I Chanced Upon A False Reality – Poem by Rahul Kashyap

Bespoke the board of written nonsense words-

For me, the lovely haze dwindles today;

Will not those beside me; cannot a verse-

Capture all that happens? I shall not say.

Maths enchants the abode, fills the sad room-

To the brim; a necklace of wisdom old

Appears before my keen eye. Telling bloom,

Rose of beauty, captures the limpid gold.

I wrestled with forever clouded Reason, 

What is to become of reality? Trusted

The laws of physics; now commit treason.

Rubbing my eyes- consoled, vision a-rusted.

Thus, to startle my sick, weary soul;

To awoke staring at the text, the goal!
