Of Sudden Burst of Emotional Adrenalin

Winds howling at the disbelievers
Birds and hawkers perform operatic psalms
Honks and coughs share their the riotous noise
Unnoticed.

I drive in a moonless sky
Stars have retired and all above is black
I puff my cigarette very casually
Unmindful of the beauty amid darkness.

My only companion summons the smoke
That dances as the wind sings its lullaby
One stick after the other
I resign in this boring routine.

Where once repository of honeybee
Where once the mouth of the river
That explorers pass for adventurous voyage
Lies a decrepit land of desert sand

Five years have gone and my life slips
Though through their eyes I succeed
Car, house, good education for my kid
What else do I need?

But I never make a difference
I lick the whims of demigods
Become numb and indifferent
What else do I need?

I need to kick darkness till it bleeds daylight!
