The Recital Part II

Pondering over 'Prose versus Verse'

As the participants recited AND narrated

Their feelings & experiences,

I started listening to them,

Jolting myself from the lip-synced mute

I'd imposed on their words,

As they'd read out their experiences,

I'd exult with a 'Touche!' & 'Ditto!'

Each time they'd share emotions

That I'd bumped into, rolled over, jostled with

A million times,

But faced, spoken to, never.

Emotions I'd always considered 'trivial',

Too 'trivial' to be written down.
