I write when...

I write when
words swarm like ants
and start peeping out
of the nest of mind.

I write when
life becomes a sizzling summery land,
where words would be
fresh, tender sprouting greenery
to offer me solace.

I write when
the meaninglessness
and monotony of life prick me,
where I try to make a pattern
out of the patternless words;
a pattern out of the patternless life.

And I write when
I don't know what to do
but hurl words around

just to be another little 'babbling word'
hidden under the myriad bits of ugly words!
