Suddenly the straight roads take a turn that’s not right. And you are left alone. In a lurch. The life that was hitherto simple and sober starts to turn in all angles. Which again, are not right. Everything… every event starts having an undercurrent of something deeper… maybe darker… and you wonder whether to let it be… or work it out. And either way you know you’re in for a gamble. What do you do now?
By now the innocent smile starts to curve in a way it never did. And you start being proud of your hyde-signs. And the potion that the doctor gives you turns the tide to the higher side. And it’s happening everywhere. Things move fast and randomly and yet fall into place. Only the place isn’t right either. Because now, it’s meaning has changed. So has the context.
The fire has been lit. And now it doesn’t matter who did it. And you aren’t a firefighter either. Now, what do you do? There’s no turning back. Life is a one-way road, remember? Do you fight and find your way back through this maze of right and wrong, good, bad and ugly? Or have you been converted to a permanent denizen of this place? Do you wake up and see the light? Or do you continue to sleep coz the thrill of the dream has you completely engulfed in it? Or do you wake up and close your eyes, and pretend to pretend you never saw it all?
There is life on the dark side of the moon too. Ever been there?
