Looking in the mirror,
I see a woman who,
Mocks and humiliates me.
She looks back with a horrified face,
As having to endure living the,
Many years that has been,
Tested by the lines tolerated,
By experience and pain,
As time has passed.
Technology and history of a land,
Betrayed by the many ancestors,
Of our founding forefathers,
Long ago dead from this new country.
A world they would no longer,
Would know if alive.
This country they built.
They honored.
They fought for.
Yet these same new citizens,
Which can only be viewed as,
Traitors now fight against USA.
I look in the mirror as this face,
Shows tears falling like our country.
My hand touches the face of the,
Woman as I feel her tears,
Then I realize this woman is me and,
I Cry for this country that is lost and,
May never be saved.
Once upon a time in the United States,
Came a chap from England, a Sir Master Bates…
For they opened the doors at the guarded gates,
Off to Washington with his great debates…
Too much of a scholar to have any mates,
Always searching the Capital to find some dates…
Thus with a firm upper hand, he associates,
Trying to get relief as he desperately deliberates…
A silent sensitive scholar for he lavishly liquidates,
Within the chamber of commerce as he humiliates…
As he puts a showering show for his delegates,
And therefore cleaning up his act as he masculates
Within the body caucus, he deeply demonstrates,
Like a volcanic eruption, he modestly motivates…
But the lava is lukewarm for his speech emaciates,
Time to retire for the day as the caucus updates.

A Rattling Rhyme 2

I drink everyday cups after cups
Of what you feared to drink.
If blood differs its color from red
To saffron, white or whatever,
I deny to bleed religiously.
From what well a beggar
Draws water for his thirst I know not,
But I understand the poison
Of sins we, you and I, drink everyday;
Spiced with your indifferent high-handedness.
Do not hoist your flag on my history,
For I have stopped walking on tutored prayers.
In spite of the anthem you've baptized me with and
My flat nose and narrow eyes upon which
Your mockery humiliates humanity,
I remain native to my roots.
Someday, a stone will conquer us, the both of us,
When stars will drain their twinkles, with remorse,
On garbage of raped girls, even as chastity becomes
The fault-line along which seismic rebellions
Will tremor and justify my absence
From your churches, mosques and temples.
My demands, notwithstanding your statutes,
Are answerable by your august houses;
Lest posterity wil spill cups of curses
On altars, constitutions and patriotism.
Lovestruck, lonely, hurt, and sad,
What did I do that was so bad?
Disgusted, frustrated, guilty, envious,
Why dies life have to be so serious?
Humiliated, embarrassed, negative, paranoid,
This thing stopping me is called avoid.
Annoyed, caustious, anxious, aggressive,
These fears and dreams are really passive.
Puzzled, fearful, pained,hurt,
Sometimes I feel like I've been rolled in dirt.
Lonely, helpless, thoughtful, sad,
Thinking of all the years I have spent without a dad.
Withdrawn, miserable, humiliates, regretful,
Wishing I hadn't hurt all those people.
Stealing, lying, cutting and running from fears,
Always left my family in tears.
I've been locked up and sent away,
There is no one to blame but only myself.
Dealing with these issues is a scary thing,
No matter what I do, they wont go away.
I dont want to mount
the hardships of the sky
if the earth’s labor pain
is false or the action
stillborn with or without
scalpel the doctor
humiliates process
--R.K.SINGH
Pride oh Pride!!!
A renowed human fiber
The ruiner of life ride
Defamation of life guide
Pride is a debtor
Winner in seconds bt
never a victor
Oh i seek from divine
Mindlessness from
inferiority
For it yields nothing bt
lost
Indeed more than a sign
A shower of
vulnerability
Of the danger we
feared d most
Pierces the hrt of the
closest
Damages d mind of a
modest
Yes again a debtor!!
Debt of gratitude
Causing errors in
attitude
It steals humanity
before realised
Humiliates when
tarnished....
*TO BE CONTINUED....*
He roams the streets,day and night
he shows no respect to senior citizens
he bullies woman and children
he swears to anyone over everything
disrespect is his middle name
he is a monster
he finds joy in terror he plants in people
screams of woman and children
their fear completes his whole being
he has no emotions.he has no fear
he destroys everything he comes in contact with
he has no mother he has no creator
he has no shepherd
he fell like hail from hell,he rapes and kills
he humiliates then powerless for his pleasure
monster of the nation
he has love of weapons,knives and guns
he demands and never asks
he is a man of loose morals
he is the evil we all hate
as if he owns the world
he roams free in the streets of our nation
he lost track of yesterday and has no tomorrow
He roams the streets,day and night
he shows no respect to senior citizens
he bullies woman and children
he swears to anyone over everything
disrespect is his middle name
he is a monster
he finds joy in terror he plants in people
screams of woman and children
their fear completes his whole being
he has no emotions.he has no fear
he destroys everything he comes in contact with
he has no mother he has no creator
he has no shepherd
he fell like hail from hell,he rapes and kills
he humiliates then powerless for his pleasure
monster of the nation
he has love of weapons,knives and guns
he demands and never asks
he is a man of loose morals
he is the evil we all hate
as if he owns the world
he roams free in the streets of our nation
he lost track of yesterday and has no tomorrow
Let's all face it, We've all said, "we're off to da races!"
Thinkin we were all aces.
Many phaces, all different styles and phases, with many unlikely cases.
Seeks acceptance and approval.
Some from the gate detest and motion made for removal.
Leaves amany "shouldas", "couldas", "wouldas."
All wanted to be liked and not hated out of spite.
To be fancied and thought of as a delight.
With all meaningful accessories that goes with popularity.
And no irregularities with a hint of simularities.
Yet unique and not a freak could be classed as a geek.
Though the mind speaks......
Looking not forsaken but awaken to lovemakin.
Neither intimately nor any negative degree but agape.
Allows one to be free......
Favortism, can be a product of rejection because one wasn't the grandest
selection.
Therefore dissimulates oftentimes humiliates that berates one.
Determination with preserverence that is structured.
Produces paths, associations, and destinations uninterrupted.
