~ Out of the Box… ~
☆
I kept drawing
measured lines
all my life
standard lines
systematic lines
approved lines
Yet nothing worked
Despite intense efforts
—no identity emerged
neither personal
nor public
In frustration
I etched
crooked
awkward
senseless lines
without aim
without purpose
here and there
And suddenly,
lo and behold,
a miracle happened
I became a celebrity
Critics stood stunned
they said—
What a masterpiece
such craftsmanship of
out-of-the-box thinking
has never been seen before
I stood confused, bewildered
lines
frames
boxes
out-of-the-box
when did I ever
think of all this
at all…?
