Whisky Tango Foxtrot!


Who?
Who possesses you?
Who killed you?
Who owns your soul?

Why?
Why did you fly?
Why were you alive?
Why doth death don a flirtatious mole?

Where?
Where are your eyes?
Where be the million smiles?
Where is the Lady who found her dole?

When?
When did you fence your happy sublime?
When did you devil with dine?
 When did you sway 'pon gallows pole?

Whisky.
Who stole my peg?
Where stopped my dreadful tread?
What swooped into this blighted hole?

Tango.
What did you say?
When you looked dismay.
"Would life ever find its true blue goal?"

Foxtrot.
Would you ever live for once?
Where the light doth, melancholy shuns.
When the heavens, your elegance extol.

  1. Who? Whoa! One letter different. One feeling apart.
    Feels nice to be committed to something, no? So what if somebody else sees it as just a word/question.

    1. Dear Anon..Agree on the Who-Whoa feelings apart statement. But on a personal note...don't exactly feel nice being 'committed' to something ;) seems like being bound in shackles.

      I in fact think that the whole idea of Commitment should be eradicated and replaced by 'Interested' permanently. Commitment forces one to do something...Interest involuntarily makes one do whatever it is that the person is interested in ;) Catch my drift ?

  2. Commitment is but a consequence of one's permanent "interest" to something. Taking commitment Out from interest or intention is like wanting rain without the muck.

    Don't be hating.. :)

    1. You see that's exactly what I am trying to bring forth. The myth of 'Permanence' or 'Permanent Interest', is where the problem lies.

      Why can't people accept the fact that 'X' may like 'Y' to bits, right now but may not like that same person say, after 1 month/week/year. Why does X have to write in blood about his 'faithfulness' to Y FOREVER!? It's stupid. But you know what the funny part is? X and Y both know that it's not permanent, their commitment, yet they still fight, teeth and bones to drag it out.

    2. Hmmm... Maybe you should write about that in your next blog.
