The Scream...
My story - It begins and ends
here, in this place of work
and money. Oh, this need
for the good life, growth
some would say - you start
at 2 lakh something and add
a zero and you hope, someday,
then some.
And everyday, I stifle
this scream for the sea.
But, you hear it, maybe,
Still.
In the old days, they sailed,
I read in these fat fantasy books,
simple men with
similar complex minds
- women, adventure,
plunder, wisdom -
different callings
Maybe, they didn't go far -
wherever their boats, the horse,
their feet, donkey even -
(Mulla Nasruddin ha, ha ha)
took them - knights
in their coarse armour (or without)
it doesn't matter now, does it-
For Go, they did. Forgo.

I romanticize, you say - and yes,
there is truth in that.
But, you hear it, maybe,
Still.
Forgive me, Mr. Munch
