Swivelling Layers of Condescension
I was born into this world hale and hearty
It was decided early on I was a smarty
And was written off to write the J E E
though elsewhere lay the interests of yours truly
With heart set to break tradition
I went into film and action
a hundred people had a hundred things to say
and made my family's view on me sway
this field became unworthy of my family's attention
they had to take care of their lofty reputation
My family withheld it's supple support and
I was left to find my own life transport
A few hardships for me and pity in my family stirred
All I had to do was shake my head and nod
I could become half my family business' head
and Prove to the world I was still of sterling breed
I did indeed , after a lengthy monologue , shake my head
A strong no it was and doors were forever shut
I was left alone , amidst confused love and tension
sinking , in the swivelling layers of condescension
The title and inspiration was a podcast I heard , by Suresh ......tamilians , do check out his podcasts...they are amazing .
P.S. This poem is not some self-reflecting poem or anything . I chose to write the JEE of my own stupidity .
