The Other Side

There is always An other side to a story Good, bad Right, wrong Known, Unknown Understood, misunderstood Questioned, unquestioned Answered, unanswered Is not a matter of concern As much is the realization that Truth is not always What it appears to be For many a times When you get to the other side of the fence Perceptions change Assumptions get challenged Beliefs get disrupted Myths get destroyed The truth just ceases to be And what emerges May not have been there to begin with

Lost in Translation

What starts as an exceptionally good idea turns out to be a damp squib. There is nothing wrong with the idea though. It has all the makings of the one that stands out.  However what it is meant to be and what it becomes are world apart. Call it the execution gap or inability to take the idea to its logical conclusion, something surely seems amiss. Something which no one accounted for or thought it worthwhile to make a note of. Perhaps the idea itself is so overwhelming that failure looks a distant reality. The adrenaline rush and the enthusiasm to put such ideas in action at times results in turning a blind eye to common sense. What remains thereafter are just remains of day difficult to make sense of an already scattered in bits and pieces which were lost in translation .
