Random Peek at Depression

Depression is a slow poison with no specific cure. Often with assimilation of model behaviour, it can help a person deal with it. Rather than having a dreaded view, Neelam expresses her feelings in this verse, in Different Truths.

what oft delirium set of cafes, of poster arts
a sketch seems so burlesque on edges starts
the world to show off the time, does turns player

if the stories are new, half of paradigm
motioned by sickness, eulogies of cats
in figures descending three, two

silence is in dialogues, new vinery introductions
light turns slipslop song
when it stands still in the plight.
