beautiful-mind by carlos-barcia An enigma both religion and poetry, origin of both a catechismal uproar. To the layman the poet a madman, To the scientist, he and the devout worthy apropos study of inner secrets. The debate ceaseless - In the brain of man were religion and poetry seeded by God? Or are they aberrations in the circuits within? A flaw that skewed the mind to wander Into unknown realms unseen by the eye? Seeing things that no one sees, Seeing it different, seeing it new, Questioning the seen, the old, the accepted, Questioning the hidden, mystic unanswered illusion. Are some minds prone to bring home truth wrapped in a poem unfurled before the astounded reader? A peep into his world on his cryptic terms. And you think you came out wiser? Think you have decoded him? His poem you will understand But understand it your way. His world is his niche Uniqueness stamped all over it Let him be, let him remain a mystery Unravel not that beautiful mind. September 18, 2009 © Nalini Hebbar/openmind/2009 - all rights reserved |

I'm speechless Nalini ji. Beautiful, thought provoking, seeped in reality and ironies-filled verses with that hint of a respect for the creator. Despite how far we have come, there are areas where we have ways to go ; we can just wonder in awe, like you rightly have ..
Beautiful..
