Premium Member We Were Here Before the Borders
They wake before the mist lifts in bamboo huts nailed to the spine of hills, children with feet toughened by stone, learning to climb before they can read. The school a distant building where the teacher comes twice a week, or not at all. Lessons written in a language that does not speak their names. A girl hums an old tune as she carries water...

Premium Member Sky without The Borders
From the high deck, gazing far away The southern sky, the clouds arrayed Passing overhead in summertime Stirring up dreams with open eyes A warm wind sweeps across my face The wild doves have left their place Carrying with them joyful songs Seagulls enjoy the sky all day long The sparrows forget the green...

PRECARIOUS BORDERS
A republic finds itself in a wobbly state, Governance shrouded by an opaque regime, Some strands emerge together into a credible tapestry, Many weaves yet to emerge from the loom. Decades of simmering hostility, Punctuated by spasms of bonhomie, Sputtering out into recrimination— These circumscribe our strategic choices. The populace divided, a schism stark and deep, Hawks and doves in stark contrast. Neighbourhood's dangerous gaze,...

Premium Member I have drawn the maps of my sorrow, with borders of ochre and ash
I have drawn the maps of my sorrow, with borders of ochre and ash, rivers of longing winding like silver snakes toward the empty seas of unfulfilled dreams, the valley of abandoned thoughts, a cemetery of withered promises, and the desert of sighs, its sand made of words that shatter like glass under the weight of silence. In the center,...

I’m a state without statesmen That exists until I breathe Though with all attention span You won’t see a state like this I’m a country with no borders Rooted in the autumn sky I don’t set no laws and orders I’m not forcing any ties Prohibitions and permissions Ain’t the games I press to play Live upon your own conditions Pay whatever you can...

The Wall above it all OR Open Borders below us all
Trump will put her in the dump I have a lump In my throat tonight Hopefully, He fights the good fight! Assumptions bleed on From dusk to dawn From twilight to gone... I have confidence in daylight On and on, I move on a ton Fight, fight, fight with our might Tomorrow is the BIGGEST day in history... What lies ahead? Misery or prosperity? I don't...

Premium Member My Borders are Made of Lilies
My borders are made of lilies. They are a pleasant reminder where caution begins and conflicts end. To those who know me, my borders are made with forgiveness, a kind and patient floral display. To those who try me, they are battle trenches that are now forgotten and unmarked graves. I have many flowers to give. They are a welcomed...

Floods follow no borders
Floods follow no lofty order, And blind be to any border, They like none, nor dislike, And equal do all strike, He knows who’s a fair beholder. ___________________________ Happenings |24.08.2024| river, flood Poet’s note: The new regime in Bangladesh recently felt that India deliberately opened up dam waters to inundate the neighbour country.
