Let those unsettling thoughts burn peacefully
Ashes will seem to be gloomy in fading light
Waiting for cover of night to satiate the embers
Dying fire of rage will finally surrender tonight
Vision will cut through ephemeral existence
Walking away from the plunders of vanity
No forceful mastery over ways of chosen life
Tawny canvas absorbs the disconsolate tears
Wiped illustrations of melancholy fade slowly
No false notes are exchanged by unsettled heart
Confusion does not beckon anymore a soul
Darkness comprehends a silent communication
Sonorous truth echoes across the cosmic dome
Settled ashes carried away by conscious winds
~Amitav
I’m glad I returned to read that lovely first line again, it has soothed a part of me that has been railing against the machine that is our world…
