Rare

Conceding to a point,
being sorry when out of line
proven wrong when you are,
Saying “I accept.” and it is fine.
Being stupid, like Vir Das said,
being laughed at is not so sad
because you realize what happened was stupid
then another day you are laughing instead.
 
Debating to reach a solution
not testing how high your pitch is,
making a point when it is your turn
using knowledge to make that nincompoop burn.
Quelling the anger that bursts from inside
letting it bleed when the time is right
using the words that make a point
not the slangs which has taken over the fight.
 
Media circulating the facts which state
the truth as it is, whatever it takes
not caring about the right light or wrong light
but just truth coming to light.
Not blaming god for anything amiss
as he does not control the destiny
for if he had known the never-ending bloodshed, misery
he would have made sure the start does not exist.

The hermit sees the time and keeps the happenings in mind. And he offers to tell the tale to those who stop and listen to him from time to time.

Thoughts have made your head dizzy, heart thundering at every moment left or right; a heavy decision, kept you awake at night, hasn't it? And what is wrong with hesitation? Why not take a moment to breathe bow your head, close your eyes breathe loud, if it clears your sight. See the light at the horizon, there will be another one moments lost in forgetting the past, it is a shadow that can't be outrun. You took a decision, didn't you? You consulted your past, right? It has been your enemy; you agreed, but in times, has been your ally. It will be on your shoulders and you will always feel the weight, a shadow; you don't need to outrun, a timeline of how much you have changed.
