      Epigraph

      tragedies create the Art and thus it makes an Artists in the process. We use memories, pain, sadness, happiness all kind of emotional moments to create something of our own. A writer must be a great reader, I had started with Karl Marx, I found the lost revolutionary man inside me, to the darkness of Sadegh Hedayat, twilights of Dostoyevsky and the internal fight of Muktibodh.. a few lost words of Franz kafka, and movies of Tarkovsky. 

      from mythologies to Neitzsche's Zarathustra, I found the lost man. 

      from pyschology to Sociology, from frankfurt school to the fiction of Aldous Hexely. 

      My poems contain everything that has happened and will happen; there is no specific word to define it. 

      I have felt the pain of centuries in the words of Legends, and tried to put an Original work of mine. Hope You will find it worth of a thought. 

      Acknowledgements

      this book is dedicated to my parents Sweta Sharma and T.R. Sharma. 

      and to all my ancestors who had  struggled for survival. 

      and to my love of life. 

      Tribute to MacCandless

      Into the wild

      to find the truth,

      the happiness

      which lies

      beneath

      this white snow,

      free-roaming animals

      far away from that world

      a world of lies

      and false hope

      and materialism

      where they live on hope

      die fulfilling it

      not living it,

      I am McCandless's soul

      a free bird

      in this vast sky

      I have known no home

      this world is my home

      all these people are family

      so the plants and animal

      I am running
