When you eat chicken,you get chicken-pox.
When you play polo, you catch polio.
When you color,you catch cholera.
When you descend on people you catch dysentry.
When you like harvesting potato tubers you catch tuberculosis.
When you steal answer you catch cancer.
When you don't like people you catch Aids.

I’m so afraid of myself
Afraid of the anger that burns my soul
A vicious poison
Consuming what should be my soul
Corrupting the very breadth of life in me
A false sense of control was all I ever had
But yet…with you
Everything is calmer
Everything is clearer
You are my savior
My savior
My...

The pendulum starts gaining speed again
I can’t sleep
I feel so guilty keeping you around
I shouldn’t
I should not do this to you
If I were truly your friend
I would set you free
I should
I should
So why can’t I
Why can’t I function without you
woosh, woosh
The pendulum speeds
And speeds
I can’t...

Back and Forth
Back and Forth
My cruel mind goes
Like the deadly pendulum
It swings some more
Entrapping those that come around
Back and Forth
Back and Forth
Like the tides of the frozen ocean
Anger
Love
Sadness
Hatred
Back and Forth
Back and Forth
Unable to stop
Continually altering my thoughts
Causing me to cause problems
When there should be none
When...

Let you be
I don’t want to hurt you
I don’t want to
I don’t
I don’t
I’m so sorry
I’m so scared
I’m scarred
I’m scared
I’m sorry
You’re always so great to me
Always
Always
I’m nothing but trouble to you
Nothing but impending pain and torture
Grief and Sorrow
Nothing good
Nothing good
I am so very sorry
I’m sorry that...

Water-borne diseases
Man senselessly increases
With his trembling “No”
To drinks he doesn’t know
Instead of “The firmest”
That portrays “The Dead Earnest”

Water-borne diseases
One hopelessly increases
By not taking The Certified Pure
Or with a bow declining The Impure
Between tap water adjudged pure
And liquor blissfully a lure.

Isn’t affordable to the poor
Bottled water...

Fighting,
Fighting,
Can't fight no more,
It's winning the game,
A game I don't want to play anymore,
My bodies weak,
Sometimes I don't want to move,
But my job as a wife,
And a mother,
Is what makes me fight through,
The love of my life,
And others around me,
Thank god,
For giving things to me,
Day...

There are people
                and there are superficial evils ...
                Illnesses that bother,

A body housing three diseases
With three more as the visiting ones:
Enjoy he does just brief releases,
On some days obliged to laugh but once...

A rough fate acting as it pleases;
Each time he dumped his drugs worse than dunce
Cimetidine that Ulcer eases
Or else a body hit on...

In the mortal realm, a million diseases lurk
Each one poised to kill a man
The ache of longing for distant dreams
Neglecting the near for a pitiful mirage
The boil of lust, yielding to flesh
Forsaking the path of chastity

The fever of impatience, rushing to doom
While salvation stands on...

Bp is up 
Tb is breaking 
Asthma closes up ?
Ebola is exterminating 
HIV is viral 
Cancer is cutting 
Diabete is destroying  
Corona is crushing 
Malaria is messing. 
People  are crying 
Hurting 
Dying daily 
Here and there.

(A linguistic experience)

Was there any argument that justified 
the existence of the word-disease?
something more was said of this 
at the beginning of the completion of the understanding
who disputed any logos establishing the new negative balance
on the influence of the word on the general condition 
of...

IMPRISONED 
Radhika Sanoj
The cloudy apprehensions snarl at us,
The prisoners of a diseased planet..
We are no different nation..
We are alike 
White, black, brown..,
All terribly and virtuously alike.
We together creep in fetters,
Leaving Springs behind..

Once we read , "can spring be far....."
Now winter's teeths whiten 
Our fragile bones..
Oh...
