'Conscience is the inner voice that warns us somebody may be looking'. H.L. Mencken.
'I' Is for 'Inner Voice'.
Let me name my inner voice.
Will it suffice-?
If I call it a pulsating
monologue,
That shakes, jolts as well as electrifies,
Throbs with eeriness of a mute dialogue.
Litterateurs name it ‘streams of consciousness’,
A flowing shadow forever supremely enthroned,
In the recesses of our private preciousness,
All pervasive, soul stirring, multi-pronged.
Yet, it is a rambling
whole,
Going back and forth into then and now,
Sneaking deep into our journey’s keyhole,
Reliving regrets, peppered with some moments wow.
.....
Truly, man is one of its kind,
Holds the mirror to his own mind.

ReplyDeleteHappy ABCW!
Loved it!
ReplyDeleteOur inner voice sure tells us many things, but seldom do we listen or even care to ponder over it.
Always a pleasure to get your insight on a lovely WW, Uppaljee
That inner voice does niggle a bit and is hard to ignore. Why is it always right?
ReplyDeleteThis was an impressive piece, Uppal! Our inner voice always knows the truth and the right way to go, yet we tend to want to ignore it and choose other options that appear more attractive on the surface, or we want to silence it's reminders of how things have gone astray in the past due to such poor choices. If and when we learn to listen... and to head, then I believe we can truly live in peace and in harmony with what our lives are intended to be.
ReplyDeleteThe inner conscience ...superb Uppalji
ReplyDeleteI think it is the real one who we are, and we can’t escape from it anywhere. I follow my conscience
