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abrogating Maruti Zen as outdated,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.
