In a separate house
while aloof
there was a closeness;
in the multistory
while coming closer
divergence?

Footnote:
The photo captured the multistory building near the Muttukadu river bank beside the OMR, Chennai. It’s obvious that today’s multistory or multiplex complex culture has kept away people’s interaction unlike before living at independent house people shared a lot with neighbors and treat each other as family members... We miss the sharing and interaction a lot after transfer into apartments 6 years’ back... where smiling is also a rare exchange!
I agree with you that these large high-rise apartments keep us from being neighborly with those around us. Your poem expresses the problem well.
ReplyDeleteSo true!
ReplyDeleteA good thought !
ReplyDeleteI think when you are ground floor, you get to meet he neighbours over the compound wall.
Here the barrier is too high!
Very true.
ReplyDeleteNice capture.
Hi, Jeevan!
ReplyDeleteIt's me again. Thank you for your visit.
these reserve and aloof nature is such a commonplace these days..
ReplyDeleteits sad but fact.. !!
Today people are busy in their own world.

ReplyDeleteCan't agree more with you Jeevan...our society is just getting more and more narrow and fragmented, all concerned only of themselves.
