Un-Limiting the Sky

The sky opens up to us, by and by
Even with someone or the other
Staring at it at some point of the day,
(It’ll get to know light years later, it’s alright!)
Some squinting for inspiration, some with disappointment,
Some with hope, some at child-like wonder.
The sky is a shy, breathing being, you know.
Who knows what secrets it keeps on the other sides?
Do you think it is two dimensional?
It never perceived itself that way, you know?
The changing colours are only a peek into her person’s aspects, you know.
It’s constantly unfolding,
Like a neatly-folded piece of origami
Sky’s the limit, you all say?
I wonder whom the sky looks up to
For inspiration.

The Dance of Shadows

There are days
When I walk out of the studio,
Disappointed with my performance,
Because today fear, not dance,
Made me finish the steps on time.
I can't mug up steps at the flick of a finger, you see.
I admit I have been lazy about self-practice.
I bet no one dances as beautifully
As I do in my visualizations
And some days I do amaze myself
As I perform the routine.
But when fear cripples me,
Paralyses my arms and limbs,
I wince at the instructor's polite rebuke
I knew it was coming.

The song is replayed,
Batchmates cheer
I wake up
My passion frees me
As I leap into the routine with a
5! 6!, and 5, 6, 7 AND. . . !!



P.S  And you thought your fears don't fear you?

Infinity

For science and art 
Are but two interpretations
Of the one infinity
Called the Universe.
