Let us Be Water for Once
For once leave aside your God
& be one yourself
A dimensioned God
For once be obscured and powerless
rend apart your intellect
Let importance lose reason for once
& to this atonal rhyme lend your life
for once
and embark along in symphony with me
Let us Be Water for Once
For once dismiss the ornate obeisance
For once unplug your pecuniary pride
& don't be good or bad for once
and stand unlearned and mutable for once
Forget your civilization
Forget your voluntarism for
once
Stop singing your psalms for once
And for once be reclusive & stand,
Stand thankless, uninspired, unmotivated,
unjustified,
unopposed, unadorned and artless in the
fierce copper Sun.
For once flow naked towards the horizon
Deciphering new punctuations
Walk on three limbs for once
and start afresh from nought
Discard the written hallucinations
Decay the decorum for once
Disprove the caricatures
of Shakespeare's seven ages
& breathe, breathe a breath without
your dignity
For once if only we could peek beyond the
borders of thought
& look ahead, ahead towards love,
death, life & water for once.
If only man could be water for once
Sans regard and reputation
Sans humanity and domination
end would no longer be forbidden &
untold
& He could have gravity as his
pitiless God
He could be still, merciless
and fore-long
As a colourless matter, he could rule and
shine
& could end his timeless envy with
time.
