Palms' Silhouette

Posted by Picasa
Silhouette of Palm Trees
A silhouette is a view of an object or scene consisting of the outline and a featureless interior, with the silhouetted object usually being black.


Silhouette of my soul

The dark mountain behind me looks so different
For every time I look it’s changed
My soul has the same identity
For when I think I have finally got it under control
The silhouette changes

The mountain starts it day dark with a siloute that defines it
My soul is always in dark
The mountain gets more defined as sun comes up
My soul is always dark
The mountain end up dark again
The silhouette changes

My soul starts it day
Always hung-over from last days confusing silhouettes
so I begin clawing my way out of the deep hole
Even in sleep my soul is confusing
I dream about things that always seem in the dark

Then one of my silhouettes comes up and shines all the darkness away
Bring a smile to day that started with a mountain of undefined silhouettes
I can hold this in place as long as I need it, because I do…always
So when the darkness approaches to make the mountain undefined
It silhouette lost again my silhouette of counterfeit dies a death everyday
In comes the dark

Drunk again with so many silhouettes of my soul that want to be
I fall down under my mountain of darkness in a silhouette
My soul surrounded by light, but the face of my soul in the dark
Hidden the truth of what all these moments mean
So I pass out drunk on confusion for the next day will be the same

The silhouette of my soul

This picture was taken at Kadwad village, from the Paddy fields, just after the sunset. It did rain a bit after a few seconds of clicking this picture. The location was the venue for the yearly feast of a local diety, and the whole village was taking part in the festivities.
I didnt know the picture would turn out like this, and God knows what else can a Nokia N-70 mobile-cam can do...

A beautiful photo, pity I could not read the poem, the print was not sufficiently clear for my old eyes.
