Recycle

These days
the complaints
do not automatically
shift to
the communication department.

Melancholy
does not by itself
get converted to
giggles.

The rubbish accumulates;
The migraine pinches.

It hurts to know
the recycling unit
in the brain
is not working 'normally.'

A dose of spirituality seems to be the remedy...

Ketyaa dookh bhookh sad maar, eh bhi daat teri Daataar

Mana said...

Arre, what happened?

Try Yoga..

Recycling is working,
resulting in a beautiful
way of poem's shape

Feelings come out when there is a over flow of brain's storage BIN.
Thanks to God who has his own ways of recycling.

Come out with more, for your readers!

God bless you!

Vikram Seth scared ppl with one of his poems about an AIDS afflicted guy...

yours has scared ppl that it is the onset of Alzheimer's... only let's hope it is imaginary...

Mampi said...

SS-Your advice is taken.

Manasa-Yoga, yes, you are right.

Mama-Yeah, As wordsworth uncle said, poetry is spontaneous overflow of powerful emotions. Phew!

Gaz-I am feeling better already.

Sujata-Its my pleasure to have you around in my blog. I am glad you loved the music. I try to have music in tandem with the post. Almost!

Pradeep-Glad to have you back. Going to check your new page. Will update the blogroll too.

Roopsie- :), Thankoo

Oreen-So much for serious poetry. And I wanted it to be a sad piece.

Oreen said...

it is sad
and scary, like a person has realized the end is near...
the end of memories or of storage and recycling...
the end can also mean a new beginning...
only the world won't see it as one...

Recycling does work in many cases though!
- When I research I see same content published under different names..
- The standard resopnse to a complaint is nothing but recycling the same BS over and over and it aint help
- People even recycle their tears if they happen to attend back to back funerals (depressing eh!)
- No can be better recycleR than our ex PM Mr Morarji Desai.. those who remember his urine therapy..

Oreen-The only remedy seems to be to enhance the non-retaining memory.

Guri-Gall ta mere dimag di ae, baki ta har pasey chall reha ae recycle. eh wi ho jawega theek.

Devika Jyothi said...

For the brain, knowing the things to be recycled is perhaps the first step..

Reached here through MIP's site. Your Blog Title was tempting.

take a break. a breath of fresh air will make all departments work in order. hopefully recycling unit will start to work again. cheeeeers......

Mampi said...

Pinku- Love you. :)

Vinay-Thank you, I have picked the tag up. Its a lovely one. But there is another tag in queue, I will do it and then do this one.

Devika-Thanks for visiting. Yes, Knowing what to recycle is important but sometimes the whole labelled boxes refuse to be emptied.

Seema-Thanks, Well life works only and only if the recycling unit restarts working. And it almost always does.

HDWK-Glad you liked it.

PARRY said...

Knowing that the recycling process is not in order itself means that its in order!
Dont break this order by following so many sound advices.

UL said...

i loved the comparison.. you took me to the least expected route, the recycle of the brain..hope you are feeling refreshed :) Thanks for the suggestion on my poetry, i took it. i definitely liked worn :)

Indian Home Maker said...

LOL

Blogging is cathartic
Such is the trend
Recycling units work fine,
Once you are with blogging friends :)

Mampi said...

Parry-You are right too. System has been restored now.

UL-You have given me an extreme honor by taking my humble suggestion. My poetry or whatever it is, is nowhere like yours.

IHM-Absolutely right. Love you all. I am perfectly fine now.
