Junk

What do you expect to see in a junkyard - except mainly junk?

over the years, more junk, little gets annihilated.

like the big garbage bag carried by kalyani in our village

which i learn she carried till her last day

I fill and carry, and keep filling and keep carrying - both almost out of habit now

and even though it wears me down, it keeps happening like a tireless factory.

the result of which i produce some more junk and add to the bag

mistake not the forlorn looks and fireless eyes as a sign of age or decay

it’s just that the junk is too much and is getting bigger by the day..

Strange, but surely, I think I have some valuables hidden in it and I want them, ask me not what they are and how they will be useful, I won’t be able to say, but i know that there are some valuables. So this junk I safekeep, how much ever it wears me down.

And I forgot to tell you, this junk is somewhat special, one can only get rid of it in totality. One can’t be selective. And one can’t choose to retain it as is - without adding to it too.. If it is there it keeps becoming bigger as that’s its nature.

Let’s say much like a blackhole…

And is there anything known to science that annihilates a blackhole?

One more wrong question from the junkyard..

Why should science have all the answers?
