In VANCHINADU EXPRESS By the window I sat with stress. Munching by the dust-bin sat a mouse. Disturbed soul in mouse-trap-inn Though dismayed senses beamed in shells trio- The encircling walls that make three koshas- Annamaya of metals and minerals As the shell of eggs form; form the body. Manomaya of thought-waves is magnetic field active; As prana vibrates in its shell pranamaya kosha Dead engine whistled abrupt; On the rails the train swaying moved Vanchinadu express swaying moved. How can I express its pressing stress? In dress is my body ; in body my spirit: the soul, Under pressure of crowd and crowding thoughts. Smoke clouds of the engine chocked me, shook me. How can I express this pressing stress? The stress of balloons soaring high up Of surging waves and volcanoes live How..how canβ¦how can I express? Am I not one, one among them? Oh! Calm mouse, you too not ? How- Express? X Y press?- Progress? Regress? Elite- Soul's Senses- How I express? Note: 1. Annamaya kosha= shell of body;manomaya kosha= shell of mind;pranamaya kosha=shell of soul/nucleus. 2. X and y are chromosomes 3. Vanchinadu express is the express train servicing from Ernakulam to Thiruvanamthapuram
