Sleepless Nights

Sleepless Nights

My nights are spent sleepless

I keep rolling, counting numbers,

And the fence-jumping sheep.

Yet, the troubled mind never numbs.

I haven’t wronged, but

When others err in day light

With their eyes wide open,

I simply refuse to shut close.

Whom do I blame –

Myself or their game?

Formed this during the sleepless night of 17^th April, 2007, as I was returning by Yercaud Express from Erode, after attending the ‘punishment’ tour of Coimbatore & Erode Public Information Campaigns (PICs) conducted by my office (PIB Chennai), then headed by T. Jayaraj, DDG, and assisted by C. Muthuvelu, Jt. Director, and their loyal team. Both the PICs were utter failure.
