Not always very easy

All on a Sudden , A night became unfathomably void..,

and I got surprised....;

The next morning , the door-bell rang uncharacteristically happy and loud,
I got a healthy ,lump-some money-order to become speechless...........!!

Later, A letter made everything clear;

A business group , called " You Dream, We trim",
 has bought the copyright of all possible dreams and the subsequent colours, 

As they wish to dish out some real-life based reel entities........,

 they wrote, they have even bought the copyright of pitch dark colour,
to make

 the night scenes more realistic..........!!

I thought, I got rid of the bitter-sweet old inventories...,

and sincerely I didn't mind;

 As I felt, I got paid more than I should have got .

But the fact that the brand new dreams will be taken away before
I smell them at least thrice , left me endlessly scared ....

I could not relish the "sudden flood of fortune" ..!!
I glued the lucrative envelope back and kept it on my reading table...

I started thinking....about the Future.. ;

I'm still thinking...------

It seems, that "Disposal" is not always very easy ..!!

you weave an eloquent descriptive tale of flights of fancy, promises of dreams unfolding only to find out that the gold was merely faerie dust in one's hands, with incredible insightful imagery of feelings
pleasing rhyme and flow.

a very enjoyable read, profound in its foreboding of careless promises. brilliant write, Anand,
i very much enjoyed this. Thanks for sharing & pen on. *xox*

Wow. Your theme, your construction and your words are all unique! Ah, no matter how much someone buys my dream and trade it for a more powerful or extravagant price, I will not be pleased. What is a man who lives all the better days without his dreams? Tsk. I love this, Anand.

[Anand Sehgal]

I am honored . Thanks a lot dear :)

True indeed! Disposal, is actually a difficult phenomenon. More so for us, the writers. We tend to empathize with what has gone through when anything gets created.

[Anand Sehgal]

yes indeed. We can never forget the "creative labor". thanks Vineet :)

[Joiedevivre]

ha! delicious parody of an all too real, if unreal, phenomenon of our times, selling us invisible clothes and dreamy showreels. Great one!

[Anand Sehgal]

ha ha :) I am becoming a little bit sarcastic these days :)

One should never throw away your dreams regardless of the price.

This is a very unique poem.

[Anand Sehgal]

thanks a lot my friend for reading the piece :)

I loved your whimsical view on writing.

If somebody bought the copyright of my dreams.

Well hell...I might as well die.

[Anand Sehgal]

thank you so much dear. Absurdity struck me all on a sudden !

[Muse]

absurd...with words obscured. ;)
