Helpless But Not Dejected Poem by PARTHA SARATHI PAUL

Helpless But Not Dejected



Even the path I am married to
has little idea about what lies miles ahead;
I implored 'today' to phone 'tomorrow'
but even telephone directory could not help...
Maybe, 'tomorrow' does not carry a cell;
maybe, the cell is away from the service area!
The visibility is not that poor
yet the path here fails even in strained effort
to be exactly sure about pot-holes, bends
and pool of pain somewhere even a little far!
Heard that 'today' made one desperate attempt
but his admission to 'tomorrow`s' yard was denied outright.
I am such an obdurate that never gives up on singed-self!
