A drab world
Eshwara Prasad Sep 2023
drab world.
Life's wheels are moving backwards.
Dreams are buried in graveyards.
Conflict and war enslave freedom.
A raging sea and a reckless fire consume the hate-filled land.  
Remorseless, greedy humans are hunting for heaven in the ruins of their own civilisation.

The letter you wrote for me has arrived. It's wet. I'm not sure what made it wet—your tears or the rain that poured along the way. It cannot be read. But I'm curious which of my two conclusions would please you.

I don't understand, really.
Eshwara Prasad Aug 2023

Furious Spirits
Eshwara Prasad Aug 2023
The time since taking in the breath of life has passed considerably.

To keep ourselves afloat in the abyss of dead experiences has been a difficult battle.

It's time to inject some life and jolts of action into our flagging spirits.

Shall we plunge into a brew of furious spirits that are waiting to devour us?

Unpleasant recollections
Eshwara Prasad Jul 2023
Recycled thoughts frequently burst through mental cracks. Unpleasant recollections flood the mind.

Jolts of emotion

Filled with delight.
There were no obvious causes.
Around me, it felt like joy was everywhere.

I know these feelings are ephemeral, though, deep down.
But it is difficult to understand why we sometimes feel such jolts of emotion.
