I’m taking a ride
don’t know why and where
but I am on the road
since early today
like a pariah dog
whose tail wags
and nose sniffs
his next destination

I’m a broken twig
on a nameless path,
being kicked from
one end to another
zigging and zagging
due to some foreign force
while innate needs are
bronzed in sunburns

I’m desireless
of any direction
just like my walk
in the course of
whatever may happen
(who cares anyway?)
one black hole to another
one dark night to another

I’m begging for a smile
don’t know from whom
but here I stand
with o u t s t r e t c h e d palms
and a hopeful face
with skin tattooed
by tragedy marks
and breathing borrowed airs

Sudhir - you've got some good thoughts floating around in that brain of yours. I enjoy seeing them put into words like this... pariah... understood that.

Peace

(smiles) Yay!!! Yes, and may these borrowed airs instruct you with wisdom and strength as you go about with your arms wide open and embrace the dreams you desire regardless of direction! (sigh) This is excellent, sweet friend, I love it, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Sudhir, thank you for sharing!

May love and light always shine upon you!

Love,
Noah Eaton

Just I think I have read the depths, you bring another boil to the pot.
All hopeful gatherings sent spirited your way poet. You are a talented artist.

P.S. yeah, Karilea the well is full, deep and full... but not everything felt comes to words and fewer come to paper
