Best Philosophies Poems
Forevermore, this fantastical
free verse features
a fortuitous tale
featuring forty-four flirty
frilly fabricated faeries
fractionally forsaken,
forever fictionalized
philosophically and phonetically
free to force
feisty forest phantoms
to frenzy. These feisty forest faeries,
frequently act like
femme fatales, for whom
we fire phantoms feel free
to fixate for future faerie flocks.
Foundationally, this un-formidable free verse
is free of falsities, but fraught with fiction and fantasy.
When we are delirious
with the delirium of sickness
we begin to ask those ?'s
what is the meaning of life?
Is there a God?
Heaven and Hell?
Is time circular, like the mandala
spherical like baby Jesus' bouncing
ball blasting the cosmos into
existence
Big Bang and Cap'n Crunch cosmic
Shiva tap dancing on the dead
midget of Self
Or:
Is it linear, like Pinocchio's nose
the dark pencil sketch
the artist shading in the gray
fog of the misty minds eye
trembling under
Red blanket
White blanket
Blue boxers
patriot of a 1,000 souls
a philosopher
who philosophizes the green gunk
upchuked from the chimneys
of our soul
contemplating truths and scripture
Lotus-leaf=a symbol of the
androgyne
before Adam, before Eve
before Steve even
before the Masculine God
patriarchal playground
Before, the Mother Goddess
with her angry menstrual cycle
and tree being birthed from her gaping maw
before the Big Bang
jizzim of the universe
there was the
androgyne
sitting in a bubble looking at Earth
Stanley Kubrick eat your heart out
2001 times
When you have this delirious
mind, when the flu of Benicia
the hydra with a thousand
Double Rainbow flavors
gets the best of you
of your immune system
hear the ringing of the bell as
they box for your painful
enjoyment
Remember these moments of deep contemplation
and pause like
The Buddha under Bodhi
Moses on Sinai
Jesus in Gethsemane
Muhammad on Hira
Remember to smile
Love is blind,
But it can see beyond what your eyes can do.
Love is everywhere,
But it only dwell in your being.
Practice makes perfect,
But nobody's perfect at all.
It can only make ineradicable things,
Out of those human imperfections.
First love never die,
Is there any immortal and imperishable being here on Earth?
Beauty is on the eye of the beholder,
So,is simplicity beauty?
Honesty is the best policy,
But no one do abide laws and jurisprudence.
Laughter is the best medicine,
But still cannot scab one's excruciation.
An apple a day makes the doctors away,
But too much will make you obese.
All problems have solutions,
But all solutions come with another problem
.
Life is too short,
But it's a long expedition of storms,
And a long ransack for conciliation.
Is 65 years too short?
Time is gold,
so,why do many people still exploit and excavate for it?
Time is limitless,
But still too many are supplicating for money.
Love is the greatest gift of all,
But, too much ardor will kill you,
For it is the most efficacious foe and rival,
And for it can make demonic sins when abused,
Health is wealth
And love is all we need
But, can love and health fed us when we are starving for food?
Or can they quench one's thirsty throat when begging for a drop of water?
Education is the solution,
So why am I acting like this?
I am schooled and nurtured,but still negating known lessons,
Making assumptions and syllogisms,
..........Making a PHILOSOPHER'S PHILOSOPHIES!
-----MY FIRST POEM IN THE SOUP CONTEST entry
Had I but a moment of insight true,
To echo notes of Homer's Lyre,
And wrestle from stars which I pursue,
The arctic chill of philosophies fire,
I'd wander the depths of my Eleusinian soul,
Pray the orphic note endure,
And through an image cast upon a stone,
Rise from the visible to the obscure,
And blessed may I carry in life's early prime,
Danu's symphony, hallowed vibrations,
The ethereal soul through heights sublime,
The emerging light of primordial creations
Why strive for depth?
A picture of one under waves
Who drowns.
He reaches for the stars from the depths,
Waiting for a meaning to rattle his bones
And propel him beyond the trees.
But the trees hold the wisdom,
And the ground holds the roots.
Why go anywhere
When it is always here
And surrounds him?
He closes his eyes
And shakes his head,
Believing here can't hold the power
To rattle his fragile bones.
"Life teaches many lessons along the way
If you are aware of them you can make life better in every way"
I lost my mother when I was 10
Learned first lesson of my life
Acquire skills from those who know
Once they are gone
you can do nothing except
Crying out of sheer helplessness and regret
When in twenties miseries of world pained me
poor dying of hunger, so much disparity in world,
If God exists why is he not doing anything?
This led me to an era of reading,
in spiritual books I found answers to my questions
Discovered real aim of life is salvation,
we suffer because we have sinned in past births
Suddenly one day father passed away,
day after his death he talked to us
(could hear his voice clearly)
"I regret not spending time with my granddaughter
I thought I will play with my son's children
I never expected to die all of a sudden"
I learnt that day to enjoy life,
not to postpone happiness for tomorrow
Got married with dreams of love and happiness
only to be greeted by selfish people who criticized me endlessly
Cried daily for 10 years then one day shouted at all
They couldn't take it, they subdued
but I was not happy. I had sinned.
Learnt many truths of life
Those who criticize cannot stand their own criticism
To avoid guilty conscience do good however bad others may be
One should have no desires, they give endless miseries
My past experience are so bad that their very thought makes me sad
I try not to think of past,
I live in the moment in front, savouring every bit of it
As for desires I have ended all for I realised fulfillment is not entirely in my hands.
I have no expectations from anyone...
I try to be happy and stay away from anything that can steal it.

Love...
The complexity of it all
Never a stranger
To stranger ways
Yet, in flux
What shall I do
But, enter into unknown realms
Lost beyond, where all rationality goes
And, what of the life lines
Should they never fetch me back
Nor if they could
Would I then, embrace them yet
Bu, prefer to drown
Within her arms
Amidst, the passions of a heart
And address to all...
who have partaken of this fruit
Sweetest nectars off the vine
Counsel, against all hopes of diets change
To quell desires of the appetites
A universe of benevolence
Beatitudes within this
The seasons of...
Love's preparatory bliss
To also caution...
Upon discovery of fresher science
Which only seeks to explain
But, become a master of the study
Worshiping her undue complexities
And revel in this catalyst
Of newer discoveries
Unto one’s self
Becoming like an innocence
Within her presence
And always there...
Destined to be and remain
Someone is conservative
Someone is liberal
But
Someone is
Transcendentalist and
Universalist
Is he a conservative, too?
"All you need is love"
Can love be my life when I'm dying for love?
Can it fed us when we are starving for food?
Can love quench one's thirsty throat?
"Diamonds are forever"
There's no space for that never-ending forever...
Eternal infinity?
Perpetual immortality?
"You are gold"
Can you be my unlimited wealth of hundred-fold?
Spending your very last
Making me rich and famous...do not last...
"I'm out of my league once again"
Consciously hallucinating
Laughing with my idiosyncrasies
Asking desperate queries...
