A lot of things aren't rational.
Yet for some reason
they believe
we believe
rational is good
but the lot of things not rational
are they all bad?
Shun them you should?
Feelings.
They are so irrational, mostly
a mad gush of chemicals
making you crazy
Making me fight
to keep them beneath the surface
making me fight
me.
Irrational isn't understood
simpler only than absurd
Fragile, yet unbreakable
into logical bits
Meaning only to a few
to the rest
Nonsensical
beyond wits.
What do I do
for tonight
the rationale in me
is weak
emotions are breathing
at the surface
my chances of survival
bleak.
I can whine
I can cry
I can kill it
at least try
Weakness
is a sin
The incoherence
needs to die

Now.. this is a beautiful post!!!
Neverthless a complex one!!
sometimes it's better to do irrational things ..because they are infinitely uncountable :)
Super :)
loved the lines..
"Making me fight

making me fight
me."
very true.
Sounds like it could very well be sung as a heavy metal song.
sometimes its only doing the irrational which can save you
PS: Been reading all your posts but never left a comment for a long time...but this rational irrational kicked up some recent feelings :)
It's really well written. Though I'm sure you've an "arrey kahaan!" reply to this. :)
nicely written...
but do somethin abt the mood...wat makes you smile....tell me...
How abt a cup of coffee to get u back?!!?
Wat say...?
:-)
Sometimes it is our weakness that keeps us strong, our irrationality that makes us rational, and our incoherency that leads us to the light. Why stifle them?

Ive just finished reading Amitav Ghosh, pliss dont expect me to undderstand this, I am still trying to make sense of what I just read, yet. you may then, ask, why are you commenting on post? I say - cos I felt like :D
Beautiful...loved the last para
The greatest incoherence here is that something so beautiful is written and is labeled 'crap':)

Thanks.
Complex to bahut kuch hota hai..but even then, everything is as simple as you please.

Ah, the bliss of mathematical plentitude!

:)
Thank you.

Hmm..
somebody should give it a try
[desperado]
Hey good to see u around, even though I know u r there somewhere :)
But I agree, only the irrational saves you. Chasing the rational is a self defeating purpose.
[vik]
:D
Impromptu, but thank you.
:D

Mood's a swinger.
But coffee..sure anytime :D
The I'd tell u in detail what makes me tick :P

Heart of heart, noone wants to stifle them, but smhow all we keep doing is trying to keep them in check, and longing for "freedom" to be "ourselves"
Strange world
[Justso]
Now that's the spirit, a truly irrational comment capturing the mood :D
Waise bhi, u r a master of the irrational : you got married
:P
[aditi]
:) thanks

Oh well...maybe it's beautiful because it's honest, and crappy because it's written the same way, honest rough unrefined
