A Big question mark by Ashok Sharda
Seeing isnt possible
Without an eye
A touch
A sensing instrument.
Scene isnt possible
Without a shape
A color
A seer
Scene transmutes
With the change in the mood
In the shape
A situation
I conclude,
If there is a something
Unrelative
Unchanging
Objective
Then
In a sense, there is a nothing
Relative
Changing
Subjective
Then
Why should I
Insist upon having seen
Having known
Having realized
Something known as truth?
