Open thy skull,
let’s see what thou are made of
open thy skull,
to “touch” thou tender laugh

In hand – hammer & chisel,
ready to strike with a gentle stroke
moving steadily little by little
and “ka-chink”! I hear my work!

Sculpting & curving a shapeless “stone”
and “crack”, bit by bit I see thou release
to my delight I meet thy angel-vision
always smiling facial bones!

Ah! The contour of thy frame
molded so perfectly and with ease
behind mahogany membrane
softly I follow to the centerpiece.

The breathing labyrinth like brain
storehouse for such lovely thoughts
volumes of knowledge chiseled therein
carried and engraved on thy psyche.

I now reach and scratch thy brain
very gently, with thoughts of sorts
in the hope to absorb forever therein
to be transferred to my beating heart.

P.S.
Just a note to add Paathshala & ChatRoom to my list of recently watched movies.
Pathshala just OK… an important social message,
and a tear here and there but …
ChatRoom was fascinating and intriguing. Nicely portrays the mindset of the online environment, the people who get hooked up and the parents who don’t know how to handle it, and the confused minds. I bought the DVD in the hope to watch and learn something from it with my teenage son. BUT … some scenes are a bit too gruesome – and I would not want him to see it.
[I do realize he might have watched similar scenes online].
