BITs (Blog of Infinite Thoughts) of Life...: The Sleep Paradigm

Disclaimer and Further Insights:

All the things which get posted here, come from my day to day experiences. Its resemblance to any person living (or dead...mostly dead! Anyway very few really live...) is mostly intentional (If only you can find out that it was meant for you :P).

This blog started out with my ramblings, but somewhere along the way things changed and now I use it only for posting my finished poems (I would like to regard them as poems...even if they're not :P). Someone once told me, "you are in the wrong place, you should be taking photos, and writing poems whom only the retarded can understand". Well, all that just depends on your perspective, isn't it so? Maybe I'm in the wrong place, or maybe this is where I wanted to be ;-).

The Sleep Paradigm

At first you just lay there...thinking about nothing in particular...yawning in between, giving a green signal for sleep to come. And sometimes, just then you hear a constant faint sound in the backdrop of your thougths...the sound of your heartbeat. Your thoughts get a direction and thus starts the battle of wits...between your thoughts and the heartbeat sound...You lie awake, if the thoughts have the undivided attention of your mind...you go to sleep as and when thoughts start losing to the sound...The thing is, eventually it is heartbeats who always prevail...if not today then may be tomorrow or the day after...but what if someday the thoughts are raring to go and the heartbeats give up...have the thoughts really won this time? Who will decide? certainly not you...!!

certainly you don't believe in LAD-> "Life After Death", else you wouldn't be stuck with this Paradigm. ;)
