~Julice in the Wonderland~

The empty road
That stretched before my eyes…
Shocked me with it’s intent impact
As I glanced at it for the first time
Through the CCTV cam.

The muddy, rough road stretches before my eyes
Not long enough..
Lined with houses-tall, short,
And trees –thick and thin,
With both sides, it twists after a short distance
Or so it seems..
And is no more visible.
It has vanished somewhere among these houses and trees
As if it enters into a void somewhere down the lane
Into the magical territory of some black hole
Or they have swallowed it up.

Something is strange here…
Something  that seems natural enough
But is not definable.
What is that….
My searching stares find Nothing
They find nothing that can be related to anybody
Or anything…

It’s a strange land and a strange road…
Though puppet like people are popping out from nowhere.
They glide upon the same road
in their two or four wheelers,
drop their kids at the school gate
only to glide back along the strange road
that is devoured by the same twist
and enters into the same Bermuda Triangle.

I stare…
There is no one I know…
And nothing I can relate to here.
