Importance of having spare keys

Importance of having spare  keys

Don’t ask me what is a poem

Without meter or rhyme;

What is a poem  bereft of metaphor

Similarly what is a house

Bereft of keys?  stretching further,

What is a house without spare keys?

As eyes  are to face, so are keys to doors

opening and locking the efficient bunch

or singlehanded conducting, rotating,

getting stuck up, if rusted or  number lost:

what ever be the tensed owner or inmate

ends  up with sweating and in search of

a way out passing burden to his watchful wife.

Don’t ask me what was my predicament

when the door was locked from outside,

 the keys were lost or misplaced all  the same;

panic or puzzle weltering you inside:

to be locked inside the room,

whatever be reason, imbecile or mad,

handicapped or challenged, under

strict surveillance of nurse, situation

is grueling and  testing beyond words.

Main key or bunch  the master who is held

By the persona, is the real master trying;

Question arises, who is lord  door or key

Me standing outside.  Spare giggling on.
