Being Poet
Alphabets on keyboard are laying static.
Thoughts are but,
extremely potent and energetic.
Holding on to a thought even for one moment,
is but,
a disproportionate act.
Like perfume in the air,
it lingers in my mind, yet,
sometimes is annoyingly mute and stagnant.
Putting words to my thought,
many a times is in fact,
a stalemate.
Many a times i type random words and alphabets,
yet,
they relate, make sense, how i know not.
As i write few more words new thoughts trigger,
that,
cascade over the older ones creating strong knots.
Suddenly it bereaves me between the lines as i write.
but,
in a flash wakes up, when i am silent.
By nurturing this crazy act day-in day-out,
I've felt like,
I have turned from a simpleton, to a poet.
