The lights are off

The lights are off
Crickets pitch loud
A perfect backdrop
To write a song

This deep darkness
Unclutters the mind
Gives me wings
And words to fly

The mind is the pen
And memory the board
Composing verses
Of secrets untold

Slowly this small weird disturbing thought will convert the normal thing in your brain into curd, the whole content will become disturbing. But there are certain conditions to be followed 1. The brain should not be at peace when you give it the starter neither should it get cold fast while the fermentation is on. A highly lukewarm milk aka brain is essential. Keep it hot. Put it in casserole , that's better isolated from the influence of any cool air, positive ideas or sensible people. 2. Give it time. Sufficient time to rake past, present, future, dissect behavior of people, what they have done/not done. Once your brain gets that time it will curdle. ...
