NOTHING HAPPENS
In one of those lousy moods am I
I want to write, nothing happens, I try
I look at the screen, keep sipping coffee
When coffee is over I attack the toffees
Looks as if I am bribing that hidden elf
To pour some words out of my inner self
I sit for a minute, 5 minutes I walk
Journey to fridge, to myself I talk
Such days there is no hearty output
Only food in my tummy ingested as input
What a mad creature appears my nature
Like an undeveloped brain premature
Refuse to switch to some other activity
Stay fixed to the screen as if in captivity
My workers though wanting, do not dare
They are peeping at me to show as if they care
I heard them say she is a ‘Pagol’
There is no one in house who her can control
If ‘dada’ was there she might have budged
She will stay fixed and we so exhausted to trudge
Should we set her dinner she is looking drowsy
Fools it is when drowsy, out comes my best poesy.
