Drama Named Desire*(Originally Titled 'Passion') Poem by indira babbellapati

Drama Named Desire*(Originally Titled 'Passion')

Rating: 3.2


desire hurled
into the wilderness of passion
hits back with the force
of a boomerang
desire burning the core
leaves one exhausted
throws one as a ragged doll
into a nondescript corner
desire flying high
falls flat to ground
like a wounded bird

directionlessly directed

this intiguing drama of desire
has no written script...

'directionless yet directed' Wow Indira... wonderful piece... That is quite relevant to me... But even one falls to the ground, yet it feels lovely to soar high with endless desire... Beautiful...

u may be right, sarvesh. what u suggested sounds logical too. my problem is i couldn't decide which triggers which. moreover, you know by now that what i write is determined by the moment i experience that fleeting emotion that i try to express as closer to its authenticity as possible...thnq for ur suggestion. let me rethink...
