SIMPLICITY
Ashok Niyogi
Simplicity leads to orderly ways.
Imagine stars in complicated intrigue
Turning ellipses into circles and circles into Cyclops.
Imagine the orbits: imagine the turning over at the heels.
Simplicity is representative of vibrant music,
Music that lives on through the days.
Simplicity is a burning log fire
For warming hands and feet
That you must ultimately quench
With the quivering thighs of a wench.
Simplicity is communication without the vicissitudes of language.
Simplicity is virile.
Simplicity is the morning sun,
Contemplative silence, watching the orb of fire dive down into the sea
On sultry impatient evenings of impending violence.
Simplicity is falling in love
Without asking too many complicated questions.
Simplicity is all about counting trees mindlessly,
Engaging in soliloquies with birds and squirrels,
Taking an early morning picture of yours
To show you how you will look when you are a Babushka (1)
Simplicity is a quality rarely found in humans
Because it belongs to animals and trees.
(1) Babushka – Russian word for Grandmother
