A single word does not pass,
Dry and dreary, Oh so parched!
Once so full, the plenitude!
Emptiness now, so seclude
Pen and paper sit side by side,
Facing away, a gruesome fight,
Mutiny this, sprung up on me,
I cannot abide this silent spree!
Brain cells tingle with despair,
Time ticks by, dangling a sword,
How, pray, do I break this Curse?
Coffee, candles, hand of God?
I search in vain, there is no light,
Buzzing ears and fireflies,
O gracious words! Do not so mock!
Banish thyself, Writer's Block!

Today's Pratibha's B'day!! (She's my mami, but then she's the coolest too) She's apparently not here, she's in Hong Kong. So happy b'day.
Also, Happy Bday, Ashu Anna. It's a much sadder place without you.
(You would think, good memory is a good thing. Times like these, it hurts like hell)

hey..
I think poem is awesome, how you manage playing with words like that. It is bit difficult to understand for normal people like me ;)
BTW can you please write some understandable English. I understood though, but after having 3,4 look's in my dictionary..
PS : you rock baby...
I'm a genius. It's as simple as that.
Now go, fetch me some chocolates.
:)
And you shall, find the words,
That lead to Nirvana and some more;
Think not now, if you've already thunk,
Let the feeling sink and bunk,
And you shall have, words galore.
@Deng: Piece of fluff, you
:)

here is a short poem i wrote..
STRUGGLE
My life my struggle
Life through all I did was struggle
Life through all I did is struggle
I struggle for little contentment in my life
All I lack was little contentment in my life
I cried I starved I struggle,
just for little happiness in my existence.
I hope for little bliss for my life.
I wanted peace,
I wanted love.
But all I got was hatred and frustration.
I wept each time,
And consonance was not all I hunted.
Grant me some harmony,
Grant me some love.
I am becoming frail,
Forgetting my track for my rail .
Make me strong,
Give my life gladness song.
Forgive me if I am somewhere wrong ,
With all you people let me live long.
