A million waves atop the sea,
All calling, calling, 'Notice ME!'
But all the Albatross can see
Is sea and sea and sea and sea.
A million wanting to be heard
To stand out from the wobbly herd
But none of their small cries come near
To reaching Albatross's ear
Then Albatross lets out a cry
And off it floats into the sky
Destined never to be heard
Just like the cry of every bird
And writer writes some rhyming lines
Hoping that his lyric shines
Into the eyes of Who Knows Who?
He's trying to be noticed too.
"Your somebodiness is so small. The more you are somebody, the smaller you are; the more you are nobody, the bigger. Be absolutely nobody, and you are one with the existence itself." Osho
