Acclimatizing Pill

Acclimatizing Pill 
 P K Routray

With heat and humidity at peak,

power supply playing hide and seek

my brain and my frame frowned upon my soul

to migrate out to frames playing varied roles

an artist to a doctor, a saint to a philosopher

in every role if such condition it can cross over.

“Living up and acclimatizing as a man to such a climate”

Utopian scheme it is! as everyone cannot be a saint.

“Providing air conditioners without power interruption.”

Not feasible it is for most as resources has limitation.

“To divert attention and live on poetry music, art and craft.”

“Nonsense” tells the soul as from the body it will surely depart.

in each and every role such delirium haunted the soul.

Tortured it was, heat and humidity around taking its toll

Suddenly rang my mobile alarm reminding me with caution

to take medicine at noon to control my BP, lest it is forgotten.

“Eureka”, “Eureka” the Archimedes in me shouted aloud

An acclimatizing pill is the solution peeped from the shroud.

An acclimatizing pill if man van invent.

Varying temperature humidity a man can tolerate

Rise and fall in temperature and humidity

hardly can threaten the human entity.

Do not laugh, my friends at this creation

It is from the pen under unbearable heat and humidity condition.
