TIME WAITS FOR NOBODYOn a sunny day
Right in my parlour
Laying on the couch
I was going through my phone
Then I paused for a moment
Because of the sound of our wall clock.
The time keeps ticking
Every second
You see how busy nature is
Why sitting without labouring?
Don't choose comfort
At the age of labour
Then you...

Pen Name
What’s an appropriate pen-name
for a poet on the climb for fame?
First of all, it should have a ring to it,
a certain literary allure about it.
Make it clever, give it an appeal
even though it isn’t yours or real.
Choose a name that draws the ear
and promises a lucrative career.
Sound and purposeful psychology
when coupled with creativity
will boost sales...

REALITY OF LIFEWhen you're hot
I mean when you start
Glowing or winning
Instead of them to flow
They start looking for faults
Bringing the past you've outgrown to shine
Just to bring you down
Stay strong, so they won't think their plots or plans have been manifested.
When you're happy
They'll do anything
To make you bored
Just to see you...

BE TOLD, STAY BOLD AND TAKE HOLDBe Told
What worth a thousand
Can't be attained with hundreds
To know the degree
You must measure
To get to the top of a tree
You have to climb it.
Stay bold
If you're working on it
It will surely work out
When you give it your all
There must be an outcome
Even if not immediately but it's certain.
Take...

MESSAGE TO THE YOUTHSIf you want to go far in life
Reduce your circle
The people you share your dreams with
It's not about numbers, but loyalty
Make a long table, helping others
So you can be stable
When ever you're not capable
So you'll be able, to get where you want to be.
If you want to be
Liked by people
Start...

The BeingIn life we find thrill, chills and vains of nerve
Dreams of believers as high as sky eyes
Like climbing mountain, loose stone, slide to
next grab
We stumble, occasional knee drop to ground
Inside, is it emotion controls ego edge for living
A complex molecule structure pumped by blood red heart
A spirit, does...

Addiction Sense
Addiction is not merely the repetition of pleasure, but a drug's capacity to co-opt the body’s systems — much like a virus — for its own symbiotic, self-perpetuation.
When we conflate this bio-chemical entanglement with the psychological effects of behavior, we mistake appetite for affliction and misdiagnose the...

A New Gospel
Drugstore parking lots these days are far
more crowded than houses of religion!
And with more people suffering legions
of physical and mental problems, are
we justified to ask the question with a chill:
has the modern pill become the new gospill?

Grammar As Some See It
If only grammar were simplified
we then could speak uncriticized.
Or, if grammar were abandoned
we’d all be speaking standard.
Think how easy it would be
to speak flawed yet naturally,
and not worry that what we say
is the right or proper way.
The purist will of course object
and castigate me as a derelict,
arguing that ungrammatical English
is speech reduced to gibberish.
But...

Bread
Flour, water, salt, and yeast
these basic ingredients at least
were for generations the staple
of bread eaten at the table.
To these basic natural four
have been added many more
“ingredients” whose description
might pass for a prescription!
Pharmaceuticals will justify
chemicals to keep the food supply
longer on the shelves, while you and I
suffer bodily effects by and by!
And have you ever tried...

Life's ExampleMany think life is living the riches
Their heart finds love but never satisfaction
Living society, where does one find peace
Among their heart, forgotten how to love
Nature of existence, bond in unity
We obligate our priorities to material world
Our souls buried with ancestors we walk
Like lost generation ruled unto themselves
Life...
