The Art of Talking Is Another Name of Poetry
The art of talking
If you want to talk
And in the process want to learn the art of talking
Then you are requested to sit down beside me
One more request to you
Please do not take me as sage
I will not take you either
Sages are all known people
If they are not fool then they are misinformed about all things
They are confident enough on what concerns about life
Because they misunderstand a lot
Precondition of our talk is we will not misunderstand each other
Let alone life
Our talk will continue
And under no circumstances our views will ever merge
Like the tracks of railways they will be parallel
And like trains they will move fast
During talks if you able to correct me what i
Believe is wrong with evidence
I will not hesitate to salute you and
And without showing arrogance immediately I will change
As changing is permanent and
Change does not harm any one of us
And hope, you will not harm yourself either
With self cheating and self deception
And get defeat to ignorance
Ignorance is our worst enemy lets shoot at it.
Poetry can be written in the ways
You wish to any one by or with
Fixed are no rules though imagery is one
Yet he dullard experts say
But if you can go without them or violating the proscription
Special credit will be found waiting for your creation
Except some understudied none will doubt.
Reverse is the case with a song
Sing it with your deepest sadness
At the end you are bound to get the highest kind of delight.
Take care with no stopping of my blessing
But I have to stop as I need now to go
Hope against hope I wish we would meet soon.
