Existence
The eyes exploded into a flurry of tears; sometimes of celestial bliss; sometimes reeling under the onslaught of hysterical agony,
The nose exploded into a stream of gruesomely sticky mucus; succeeded by violent draughts of passionate air,
The legs exploded into an inevitable fast run; as the striped panther furtively following them came at whisker lengths of snapping distance,
The fingers exploded into a mountain of voracious writing; transforming the sheer magic embedded in them into exquisite calligraphy,
The stars in the cosmos exploded into a fountain of resplendent light; illuminating the ghastly darkness prevailing in all quarters with ravishing light,
The gutter exploded into a whirlpool of gruesomely stinking sewage; diffusing an obnoxiously horrendous stench for boundless kilometers in vicinity,
The Sun exploded into a vicious fireball of flames; charring every evil to minuscule ash in the wrath of its sweltering heat,
The volcano exploded into fulminating lava; diffusing tumultuous heat and agony as it gushed out of the earth's belly like an electric paced rocket,
The tongue exploded into a volley of supremely melodious sounds; engulfing the dolorously morose ambience around with enthralling music,
The mouth exploded into a thunderously loud yawn; languidly expressing its immortal desire to exotically dream and sleep,
The rose exploded into an ocean of scent every dawn; permeating every entity that trespassed in surrounding; with the essence of its mystically alluring aroma,
The fire cracker exploded into a festoon of brilliantly pugnacious sparks; puncturing the
voluptuous carpet of night with unparalleled boisterous fervor,
The photograph exploded into a cavalcade of hidden emotions; putting up a blatantly stoical look in front of its master; sulking within as it was thoroughly incapable of taking birth again,
The ripe and rotten tomato exploded into a shower of fetidly red curry; fomenting all those around to relinquish the last bit of taste they had in their mouths,
The assembly of exorbitantly costly diamonds exploded into a corridor of intransigent shine; made people ogle at their impeccably splendid demeanor for centuries unprecedented,
The indefatigably tired arms exploded into a pool of seductive sweat; trickling down slowly to blend with scorched mud,
The fathomless deep gorge encompassing the entire spell binding mountain range; exploded into an ensemble of eerie echoes; granting Godly status to an inconspicuously tiny sound,
The turbulently rising waves of the colossal ocean exploded into a blanket of tantalizing froth; flooding the life of impoverished entities with tangy spice and the ardor to survive,
The heart imprisoned in the chest exploded into a series of passionate palpitations; profoundly blending with the ultimate love its life,
And every life born on this planet; exploded into newness and energy; exploded into fascinating enchantment and enigma; exploded into the unending battle called
and worshipped as existence.
