let my poemlette take you on

let that eclipse languish
in its own place of choosing
I will take a detour
increasing my velocity
I was never asked
why should I be a part of it
mere objects those,
I am alive & I thrive
this rambling will go one
if I don't stop it

here I leave loose ends for you
to decide what path to take
isn't it true, we like to choose
let my poemlette take you on
while I do take a detour

The second part was equally powerful as the first.
"here I leave loose ends for you
to decide what path to take
isn't it true, we like to choose".
I liked these the most.

My favorite part:

"I was never asked
why should I be a part of it"

This is a common theme of modern life.

Very powerful. I like the "loose ends" line.

"leave loose ends for you..." was such a nice usage.Enjoyed reading this one.

Another breathtaking piece gautami, very powerful and thought provoking. Why is it that we are not asked more often whether or not we want to be a part of something?

Nicely done. I like the last line, hinting that we don't all have to be inspired down the same path.

I'm struck by the way this seems to be a rambling stream of consciousness. At the same time, it could be a very cleverly constructed piece...
The message is great.
