Experiments were not attempted at that time, we did not believe in the usefulness of the concept anyway, and I finished my thesis in 1962 with a feeling like an artist balancing on a high rope without any interested spectators.

A Painted House Is Like A Poem.
In a way-A house painter is like a poet...
The house painter or average person just might not know it.
A lot of cleaning, sanding and preparation of the surface takes care and time...
Compositions, editing and thought polishes the rhyme.
When finished, they both are a work of art...
A lot of sweat and work is done by the artist's own part.
In the end, a finished polished piece...
Makes the artist, happy and at peace.
The work is finally done...
What hard work, finished-Now
feelings of enjoyed fun.

It ought to be illegal for an artist to marry. If the artist must marry let him find someone more interested in art, or his art, or the artist part of him, than in him. After which let them take tea together three times a week.

The concept that an artist would be revered by popular culture is an immediate dismissal of his relevance as an artist.

A round round Ball
i like the concept of God
perfection in imperfection
a round round ball no artist
could paint without making lesser round
i like the
perpetual Driver in me
perfection seeker amid imperfections
a spirit perpetually
desiring to do beter
today than yesterday
to be closer one's goal -
a round round ball no artist could do justice to
i like the concept of the homo sapiens
a transient world cruising through eternal
rising and falling, falling and rising
beside a round round ball no artist could do
without making lesser round

Correctitude Amid Vicissitude in Soul's transcendence!
In transcendence of Self's journey,
Correctitude Amid Vicissitude,
Of life and trifles,
Patience, perseverance,
Wisdom and knowledge, Love and affection,
reflections and satisfaction,
all may lead us,
As Guru within Guide us!
The one knows all, is in one's heart,
Listen the voice your heart,
Use the brain to think,
Obey inner voice,
Be ready to face,
Let smile glow on your face,
Not even feeling pain's trace!
Namaste
relatives and,
Namaste friends,
I am one among you,
Still balancing on rope,
Below is fire of pain,
Swords and spears of desires,
Alligators and sharks of selfish motives,
Above is our abode,
thin rope that is tied from here to there!
Give a hand of help when some fall,
Even though you are still balancing,
If not you can,
Please never laugh,
On others fall!
walk with care,
have an eye on others,
If they can't help you,
Be sure they will not make you fall!
Correctitude Amid Vicissitude,
be a good actor, practice and perform disciplined,
Work out problems and hurdles,
Practice makes one perfect,
When consciousness and
unconscious are one,
When knowledge and action coordinate,
The Guru smile and Guide,
Manifesting himself as
Intelligence and wit,
Wait for deliverance,
Get free!

Work or no luck
If you don't have work
You get killed sitting still
Work or no luck
If you have too much work
You get killed struggling still
Work or no luck
If you finish fast
You get killed killing time
Work or no luck
If you don't finish on time
You get finished on time
Work or no luck
If you do well
You get recognized well
Work or no luck
If you do not do well
You get the pink paper wall
Work or no luck
If you are organized
You finish it on time
Work or no luck
If you are disorganized
You get finished on time
Work or no luck
If you are interested
Toughest becomes easy
Work or no luck
If you are not interested
Easiest thing becomes toughest
Work or no luck
If you are carving
You keep doing it great
Work or no luck
If you are not carving
You keep doing it a trait
Work or no luck
If you have work
You have luck
Work or no luck
If you have work
Still nothing to do
You have no luck
That's the fate of
Work or luck! ! ! !

The fate of attention
I grew interested.
I became interested.
I stayed interested.
I was no more interested.
I was no longer interested.
I grow uninterested.
It is so for every person
And for every thing
We focus our attention on.

We are a spectacular, splendid manifestation of life. We have language. . . . We have affection We have genes for usefulness, and usefulness is about as close to a 'common goal' of nature as I can guess at. And finally, and perhaps best of all, we have music.

One of the aspects of form that I have been very interested in is stasis - the concept of form which is not so directional in time, not so much climactic form, but rather form which allows time, to stand still.

Jump (The Velvet Rope)
Some people get lucky
Born with a silver spoon
Other people got to work real hard
A whole life of paying dues
One man got a big old house
Fast car and swimming pool
Another man got a big old wife
Ten kids and one bathroom
[PRE-CHORUS]
Sometimes
We're just stuck
Behind
The velvet rope [x2]
[CHORUS]
You gotta jump up so high
Jump up jump over the rope
You gotta jump up so high
Jump up jump the rope
Some people get lucky
Take a chance to strike it rich
Other people wll they bet it all lose
Ain't life a bitch
One man's on the guest list
Arrives in a limousine
Another man got to stand on line
Outside in the pouring rain
[BRIDGE]
We got the world on a string
Wrapped around our fingers
We got everything we need
We don't need a thing
There ain't no rope that can hold us
Nothing keeps us down
There ain't a rope that can bind us
We're gonna jump up off the ground

Tight Rope
Verse 1
There's so much I want to share
For so long I've been too scared
To show the way I feel for you
But I know what I have to do
So I'm just gonna say it, (say it)
Love is like a game
And I'm gonna play it, (play it)
I hope you feel the same
Chorus
I'm in, so deep
Can't think and I can't sleep
I'm high upon a tight rope and it always leads to you
These days, I find, you're always on my mind
I'm high upon a tight rope and I've got to get to you
Verse 2
Wonna take you by the hand
When we touch you'll understand
That there's a love I can't deny
And it's too much to keep inside
So I'm just gonna say it, (say it)
Love is like a game
And I'm gonna play it, (play it)
I hope you feel the same
Chorus
I'm in, so deep, can't think and I cant sleep
I'm high upon a tight rope and it always leads to you
These days, I find, you're always on my mind
I'm high upon a tight rope and I've got to get to you
Bridge
No more time should pass us by
dont ask how I know it but this tim
Is made for you and I
Chorus to fade

Of course, not everybody's willing to go out and do the experiments, but for the people who are willing to go out and do that, - if the experiments don't work, then it means it's not science.

Man Or Machine
Auto, bus, walking and sweating dermis,
somehow on time I reach my office.
work needs to be finished on time so I sit infront of computer.
breakfast time, toast, butter and tea glass,
hurriedly I eat, unaware it may appear boorish and crass.
work needs to be finished on time so I sit infront of computer.
lunch time, dosa containing rice, dal and yeast,
the way I eat can put to shame any wild beast.
work needs to be finished on time so I sit infront of computer.
till evening, I am tired, drowsy and dozy
but I skip the plan to go outside to have some tea.
work needs to be finished on time so I sit infront of computer.
My head aches, my eye burns
but I continue work amidst yawns.
work needs to be finished on time so I sit infront of computer.
Just before logout, I work with great pace,
with time I contest, compete and race.
work needs to be finished on time so a computer sits infront of computer.
