Will it be left to an eternal or an imminent decide?!: A poem 

You know if I could only count till three 

Would it mean I was weak-kneed? 

There is sweat like enormous beads 

As if I have only learnt to bleed? 

When I was little, I could only count till ten 

So, when did it all begin; when? 

You know the sinners paraded all through as winners 

You’d think I deserve obloquy, because they had no conscience in their inners? 

In my youth, I kept a moustache 

Would you believe it was resoluteness and wisdom, that I did not ever ask 

Who did take up the onus, for you all, to save? 

Would I take the answer silently to my grave? 

Does imposed grief make you (not me!) fear? 

Or in so much grief, you shed not a tear! 

You know love’s deceit was no disillusionment for King Lear! 

He heard its true voice ringing in his ear! 

And if I die, would you call out the spy? 

Does it blink, the fish’s eye? 

One more victory, or no more, for that treason 

Would their (PSP and AA) evil last me out every season? 

 
The stones don’t kill me, if death does! 

The burning at the stake doesn’t take from us! 

A Phoenix can shatter the ceiling and floor! 

It is no bird in vain; eternity knows whom to show the door!

I think it is a spiritual experience, my doctors think otherwise. I am a deeply spiritual person and keep having experiences with otherworldly realms.
