The idea behind these writings is to bring a thought out into words in 5 minutes. Here is one of them.
5 Min Scribbles
Thoughts flashing through mind,
Some where gathered by the subconscious,
Most came from fragments reality left behind,
By the storm of life at time of birth began.
Others were dead leaves that once stood with a tree,
Cut down by fantasy of better time, space and uncouth ignorance,
Never ever a thought flashed through my mind,
Where you will keep on running on that hamster’s wheel,
Set by the world around who all in stupidity thrives.

The picture was taken in 1997 in Chennai, India. I was a student at the Pentafour Technologies doing training and studying to get the IBM Mainframe Certification that eventually brought me to United States. We used to hang out at an amphitheater there and sleep was almost nil. From my appearance you can see I never followed any style or fashion trends. I used to wear a pocket watch and the glasses were plain ones I have worn. The trekking shoes were actually big for my legs but that’s how I liked it. By around this time I knew I am done with India. Go find ‘Never Ending Day Dreams’ in PoetryBox.Us to know what those thoughts were.. The moustache was there even after coming to USA. But I shaved it off the day I saw the first grey hair on my face. Hey I maybe ‘Much Older’ but not too old.
