Destructs Poems

Premium MemberAvadhuta Gita Chapter 1, verses 5 and 6

5. “The essence and the whole of Vedanta is this Knowledge, this supreme Knowledge:
That I am by nature the formless, all-pervasive Self.”

6. “There is no doubt that I am that God who is the Self of all; Pure, indivisible, like the sky.
Naturally stainless.”


Unreal is all that that comes and goes
Beliefs and concepts are thought constructs 
I Am living light in renewal, unending bliss that flows
In the light of absolute truth illusionary ego self-destructs

All that is manifest and formless is singular Self (God) alone
Absolute oneness stands outside of time and space 
When ego recedes true Self comes into its own
Oh hermit, there are no puzzles to lace

The Politics Of Religion

The arrogance
of conscription
the blasphemy
of denial

Abraham
shouting high above
to dam
the bloody Nile

We speak with words
deceptive
to try and steal
the peace

As blasphemy
that self destructs
in arrogance
— repeats

Premium MemberLook On the Bright Side

When the kids are complaining
'cause it won't stop raining,
To be stuck indoors just sucks.
Don't let them pout,
Instead point out,
It's lovely weather for ducks!

When you're feeling blue
'cause your bills are due,
And you've got more checks than bucks,
Don't take to drink,
Count to ten and think,
It's lovely weather for ducks!

When you've burned the toast
And ruined the roast
'cause you just can't cook for shucks,
Lift up your chin
And order in,
It's lovely weather for ducks!

When your spirit's poor
'cause your job's a bore,
Your career is at its crux,
Just smile and shrug,
Lots of dough in drugs,
But before your self-esteem self-destructs,
Please remember this bit,
Not all drugs are legit,
And besides that's a business for schmucks.
So stay on the right side,
And look on the bright side,
Somewhere, 
It's lovely weather for ducks!

Stanzas of cyanide, her words come laced
Silky smooth ink, self destructs into space 
Still her head unlocks 
Unlike comments box
One hundred instant hits, a maze in grace

Muster courage, resurrect love
All else but thought constructs
When head and heart be hand in glove
Then ego self-destructs 

Enliven soul presence
Shake inner sentience 
Know we are God essence

Almighty blesses, cares, destructs every form generated.

                    His invisible juggle kindles lofty manifestations.

                                   Nonpareil obeisance paid.

               Quirky, reasonable, sublime traits uprightly venerated.

                                 Wondrous  X-factors yield Zen!

Escape

Loom and doom escapes the rational mind..
Darkness oozes ..
A menace to itself
A fearful mind self destructs
As fear separates itself from logical thinking..
It creates a world of its own..

Where there lies hopelessness
Chaotic events unfold..
Seen through the eyes of fear
Lying on a bed of needles
Pricked by a thorn of a rose
Where rose petals no longer have a scent

When one escapes..
One must return to love
Wipe the tears of anguish
To replace them with tears of joy..

Shackles and chains unlocked 
Freedom gained ..
Burden lifted
Take a breath of fresh air..
Breathe the breath of life..
As the heart is opened to receive love..
A threshold of light illuminates..
Embraced you are..
Held in the loving arms of Divinity..
Lifted you are
Carried by the Divine..

Femicide

# FEMICIDE 

This simply refers to the killing of women.
The brutal killing of women with no reason.
It is vicious as it occurs continuously
Hence it introduces pains  injuriously.

It destructs ourlives on a negative way .
Tears , sorrow and hate-in our hearts do stay .
Emotional and mental disturbance occurs 
Yet all female human are in sadness nor happiness.

Why some men are so cruel ?
Killing a women foul
Is it hard to talk competently first ? 
Trying to implant what went incorrect.

Where is humanity ? 
Women are people of tranquility
Dear people ,Let's stand to overcome 
Women are meant for love nor harm .

Femicide 
Femicide 
Oh !! Dear God divulge yourself 
It is truly enough .

The Fault In Our Minds

Salt and sea breeze rubbed against my skin,
The soul left my lungs to inherit it’s win.
I looked around and found aesthetics in the dark,
Captured in polaroids , memorising my own heart. 
The reality is what I don’t allow them to see,
It’s covered in stardust, saved only for me.
It took me a while to realise what it meant,
How the waves swept , how dauntless i felt.
They’d hate you for what you’ve been,
Leaving the possible reasons unseen.
Forgetting all of what you’ve ever built,
Calling it a facade , giving you the guilt.
When the wall collapses, it destructs both sides,
Something they won’t know; they’re too busy counting the lies.
How do you teach the stars to shine in sun’s presence?
That’s when you walk away, accepting their absence.
Returning to your own skies, creating your own reality,
Understand that it’s a beautiful vitality.

Duas Electiones

You have two choices
in war…

Turn into a psychopath,
or suffer PTSD

Becoming the former,
may insure your survival

Suffering the latter
—and your world self destructs

You As a Tree of Life

Maybe you ignore it.

You as a Tree of Life radiate sparks; 
successive generations of offshoots.
Offshoots of the second, third... generation. 

Sparks of your own greatness 
enlighten successive generations.

Afterwards the primal tree burns and self-destructs
but that beneficial destruction
spreads and radiates over all of them,
sparks alike golden fireworks from heaven.

The Pathway

Is there a direction to the universe,
  without the polar caps

The equator gone as space expands,
  looking forward—looking back

Does today become tomorrow,
  as tomorrow self destructs

Are the questions left by law unasked,
  when the answers run amuck

Can our thoughts be put in limbo,
  can our feelings lead the way

To what is known beyond the light,
  illusions cast away

And if just this moment matters,
  and the prophets all were right

The doorway back to who we are
   —in dreams we’ll dream tonight

Living On the Surface

Living on the surface,
  dinner’s always served at eight

Living on the surface,
  pride forever casts your fate

Living on the surface,
  things always seem just fine

Living on the surface,
  plays an endless pantomime

Living on the surface,
  the church contains your soul

Living on the surface,
  your religion swallowed whole

Living on the surface,
  things never change that much

Living on the surface,
  you can only look, not touch

Living on the surface,
  the wheel only spins one way

Living on the surface,
  each spoke a mortgage pays

Living on the surface,
  love professes in a vow

Living on the surface,
  real commitment not allowed

Living on the surface,
  new doors stay locked and shut

Living on the surface,
  your reentry self-destructs

Living on the surface,
  your reflection flat and clean

While just below the surface
  —beats the heart of what things mean

Spite

Spite- fuel of squabble 
                                    which raze and destructs 
                                                                       CONSCIENCE.

Cancer

How do you comfort the unknown?

Is it some form of diabolic presence
or fate?
What are we destined for

and to suffer through?

Isn't agony enough?

Isn't fate rainbows, butterflies and happy thoughts?

Think again, darling.

The world is strenuous,
problematic
and troublesome

a series of a thousand empty promises

a cure for something devastating.

I can't fathom.

I can't comprehend

or see this crucial lesson

how and why,
why and how

do emotions lead to suffering,
an arbitrary solution-

How does one believe in destiny
when it destructs 

and leaves you wondering why
