scratching tired thoughts that float in the dull evening air like the sun itself relentlessly shredding soul to spread light to the lightless and give hope to the hopeless they have had enough and now their stint is done in this vast prison where time is a jailer and memories -- the prime criminals they rest like stench on dry barks of dead trees that once were green fresh like mist-filled dawns soon they won’t even be worth their scratches yet the sun would dawn till the star dies [This message has been edited by Sudhir Iyer (08-06-2003 08:40 AM).] |

There is nothing irritable in these words. Wonderful Kethry Here in the midst of my lonely abyss, a single joy I find...your presence in my mind. Unknown |
