The Economic Times is the unlikeliest place to search for some poetry. Yet, that’s precisely what I found two days back. Tucked away in an article were some lines from a song by one Janis Joplin:
One day, up near Salinas, Lord, I let him slip away…
..He’s looking for that home and I hope he finds it…
..But I’ll trade all my tomorrows for a single yesterday…
..To be holding Bobby’s body close to mine…
..Freedom’s just another word for nothing left to lose…
Applies to so many of us, doesn’t it? The last line hit me like a bolt from the blue. Probably the world and all of us with it are hurtling towards such a freedom. How many of us want it though? :-(
