Mere Readers, Repeaters Are We Poem by Aniruddha Pathak

Mere readers, repeaters are we

Mere readers and writers we are,
Tell me, who's found a new letter?

Seers we are of same stars in sky,
Use same waters recycled nigh,
The same waves of vibes on us vie.

To learn same things we've strived so far,
Mere readers and writers we are.

In span of inch world of words vast,
Same old flag we flutter half-mast,
In palm whole sea, in wink time past.

Eons it takes for a new star,
Repeaters of sameness we are.

Drowning in sea of vast sameness,
Called in when to create oneness,
We end up in dull bashfulness!
