The Hitchhiker.
I want a lift,
Not on a vehicle on the roads;
Not the elevator or escalator,
For an effortless journey upwards.
But one that would place me on the higher rungs of
The social ladder of the elite and the enlightened.
From there, I will look not only down,
But also look down upon the point, where I stood.
The pleasure of slighting the way I was slighted,
That of kicking those, whose hands I held,
As stubs of waste in the street, is a premier posture.
Owning a vehicle without a destination, is outlandish;
Reaching one's destination without a vehicle, is orienting.
What one owns is immaterial; where one reaches,is inspiring.
How one reaches where one wants
to, is intriguing.
A down cast view of one’s original placement
Does the decisive round of what one is capable of.
Hitchhiking and heckling, hit the iron when it boils hot.
The ripe maxim of life is to get the best from others'lot.
P.Chandrasekaran.
