Therez this road in front of me......tall shady trees in front of me.....lined on both sides of the road....like matchsticks...watching me.....by and by........and im marching down this road ...in this morose chilly winter night......half the streetlights wont work......dilli hai yaar....
Its way too cold here...but the leaves on these trees have managed to retain their true color.....green...they are green...green like the moss that grows on rocks along flowing rivers...green like In the folklores symbolizing nature, and its embodied attributes........namely life, fertility, and rebirth....
In some it denotes witchcraft....but that’s a very insignificant issue for us....We, who have grown cultures that have thrived on paleopaganism......where the real religion actually grew in the villages...the rural-dwellers....and just came 2 be reflected in the towns and cities.....like the reel of film.....capturing someone else's works in a frame.....
Aren’t we humans strange.....everything that goes unexplained has got to be worshipped in this darn country....and hey....some centuries back. when science was not a conceivable notion.....everything had 2 be unexplained....Those over-pretentious
self-explanatory power-hungry persons, who didn’t know any shit about the storms....the weather...the moon....but knew they could make anything up...and force d rest 2 gobble it down in one great holy gulp ....surely no 1 would be wise enough (or interested enough) to contradict.....
hence is born a priest...preaching the words of the Big Gods, who whisper secrets in his ear....who have made him their personal choice of a counselor...who share their big plans for the world with him.....the gods need me, he tells the people...they fucking need me....
And we all listen...we’ve no other way of denying.....
He was our saviour......he was the messengers of our gods.....
No wait.....then he was god himself.....!
Ignorance can be such bliss.....
And till this day we’ve done exactly what the goats do........
What do goats do.....??....wow.....that’s a tough one......
They eat the grass...they eat anything actually.......tell them the lethargic watchman’s shoes are grass.....they won’t ask questions...they’ll munch on it very much the same way.....
In the same way as us.....tell us that the rock is supernatural......its from d kingdom of d gods...and there’ll be hordes of people queuing up....with children and whatnots’....to witness a spectacle what is not there...and yet it is....... blind faith.....(and blind stupidity it is called)......
Anyways....i am an atheist.....(makes it easier to consume all the religious rubbish and manage to survive in this hallucinating world) ......and this is turning out to be a rather long way to home.......
I need to switch ....... too much of blindness here......what’s with the streetlights... Damn
