Funny Autobiographic Thoughts

In 1966 I burned my bra –
Haven’t worn one since,
Content with what God gave me once;
No plastic *****, no silly-cone nonsense
Standing up when l lie down -
A thought I find amusing
To be added to when musing;
Funny mem’ries such as these
Will carry on as they occur –
Which they will I’m sure.
Bubbling up unceasingly.
(to be continued in the future).

Nocturnal eyes
Poisoned by the light      
No Nicotine, Caffeine, Alcohol
Sound mental health,
Unclassified reasons
Vivid dreams without a sleep

Searching sun at night
In standby mode
Listening to breathe
Minute counts >60 seconds

Autobiographic life
No one to say something, anything,
In night, tomorrow comes today
Time hard to slip by,
Join Stars society,
Still no gain
Science has nothing to offer, and  
No God is gonna help

Carving for Sleep
A good rest is truly a bliss
Experience of heaven on earth.

Why can’t I write anything?
Why I need to write something?

Between those two questions, I found my way to ink my thoughts being fascinated with words addressing a soul inside the human body. Being a part-time dreamer, full-time realist I tried to reflect human psyche, social-issues, clinical journey, and so forth with an interdisciplinary approach. White Words invariably explores the hidden depths of a human, set free by either circumstance or the truth. With every new day I felt writing is not just an art, It’s a social engineering with thought exploring the boundaries of our mind. Words could be a medium to achieve inner peace, sometime embraced with an autobiographic element. Nevertheless it needs to be visualized with holistic lens, being near and far off from the distance with curiosities to get the true meaning of it.

All forms of arts are work in progress, where artist tries to reflect the craftsman’s imaginations and emotions, other time control it with an armor and conceals things using words easy to say in the comfort of expressive outlet. Honestly, I never cared about getting it right, now the same thing is inspiring me in the form of catharsis to make a free verse of a poetic trail.

I feel blessed to be around the people I've come to admire.  I remember mom for providing much needed optimism and endless devotion. There is always something new to learn and there is a constant effort to evolve with a better reflection. I want to thank all those who enjoy my writing, and open enough to hone honest  criticism. I  am  accountable for all the errors in bringing this up.

Let the White Words be the life to live by. Until we are blind to foreseeable future, live until we die, laugh until we cry and write what can’t be said. Lastly for a moment just imagine, how good it is to have a voice and being heard, and heeded.
