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."

- Dryden.

this day not freedom but License.

I was a kid to look out of the window but not one to feel it open. Dark. The neon- lamp lit, flat roofs seem cautious. Eager for another busy start; on tiptoes for old, vile business. A fern skirts my compound wall. The leathery green fern. It's a money plant in origin, I have known all these days: but how "organically" fern strikes me at this moment. And, why abandon such license?!
The intention was of exemplifying some objective but I drop the idea like I rarely refrain from not being beatific or from being a pugnacious social outcast. I lavish and sulk on the ecstatic paradox; while I cower and cry, these tiny leaves run in murderous frenzy spying my late meet with them. " It's better late than never". Goodnight my faithful pillow.
