The October Musings... Poem by M D Dinesh Nair
The October Musings...
No more is the sun hot.
October shadows are now clinging to the hills.
I am again ready to speak,
To negate and to kindle the dust.
The issues are still floating in the wind
And they reach my windows as no breeze.
Like the bleached skin of a dying man
Your portrait of eternity appears before me!
You could look through it and beyond
But your vision too will be bleached!
I see the fatigued face of a sweating God
Whose abode is crushing under a storm.
I may want to negate the remains of pedagogy,
And the shoddy make-up of the lies,
Told by the half learned at large
But their reverberations may still take you by fancy.
The men in ugly immorality
And those in search of the uglier immortality
Have to distance from me
If they denounce the very humanistic entity.
Your frown is a wrong design to me
When you want to eat my brain
With logic akin to illusions
And I am prone to disaster unsolicited.
Why do you let out the roars of laughter,
Bidding for the flesh of carved saints
Or believing in the partiality of a much wronged God?
A God hiding in the dog eared scriptures!
This October I shall scribble a few more lines
On the yellow and green leaves of reason
And shall still read your hymns sung
Amidst the notes of a faith buried within you..
The men in ugly immorality And those in search of the uglier immortality Have to distance from me If they denounce the very humanistic entity. Those who denounce humanistic entity have to be certainly kept at a distance... no doubt! But I don't understand how searching immortality becomes uglier in your eyes! Remember, there are mortals who feel fortified at the thought of a world of immortal bliss awaiting them which make them brave enough to face death! As you fear and as Diane has hinted, I don't have an armoury to silence you or douse your heated arguments! I am just a humble mortal who believes that if God doesn't will, I cannot take a step further! Since you are confident enough to brave ahead without a God, well proceed without any hesitation! Enjoyed the poem!

A thoughtful write. I too agree, those who denounce humanistic entity have to be certainly kept at a distance. I too, used to visit temples almost everyday and today I rarely goto temple. As time taught me I cannot change my fate line, which I am born with. Yes, to cross the storms, everyone chooses different ways. If I just sit and pray, nothing is going to happen. I have to swim across or the other choice left is to get drowned. But to get courage, one prays. I do believe in fate, but after knowing fate, what I can do is nothing.The things will take place as it should be. Some things doesn't happens coincidently, but its well played by the time and situation. I have noticed it many times. Some don't pray, but they have strong will power, to swim across at their might. While others pray to get enough courage, and will to cross, it's not that they are lacking in will power, but they have faith, prayers changes things. The main thing is to cross the storms. No one is wrong in either ways. Choose any ways, but both ways are correct, this I will tell today.... Loved reading it. I don't know there is something wrong in posting comments, I have posted it. still not visible....
