"My Life These Days"

In this chilly winter
Everyday I leave my quilt at 6 AM
And go out to brave the cruel freezing wind
which cover my face with unwanted kisses
To attend coaching classes
Where I recite memorised budhhist koans
On the way to becoming IAS
Seems half-way I'll achieve salvation
Have left ad-hoc lectureship
Will soon leave Income Tax Inspectorship
Have become Devdas without
Chandramukhi and Paro's fellowship.
And more agonising than any thing else
You have become pretty elusive.
