Fetal errors

Kalai 1961 (Chennai)



Is it a fetal error
or a fatal error
that built my destiny?
prolonged painful life
makes me wonder
again and again
is it worth to live here?
as I live my life through
without expecting
what to do
it once again reminds
Am I living a life
full of fetal errors
or mere fatal moments
that reflect my unspent
karma  all these days.
