Random

The pickled feeling.
Of joy and scratches.
Marked and haunted.
Having enough pens in your bag.

Nothing is blue under the doorframe.
Watches the right lane.
Turning carousel.
And puppets all around.

Blundering feelings.
Reaching through the screen.
Draining all the way through.
Footprints at the bottom.

Blue frog feelings.
Apples tuned to daffodils.
Gleeful fans.
And checkered rugs all over.

I have enough random thoughts in my head.
To power the

Random Thoughts 6: Nighttime

I lie awake at night
Thinking of the loves 
And opportunities for intimacy 
I have missed

A Simple Random Act of Kindness

A simple random act of kindness 
Can go a long, long way ... 

It was just the other day 
A woman kissed me on the cheek. 
She had totally caught me 
By surprise. 
Who would kiss this freak. 
But then the tears 
Began to flow. 
My knees, they felt so weak. 
I had almost forgotten

Random Thoughts

When random thoughts are bombarding a mind,
Cohesiveness among them is hard to find.
Metaphors and symbols just like in one’s dreams,
Even what is seen, is not what it seems.

One must not resist, just let the thoughts flow.
Look for the patterns and see what they show.
They show the direction, but rarely the conclusion,
There isn’t much reason, just

Living finite lives in the infinite

Perhaps in wanting to understand 
We must abandon wonder
Whether willingly for the sake of rigour and strength 
Or unwillingly surrendering to the unexplained 
In those bylanes in order to explain 
We study, observe dissect 
Practise reductionism to the last atom 
After that when the head rises up again 
Devoid of wonder, innocent lost 
It sees

Life is a lottery

We live in a matrix of unpredictability,
your fate randomized at best
by numbers shouted out by a bingo caller.

B for birth marks, qualities and defects.
I for inherent or sudden health issues.
N for near death experiences altering your life.
G for grand events that bring you happiness.
O for obituaries and the inevitability of death.

Random Thoughts 5: Ants

Does God mourn 
for every ant
that was crushed 
before it was able to carry its own weight?

Random Thoughts 4: Dandelions

I apologize
For all the dandelion necks
I have snapped

Random Thoughts 3: Night

The solitude of nightfall
Is more bearable 
Than companionship in the light

Random Thoughts 2: Her

When I saw her
I became aware
Of the Earth's gravity
And my mass tethering my body
To this rock in space

Random Thoughts 1: Face wash

I wash my face twice a day
Once vigorously
As if I am exercising demons
Residing in my pores
And once gently
In circular, sweeping movements
Like I am washing away the crust of tears
That have come to settle on my cheeks

Seeing Spots

Physicists may say,
'Random is not truly random,
it only appears to be,'
but another theory goes,
(according to me)
'Not so when playing games of chance,'
(and I have done the sums)
for this experiment logic states,
'The odds in favour are 5 to 1.'
As I spy with my little eye,
seeing spots and counting dots
on a regular die,
(these don't go to 11)

In this tiny corner of random order, where life weaves its thin thread

In this tiny corner of random order, where life weaves its thin thread,
There exists a vast universe of chaos, a sea of darkness and mystery that surrounds us,
All people feel that chaos, a silent presence that shadows the edge of consciousness,
But some hide from it, building invisible walls and refusing to look at it.
