The writings on the stone were duly made
Sometimes by those who cared other times by those who read
I for one wondered if they stared from below and read
Am sure a bloke or two wished that the amateur writers drop dead
Ain’t it funny that we can’t reveal ourselves in life
And our near and dear carry the legacy with our death
Ah how now we wish atleast death help the living see the truth
But seriously
Its just a stone and bone ,for what its worth
Hey don’t curse me for pointing out the humour
Who won’t laugh when the dead virgin has a stone
Saying “here lies our girl who did the world many a kind acts”
So if you are like me,you don’t want to die with your lies
You make sure to do the writing for I intend to sleep in my grave :)

Death Thou Shalt Die...
It's not death, but the waking that kills us...
Nice Nice
this poem was prompted after reading an epitaph
"Told you i was sick"
Survive your sickness
With fetishness for wellness
Be well in every way
Hah! What are you reading these days, if i may belatedly ask?
Books...now thats very healthy discussion :D
Besides Huxley's essays and kunderas's the unbearable lightness of being...also juggling confessions of an economic hitman and collection of short stories by Russian authors
There is something deeply moving about the way Russians wrote!!
How about you?
Till date, I’ve never read any buk cover 2 cover. Cos smthng unknown refers me to smthng else and tat to smwhere elz…much like ur blog title… spiralling down
Hah! Enuf…right now, my mind is mocked by vast ignorance of sound arguments against the ghost of globalisation…animated by Pankaj Mishra’s Temptations of the West…kind of a ghostbuster of India’s romance with uncontrolled globalisation and guarded red tape
Thanks for making me know about John Perkins. Jus to perk him up, here’s another titanic thinker…David Korten’s When Corporations Rule the World
Tress@ (without the s :D)sounds very contemporary reading choices...ah the motif of advices painted pretty by reliability, yeah no wonder my read-ING list,at any given moment,vouches for at least 5 books :D
When Corporations Rule the World---ah so its about now :P right?right!
