Still Life...

by Padmaja Iyengar-Paddy

I see without seeing,
I feel without feeling,
I think but there is no thought,
All my actions come to naught.

My vision seems to have no focus.
Life seems like some hocus pocus,
Headed in no particular direction,
And lost in a maze of abstraction.

Have I become a still life?
Or is there still some life?

Witty composition, Padmaja. There is a layer of humour in the sorrow. There is still life!
