Best Unveil Poems
"You don't belong here!"
They said.
They doubted the authenticity
Of my identity.
Black night bade me come in,
Provided I sang a song.
Paroxysms of regret filled my song;
The monotonous song from my ektara.
It was a parody of how the sun rises;
And zoetropically sets.
To unveil the black night.
It felt as though the pants had been
Yanked right off my melancholy.
The polka dot boxers underneath
Were memories, regrets and yearnings.
They were scattered like foreign coins
On the side walk and
Not even beggars could pick them up
For they were worthless in that country,
Corresponding to nothing but themselves.
To be righteously indignant and selfish,
Black night taught me.
My packing paraphernalia converged
In the room where I kept the tune of my
Monotonous song and soundless ektara.
My host though bright and caring,
Had hidden many truths from my soul
For fear it would be broken further.
I pulled the pants of pride up
My melancholy and gathered my shekels.
I shuffled off into the next chapter of life,
An instructive detour complete.
Black night wiped off my invisible tears.
Black night was a knight in white
But unrighteous in his cause which he
Veneered behind a triad to give it colour.
Black night bade me come in,
Provided I sang a song.
Paroxysms of regret filled my song;
The monotonous song from my ektara.
As I struck its string
Black night nodded his head
As if enjoying the sound of my sorrow.
Black night deceived me!
Are we tedious, given the camera's dexterity?
Requiring what our reasons tell us to escape.
The topic's dualism generates disparity.
Using these subjects to symbolize "reshape"
I'll dig them up and bid farewell, verity.
Desire and aversion avert the soul's clemency.
Cynical evil hinders delight from spreading,
You foster anchoring and hedonistic tendency.
Happiness shrinks as expectation embedding.
If you're an oddity, then bear the pendency.
The realm of light is infinite and over pure.
Ethical glow would rouse delight and bliss.
Lack of egoism defines the core of the cure.
Aversions and desires give a lead to the abyss.
Wants are sheer unless mingled with body lure.
Being selfless is fun, and it's fun to be free.
Life on earth grants a test of love and fear.
Freedom is devoid of craving and worry.
What drives sadness, fear, and smear?
Desire only fuels a broader wishful story.

UNVEIL
I swim and sink
in ocean of your deep emotion!
I wish to drink
your dormant desires .
Why inertness shown?
Supernal elegance you own.
My sweetheart.
Why wobbling!
Unveil your heart.
Your amorous urge
surging in your heart!
Yet, acting introvert !
Your bubbling blood
to flow in flood.
Why hesitant!
Act vibrant.
Feelings not to let chilled.
Unveil your heart
My sweetheart.

Unveil the Money Trail
Hearing MSNBC and Money Trail
as a clue so we can solve things.
As usual when we need to do is unveil,
Source and length of the money trail
Leave none alone,
And soon known;
When found faces will become pale.
Jim Horn
forever entangled in your word riddles
cross-checking the depth of it all
meaning to leave it behind
for I know when it revealed your cards
things are spiral
hinting the inside insanity
far along the gameplay
your prayers and charms failing through
on my way making it past you
to unveil the love I deserve
and painting butterflies wherever
found my thoughts oppressed
longing for you
UNVEIL THE LIGHT WITHIN
~~~~~~~~~~~
From the faith that resides within me deep,
A guiding light, in times when shadows creep.
An unwavering belief, summoned me from sleep,
Just as trouble awakens the Superman in Kent Clark
It boost the strength against any evil attack.5
With the scriptures stored up in my heart,
I stand tall, take a stand against the fiery darts
In the midst of life's trials and strife,
There's a truth that brings me back to life?
For in the depths of my soul, I've come to know,
The source from which my strength does flow.
I know where my strength comes from, you see,
It's not from worldly power or vanity.¹³
Like Wonder Woman, I am daring and true,
With faith and power, there's nothing I can't do.
In the pages of scripture, I find light,
The hero within me, blazes blisteringly bright.¹7
Donning my suits of corporate might,
I unleash my power within as I take flight.
Like Clark Kent with his secret guise,
I unveil my uniform, ditching disguise.²¹
I am the modern-day heroine, fierce and true,
With every step, I'll always blaze through.
In the holy bible of my Father's design,
I find my purpose, and my light will shine.²5
