Fly away to the Strange

(Its been 8 months since my last blog, but it just happened that I wrote a few poems but just could not either conclude them or fill the spices in the , middle or just could not start. And suddenly today i just thought I would take the bits and pieces from each of those unfinished poems and try to sew them together to make this poem. PLEASE DO COMMENT , IT would be APPRECIATED)

Strange is the path to love,
A path uncertain , obstacles on the way ,
Is it just about being ready to consummate ,
Or about being there every moment,
Every minute , every hour, every day.

Its all a farce, a never ending mirage,
Looking into your eyes my darling,
Love is at best a distant second,
Lust is all I get to see.

Strange is the path to such happiness,
Relationships to keep , Relationships to break,
Making a new path, new unforeseen way,
A Life changing instance it could be,
Or may even take a life away.

A drop of creamy white is birth,
A drop of viscous black is death,
And then you have a sea of brine,
To outpour during work, sex and play.

Strange is the path to such a life,
No directions to go by ,
No rules to go by, no absolute way,
Just trusting your instincts,
And living in your imaginary way.

A choice is to be made,
Whether to be confined to boredom,
Or to the backwaters of ecstasy ,
Or better still a life which is obsolete ,
Of absolutely nothing

Strange is the path to make money,
You need some to make some,
After all anything multiplied to zilch is zilch,
But then you may end up with a honeycomb,
Saving one penny at a time.

Lighting a matchstick in a wildfire ,
Drinking a glass of water under the sea,
Using an air cylinder to sky dive ,
All you want is a speck of sand from the desert.

I want to jive , I want to dive,
I want to try , try to fly
Fly away from love
Into calm and tranquility,
Fly away from happiness,
Into peace and serenity,
Fly away from life,
Into darkness and the unknown
Fly away from money,
Into satisfaction and harmony .

Fly, fly away onto the horizon,
Fly fly away into oblivion
Fly, fly , Fly away to the Strange
