He wasn't good
neither at details
nor at specifics.
He wanted others
intrude his heart
as he always did.
His raised eyebrows
were interpreted
as arrogant contempt
for others.
He neither tried to prove anything
nor showed off.
Kept his emotions
tranquil with poise!
"indifference and introversion" said critics.
Finding no meaning
in jostle around,
Found solace in contemplating
TRUTH, GOODNESS and BEAUTY.
Some called him
'philosopher'
'utopian',
'idealistic',
'day-dreamer'.
He lacked common sense
when those 'silly things'
were 'sensible' to many.
Who understood him,
were few;
who misunderstood
were many.
'The wise men' of the world
cautioned him,
"be careful, social, practical
and bit diplomatic."
He didn't heed,
as he believed
in being ORIGINAL! SPONTANEOUS!! and NATURAL!!!
He was accused
of being adamant,
easygoing.
Twisting his tongue
he believed in a REALITY-
DYNAMIC and FLUX.
Reluctant
To force his views
on others
defining nothing categorically,
kept his room open,
But only few got KEYS.
Who entered, saw themselves clearly.
'Realized' souls returned ENLIGHTENED.
Who failed to
obtain the keys,
remained in darkness,
ignorant of
heading towards
chaos and misery.
Had he been more careful,
he would have been
AN OBLIVION IN HISTORY.
