“IF YOU DON’T EAT YOUR MEAT YOU CAN’T HAVE ANY PUDDING”?
(Another Brick in the Wall Part II/Pink Floyd/Roger Waters/1979)
CONSCIOUSNESS-ANALOGUE
“Please sir, I want some more”.
Lines reverberate with the passion of the inner flame of intuitive imagination
But man is too distant from another man
He cannot hear the call nor can he know the wisdom immaculate
He is a prisoner in his own mind fighting at odds end the life
Strings are dancing like time talking to the self
Lost innocence of the humming bees churn the ocean from its vault
Magnificent paradise are lit with the inner glow of the child
He is the thinking man’s rationale of truth
A ray of the sun on the vertebrae of matter
The spirit must come forth and hold its destiny
Or there is no need to repeat the mantric lines
You are, therefore, forever like a bud of the inviolate rhythm of the flower
Watching from a point outside this creation
Falsehood falls when light pierces the strange doctrine of equality in things
Neither I want nor I will, but bless you all so you may find the peace.
– Joy Roy Choudhury
