Entranced is right, trapped is not. <br /><br />Bangles for a Hindu, are not chains but the jingling sounds those make are kind of joyous. <br /><br />Nanka, there is nothing disquiet about it. Don't base your opinions on what trulyfool wrote. <br /><br />To set the record straight for all, I did not write a disturbing poem. Sublime. yes. And I would prefer that it be read again to understand the underlying emotions, which are rather positive than negative.gautami tripathyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04192356825699543613noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13825130.post-14918207847829342902010-12-19T13:53:15.071+05:302010-12-19T13:53:15.071+05:30LOVED this.
