Something is Amiss !!

Inspiration …. Got a sore backache…n an unsettled and irritated mind…



Something is Amiss !!



Something is amiss...says my mind.....

Ok... says I

Something is amiss...says my mind.....

Ok... says I

Something is amiss...says my mind.....

So find it...says I



Yes Yes it has to be found out..

The mind rushes around in circles trying to capture the ans..



Help comes in all forms --



U dont have enuf of me.....

U dont have enuf of me.....

Uff...now u see....U dont have.......says Time...



What do i do with u ....says mind...

Well I am all that U have .... capture me like a miser and spend me like a spendthrift..

dont let me go...says Time...



Ah..says the mind....now I get it......

and it goes round....catching every moment...ever watchful of it....

then throwing it to the wind....



I have to spend it...thinks the mind......i have to fill it.....

with...ofcourse with events...with things...with efforts....



So, pushes the mind.....says..do this...do that.....

Then I will have everything and nothing will be amiss....

It rounds around fast...scheming, planning and executing......



But there is a catch, as always is, as there is a blot on the moon...

there is a catch to every story....



The body is groaning..panting...heaving....

Oh...the body cries....U r hurting me...u r killing me.....

leave me...just leave me alone....



Now a senapati ( wats the english word :-( ) ...cant fight without his soldiers...

a dhobi needs his donkey......



and my body wont support my mind...poor thing....

The mind consoles...cajoles...threatens....

U cant let me down....Something was amiss...We are getting it all….says the mind...

I dont want to lose it.. says the mind...go ahead...go ahead...continue....



and the body goes on....it wants to stop.....

but something is amiss....says the body....wat is it...wat is it..

the mind has lost its mind...says the body...

yeah i need one idea...the idea to stop this missing of the mind....

replace this missing with that something....hahahaha....cries the body....



Can I, will I be able to....says the body....

and the body replied....u have started...u cant stop it....its not ur power...

yes yes yes.. says the body...



and it replaced....and the mind stopped minding...

it forgot something was amiss...

it was so full of something...it forgot anything else was missing.....

says the mind....I am so full...its all so dammit full.....free me..free me...

oh body...free me...free me...from your suffering, your pain...

Ah it is all pain that I can feel...continuous never-ending.....



I want nothing....I desire nothing...just leave me....says the mind...

Then the body smiled sadly....my dear friend...I tried to be ur company...

ur humble companion....I rushed around u in circles...



I lost...lost....i got weak....I tried to pull u back...to make u understand..

but alas...now we 3 are companions....

U cannot leave it.....U will not miss anything anymore....



Welcome to the party .... says the pain
