Only when everything goes well.... Radhamani sarma

 

CPC  JUNE  2022

 

Only when everything goes well….

 

It is her  inward pain, her  silent brood,

Irreconcilable mood  and make,

like  the rotten wound  not  bandaged,

undressed, uncared  and unhealed;

 

days  and hours  of solitary  paining,

her struggles  and exploitation voiceless,

only viewing morning’s caw and peck

in its mechanical world  of open balcony;

 

sudden wisdom or realization dawns upon,

a saying within herself, repeat, repeat, repeat,

only when everything goes well…

all around will  go well,  smooth  and soft

 

like  porridge well cooked  down inside

throat crave  and thirsty for quick remedy,

your gulp  and swallow  for aches in and out,

only when everything goes well …..

 

you set right the stopped needles,

run clock, battery in watch, recharge cells,

but  cannot set right certain people,

until Time  THE PANACEA intervenes!

 

Along  your morning drink, coffee or  tea

You mix  this coinage, your inward pill,

Inculcate within yourself, oft and on,

Only when everything goes well …..

 

Leave the rest to your appendage,

Conclusion to your worldly image.
