Ahead of his time
                                 Given an option whether he would choose
                                 Computing or English Literature,
                                 his preference was for the former,
                                 he wanted to be much ahead of his times,
                                 since he aspired to be in tune with the
                                 technology of his times,
                                 abrogating Maruti Zen as outdated,  
                                 driving the Sumo, he construed,                 
                                he was much  ahead of his times,       
                                accruing wealth in the bank,
                                finding the loopholes of how to
                               save his tax, he was ahead of his times,
                                when his new paint smelling wardrobe
                                was replete  with latest garments, he knew,
                                he was ahead of his times,
                                he wanted to be  in the  first row,  
                                in the cinema theater,
                                he was much ahead of his time,
                               trekking on the mountain, on top,   
                               Viewing the humanity below,
                               he felt he was much ahead of his time.
                               When he discovered many theories
                               in the lab he was much ahead of time,
                               when his seven year old son asked him
                               why he did not have faith in God,
                               no answer, for he was far, far, far
                               ahead of his time.
