Acclimatization Poem by RAJ VIKRAM

Bottom less depths, invisible summits
the world as we see parades
its paradoxes before
our awestruck eyes and puzzled being.

Being in consonance with the
variances on offer is the hurdle
that will keep coming up
if one decides to proceed with life.

Acclimatization is no stroll
it is like an ascent into rarefied
heights without the requisite gears.
But acclimatize one must.

Gear up one must, to adapt
to the delinquent ways of merciless
life that will mock by shifting
the goal posts at its will.

Acclimatization is what life is
all about, there is no such thing
as immutable here, just an inexorable
process of irreversible damages.

Transform on and on and be
just what the time demands.
Accede to time and acclimatize to until the culmination without fulminations.
