a bit about me.


THE ONLY LONELY

THE ONLY LONELY
"Deserted at his utmost need,
By those his former bounty fed;
On the bare earth exposed he lies,
With not a friend to close his eyes."

Family.


We were meant to be a Unit.

The unit, rather.

Signifying an integral utopian bliss.

Perfection is, supposedly, a translucent slide galloping in my mind.

I could never have a jaw with it and thus have always executed it in vain.

We were meant to be a Unit.

A faith newly recognised,

A belief remoralized,

A religion revised!

I sigh!~ the Indian citizenry, if it would've permitted my essay to thrive, could've been a splendid exordium here.

It was also meant to be a unit.

A 'was' is all that matters.

Yes, you can yawn and twitch your muscles at the slight hint of tautology but the onrushing threat of appraisals growing prim won't hinder me Boy.

Seniority descends, Hierarchy prevails.... the rule;

The Rule is somehow knit by the undesired tit-bits: shamble turned into authoritative poise.

Neglected by convention.

Implicated in ignorance.

We were meant to be a unit and a 'were' is all that matters.



THIS IS NO ROMANTIC STUFF.
