Whimsical hymns

Writer's picture: Sindhuja Sindhuja

I couldn't grasp today's prompt too well so I wrote a random Rock music inspired piece-


Chipped Paint and crippled thoughts

climb my bedroom wall

they color it grey

there's obvious room for change

but I can't see myself

making the effort of cleaning up

in the smoke screen and the

flickering light, I see

Sunshine yellow and tropical

Might hammer a few nails (Some fails)

a straw hat and hammock

I stay sunk in my bed, a cassock

I'm the indolent Queen

of drawing parallels

but I can't intersect

seeing with actual doing

my determination does not

cross that line (clear as day)

Till then I'll hum a sad lullaby,

like the old mother used to.

She'd curse then, but I see

she was singing to herself

words that almost rhymed

with chipped paint and crippled thoughts
