A Surreal Moment

in the midnight hours my soul abruptly taps me on my cheek into wakefulness all around me faint shadows of increasing complexities and absurdities grow larger than life and present a shadow play on the surrounding blank walls i let my mind footloose how many flyovers to ease the congestion! my feet inadvertantly lead me into the southwest balcony from where i see the stars losing their shine the moon fast waning an occasional light dotting the vacant inky highway and the landscape freezes into a surreal silhouette 06sep2009 01.20hrs
