FUTURE
English Poetry |
You lose your calm often
Without any reason
You start shouting at someone
Your sleep had gone
Down the drain
Of your liquidized brain
You are troubled by a question
One serious question
Tomorrow…..what happens?
In pursuit of answers
You burn incense
In shrines
You run after saints
And soothsayers
Yet that question lingers
Tomorrow…what happens?
Let me ask you one question
Why should you question at all, when
The time to come is pregnant
With every answer, every response
Every rejoinder and every retort
If you have an omen
That your questions will remain
Unanswered, for ever
Gulp them like bitter medicines
And get not restless
At the time-keeper’s reticence
Take it granted that
It was enough of His disclosure
As much as you’re entitled for
Who knows? It may be
A blessing in disguise
What use is rattling on and on
And on and on and on and on
A tree with fruits none.
And get not restless
At the time-keeper’s reticence- great lines,great poem Anuradha Ji
