Words are thoughts

Some times it is words which trigger thought and some times words are thoughts. Words begin as thoughts ,some times originating in a mysteriously random fashion and as we go along the words trigger thoughts taking the whole process forward. The logic is defined in the way words are born ,evolve and metamorphose into thoughts again.

It is funny that I when I began writing the poem given below I had’nt the faintest idea of where I would end up :

Refusal

I know you have said that enough

In the day’s heat and moon’s eclipse

In the horizon I looked far enough

And deep in the tree’s silences

The leaves rustled in the night.

What can you do again and now

Unless art has not left here as yet

And senses still matter to the mind.

In the hollow of my downy back

Your after-being remains as refusal

Senselessness hurts in my fingers

As though my senses are conscious

And are offended deeply by refusal.

Honestly the subject evolved in the interplay of thoughts and words .Words have a flourescence of their own ,independent of the underlying thoughts. As words progress the thoughts keep evolving in a manner entirely unpredictable and intriguing too. The logic of words forbids moving out of pre-determined structures imposing unwarranted control on word flow but poetry enables freedom from them.
