Poem : FREE WHEEL VERSES | Journey Through the Chaos and Clarity

Free Wheel Verse-1

So, you try and tell through your words and your drawings,
be as helpful as you could be
to do what was needed to be done,
choosing the right deed between the wrong and right,
being in the sort of state,
always being what they say,
recognizing a sort of beckoned acknowledgement of thoughts
and beliefs,
just to be on the safer side of things,
making a relation to the unconnected events in your mind.
A point in the wide random sky that stretches until the limitless
horizon,
thinking of the day that separated the day from the night
through the fright of knowing things,
unnecessary and uneven,
that people think before they become the secret themselves,
a lost toy in the hands of their lost master
who was a little brat actually,
before making sense of the resonating beliefs and non-resonating
facts,
incapable of the concepts of reality,
in the sense that the only thing that matters in this whole wide
world
is being a person who is capable to think.
Deciding to declaim the accord that only a wise old man can
drink with arrogance,
unnecessary beliefs of the uncertain
and the people who more often than not decided to belong to a
certain period in past,
which created a certain havoc on present,
giving just too much thought to the unprecedented and old
fashioned beliefs,
regarding the things that don’t mean a shit…

 


“Free Wheel Verse-1” is an exploration of the complexities of human thought and the often bewildering journey of making sense of our beliefs and actions. This poem delves into the challenges of navigating between right and wrong, the randomness of our thoughts, and the pressures of conforming to societal expectations.

When I penned “Free Wheel Verse-1,” I was captivated by the idea of how we attempt to communicate and express our deepest thoughts and beliefs. We use words and drawings, striving to be as helpful and clear as possible, trying to do what needs to be done. It’s a constant battle to choose the right path, to do the right deed amidst the chaos of conflicting choices.

In the poem, there’s a sense of always being in a particular state, conforming to what others expect or say. This acknowledgment of thoughts and beliefs is a safety mechanism, a way to stay on the “safer side of things.” It’s about making connections between seemingly unconnected events, creating a point in the vast, random sky of our minds that stretches to the limitless horizon.

There’s a poignant reflection on the nature of knowledge and fear. The line “thinking of the day that separated the day from the night through the fright of knowing things” captures the anxiety that comes with understanding. Sometimes, knowing too much or the wrong things can be frightening and unnecessary, turning people into secrets themselves – lost toys in the hands of a lost master, an analogy for how we can feel when overwhelmed by our own thoughts.

The poem also critiques the resonance of beliefs and facts. It points out that many people cling to outdated, non-resonating beliefs, incapable of grasping reality. The only thing that truly matters in this wide world is the ability to think independently. There’s a call to declaim the accord – the agreed-upon norms that only the arrogant wise old man can drink, representing the stubborn adherence to unnecessary and uncertain beliefs.

“Free Wheel Verse-1” challenges the reader to think about the impact of clinging to old-fashioned beliefs and the havoc it wreaks on the present. It urges us to reconsider the significance we place on outdated ideas, encouraging a more thoughtful and open-minded approach to life.

Writing this poem was a way for me to confront these ideas head-on, to question the constructs that shape our thoughts and actions. It’s an invitation for readers to reflect on their own beliefs, to recognize the randomness and complexity of their thoughts, and to strive for a more thoughtful existence.
