The demon of unrest has a field day and the only antidote to break free from this jet lag induced stupor is by making some sleep adjustments. But is is easier said than done. Excellent work Ranjendran Ji.
Enjoyed this great write on a mental state when reality and illusion dissipate and coalesce......! This is exactly what one feels in a state of disturbed sleep.... !

Beautiful write on jet lag as one goes through, especially on long journey. Yes for youngsters it doesn't affect that much than the middle aged people. With Beautiful crafted words make this poem wonderful. Loved reading it.
