An Open Letter to Rinty



I have been walking the path since the dawn of centuries,
In my cosmos, that Universe that’s inside me!!!
It houses stars, constellations, living planets, and a speck of a black hole too.
I bid you welcome to that Universe that’s inside of me!!!

Are the Fates chiding and cajoling to get together?
Is it’s me that you still find?
This grotesque ogre slouched by the mid-day fiery lanes
Living his own mistake, stooping low, is the pose,
Living in someone else’s prison, whence will I go?
To you, you and you Rinty, I say three times over!!!

My lakes, oases, snow-capped mountains, and lush meadows
Which one of them houses you, soothes your soul?
My cosmos, my universe, is still very much alive, not yet has connived
I bid you welcome to that “fair world” that’s inside of me!!!

Is a Good Samaritan tying us in a neat bow through time?
When I hear he has unlocked Time, I think he must be Divine!!!
Never saw knowledge and power go hand in hand
His naive battle born out of eternal ashes that bind
Let this nightmare end with me in your arms, hidden in your strands of hair
Wherefore to? To you, you and You, Rinty, I say three times over!!!
