Inspiration



What is inspiration???

A bolt of lightning,
pilfered from a
mental storm,
igniting the lackadaisical mind.
The poem that I write,
attempting to depict
the proverbial lightbulb,
hanging over your head.

An idea, in a moment
when you have no inkling
of what to do, a conscientous idea
amid the profusion
of slovenly thinking.

Inspiration: a ship,
audaciouslyembarking into the unknown,
exploring the realm of
"outside the box".
A mutiny from the usual thing,
deviation from the serenity and prudence,
when you confiscate the pedestrianism,
a hot-headed new undertaking.

A rankle, at the back of the mind,
pushing in new directions, with
encouragement and rebukes alike.
