voice of silence

You are in a beer garden; they talk to you, talk with you, talk after you, talk before you-politics, sport, weather, philosophy....clearance sales...everything. The age old heliumball melts a bit further upon the horizon, birds on springtime trees sing oblivious of everything, the river water beside replies to every whisper of the oncoming breeze, you sip a mouthful of your pint consuming the harmony of tchaiskovsky in the background. You think you are there, they think you are there. You are not, you are with a lady whom you saw yesterday, anxious and sweating; and starting to hear voices while she is born deaf......
you are amazed..
some things at some times actually make you feel , that may be there is a unshaved guy upstairs, just fiddling about......

Nice imagery here.

Also like the irony in this part,

"You think you are there, they think you are there. You are not, you are with a lady whom you saw yesterday, anxious and sweating; and starting to hear voices while she is born deaf......"

Your peices are sure difficult to interpret at the first go... but when they fall in place, it just fuses into understanding, which again is only my perception...

chay,
have answered that dear.

:a:,
thanks, it was exactly the way i felt at that time.

aradhita,
true, i agree but havent i always insisted that my words unfortunately need a special emotion to be understood in entirety.perhaps someday i could be be more plain or perhaps not :))
dont ask me the drink, some cheap danish beer i think...:)

Aradhita said...

No its nice the way you word your thoughts...sometimes people tell me its what you write about...but mostly I think it is how you write about 'whatever' you write about. That is what makes all the difference.

Gawd! That could be a marketing funda, I just said up there!
