On the last day god rested after creating man and giving him the reign of all things alive and inanimate..
I have no pictures to show on what he missed out, though he knew .. there are things you just do not finish to perfection..
I leave without doing many things, fulfill many pledges, into uncertain future..this life is a monster i created, which love and tenderness, and with regrets..
The monster survives the amphitheater sometimes.. well, games never were for faint hearted..
I saw many things and couldn't pull myself away enough to draw what it was like.. thus i am a bad painter, a bad historian, my account contains many errors,innumerable fallacies, the beautiful parts i missed, and others i never knew untill after..
I know many would grow to love these imperfections, treating them as lovers treat the scars of their first nights..Imperfection make us individuals, they give us a niche to call our own..
That's not how i wanted things to turn out, but, now it's there, and it works, makes good recipe for drama and nostalgia.
So i watch, and what's visible, sometimes dig into what wasn't out of curiosity.. sometimes i have this great ugre to put things right, and i give up midway as i get engrossed into something fascinating unravelling from mundane..
I leave thus

beautifully expressed.....Ank I fall in love with your writing one more time....wish u all beauty with all its imperfections which only makes it more breathtaking....and if god himself left some incomplete probably it was the faith in the human to drive it to perfection...each of us have but a small part to play in nearing it....and move on.
ReplyDeleteIts a successful...conscious writer...who feeds on his own regrets, failures, nostalgia...and lets them grow too...
