The best way to know the self is feeling oneself at the moments of reckoning. The feeling of being alone, just with your senses, may lead you to think more consciously. More and more of such moments may sensitize ‘you towards you’, towards others. We become regular with introspection and retrospection. We get ‘the’ gradual connect to the higher self we may name Spirituality or God or just a Humane Conscious. We tend to get a rhythm again in life. We need to learn the art of being lonely in crowd while being part of the crowd. A multitude of loneliness in mosaic of relations! One needs to feel it severally, with conscience, before making it a way of life. One needs to live several such lonely moments. One needs to live severallyalone.

STRANGE WAS THE MOMENT

‘Strange’ has been the word,
So familiar that it flows along
Yet, at time, it clings
To that realm of strangeness,
That I rush to get along

The saving grace that is,
The ‘Grace’ would glow
When the higher reincarnation,
Would bathe the ‘Soul’

The wait has to be
Imminent
To the next level of,
The predictive adoptability
For now,
The ‘Strange’ is
Mundane,
To the existing level of,
The hunching sensibility  

Though no burden yet
The saving grace that is,
The chaos runs deep
Words transform,
To disappear,
Somewhere in the,
Courtyard of the hollow
When the black feeds the ‘complete’

‘Strange’ has been the word,
So familiar that it flows along
Yet, at time, it clings
To that realm of strangeness,
That I run to catch it fast

Did you say ‘strange’?

Strange is the word
So familiar now
Though,
Strange was the moment
When it all started
