By Tanvir Mostafa
Where are our those days, where is our lost society?
What we behold right now—is it the proper system of community?
Does goodness prevail or exist in the mid of us really?
We find soundness of reason and justice only occasionally.
Many a poet says the world is the right place for love and peace,
But perhaps that thought belonged to their own time, not this..
This is the time of anarchy, violence, and indiscipline,
We find people talk about problem and suffering.
Now people deal with science and technology,
But many noble souls died for their ideology..
People in this modernity, with what they have, can’t remain happy, Their restless minds still chase a missing harmony.
How can I embrace the sayings of poets?
Instead of love and peace, the world is a place of riots.
Deadly weapons are made to put an end to lives,
As if only hatred and bloodshed survive.

With no vengeance let us behave
But, to tell the truth, let us be brave
We must expose our displeasure
And reveal the suffered-pressure
At times, we may be damn desperate
As someone's act may exasperate
At that moment, we get frustration
We may perform an act of operation
Any wrong act must be by us opposed
Perfect punishment must be imposed
We must never tolerate any indiscipline
Any irregularity we must have to clean
Some people have sarcasm as a habit
They will make none comfortably sit
By offering comments and severe force
Bad influence they will try to enforce
Observe the truth and act with wisdom
Though none can cheat God's kingdom
Pray and leave everything to the Lord
He will rescue as His heart is broad.

OH!
You punched holes in my system
Now, I am incontinent
I can't hold water for a second
You blame it on indiscipline
You licked my mind
Now , I am permeable
I can't sieve immigrant thoughts
You blame it on gullibility
You dragged my true self
Now, I am a masquerader
I can't meet the world without the mask
You blame it on cowardice
You attack every step of mine
Now, I am calculative
I can't choose expediently
You blame it on Indecision
Oh Society !!!

THE WARRIOR
If Pandemonium prevails all around,
Public put in chaotic plight,
arrogance anger in fight,
disorder and disobedience surround
We need you, the bold warrior
as the rescuer.
Eccentric erotic steps in effrontery,
Malice, mischief mended in massacre.
Outrageous turmoil ignites tormentor
Indiscipline, incorrigible crisis in territory
We need you, the bold warrior
as the rescuer
Dedicated devoted hero to volunteer
service to innocent populace at best
neither for fame nor for self- interest.
Proficient competent fighter to steer.
We need you, the bold warrior
as the rescuer.

THE IRREVERSIBLE FACTOR
‘There is time for everything’.
We have all been saying
All the time in our mouths and minds
But in reality this does not surface in our lives, which I mind,
I blame it on poor planning and indiscipline,
Which are clear in our daily lives, and it’s plain.
A fish does not live on land and birds in water,
Neither do elephants fly.
All have places they habitat.
And so is time; no change, no exchange.
The opportunity today is irreversible tomorrow.
That opportunity when it may come again takes a different façade.
A flying elephant can have a chance in an art gallery,
A nice painting of a bird under the sea and a standing fish on land
Can but give an artistic representation of impossibility.
Passing time has no representation again in both reality and fanciness,
But a history of no amends and reversibility.
If there is no event on a given time,
It becomes insignificant but only takes away a chunk of our limited duration on earth!

BE BRAVE
Arrogance, squabble in perplexing plight
Public in anger, aggression only to fight.
Incorrigible incredible chaotic crisis.
Notorious nefarious nastiness needs Nemesis.
Outrageous turmoil ignites blunder.
Come on soldier not to surrender.
Noisy nuisance indiscipline to recur
Malice mischief mended in massacre.
Pandemonium prevailing amidst of devils
Prime time to eradicate crimes and evils.
Oh Warrior! Slash smash tormentors: Be bold.
Be merciless, ruthless to unsheathe your sword.

In divine school there is a boy who does blare
The horn of indiscipline all over the school bare
Met me very day when I furiously did glare;
Felt though sad and bad, moved a bit with prayer
I intended to sing for him to change without spare.
Kabir is that boy who was found on hostel stair -
Roaming and singing and running like a hare.
Moved by ‘No one is lift behind’ by me. “Beware!
You have to be careful.” I used to say at square.
Now is the time, when he has changed a lot by flair
Which he had in him – half known to him I swear.
Then was the naughty boy, one of the corsair –
Now is the sincere and calm though no so clever.
I know that in future he will be a successful bear
Who may forget me but I will never to such mare.

CONSCIENCE
TIME OF THOUGHT:LOSS
DATE OF THOUGHT:LOSS
The uncorruptible judge of universe
Voice of mans spirit
The breaker of the stone heart
He pounds the accused heart to confess
A mortal pessile
The road that punishes
The accuse mind
He chastises the mind of kings and priest
He makes the most secretive person to voice out
The arch angel in our heart
Mr no nonsense
He is no respecter of anyone
He changes the mood of a friendly one
Whenever he misbehaves
He never condone any indiscipline
He shout at his environment
Whenever he notices any bad deeds
The ever faithful companion
Dear friend
Dear ally
Do you have any?

Unsafe unfriendly uproar as if in bedlam.

Tele text to my precious pearl
Elegant victor in a nine ribs design
Star-studded pageant that i know first
The teacher i cannot pay salary
Her sadness she hides to make me live
Even when doubt, hatred and many to quit clouds she resist
Returning soldiers of long lost to their barracks for reformation
Always on the toe to fend like a lone ranger
Doing so much to think womb man is also a Lancelot
Ever consistent source of inspiration
God made for so many she knows not
Intolerance for indiscipline i have schooled from
Talking , toiling , and always working to enhance result
Esther, you are called; but i prefer a conqueror cause you have won so many battle to be called a KING.

Night comes,
Day looms and goes,
I become older
And older
And a little bit older
With the
Hope
Of maybe, maybe
Less pace of my aging –
Of loosing the dreams,
Romance, indiscipline and so on –
Thinking,
Like a lost sailor,
Putting the hat down
After so many years in the sea,
Where –
Where I am
Going;
No destination, mere –
Destiny?
Asking himself,
Why?
Dark clouds and the
Same moon,
And those stars –
Where are we all going?
Together or
Discrete?
Vow of silence
Comes
With Shear
Consciousness-
But tickling of eyes
Fade away.
Morning comes
To go by soon.
Forgetting his uncertainty
Sailor hopes again –
Maybe,
Maybe there’s something,
Eternal;
Separate
or together with him
with less pace till
the last step
towards the destination
or destiny.
Bestow innocence,
And sincerity-
unto me.
Explode my heart,
once more and again.
Saturate me;
With ache-
and farce.
Give charm,
on everyone
And also glee;
Reward innocence-
and sincerity
unto me.

Nigeria we hail thee !!!
Nasty things everywhere
Indiscipline here and there
Giants looting nation to bleed
Everyday corruption thrives
Recycling of old looting gang
Ineptitude from head to toe
All angels fall none to praise.
What manner of leadership is this?
Even in God’s houses money flies.
How long shall we bind our mouths?
And see our wealth going down the drain
If only we could bark and bite a bit
Looting will cease and nation will grow.
Today we should all begin to talk
Heaven helps those who help themselves
Except something is urgently done
Every saint will perish only rogues will live

I doubt ,God is there,
Inspecting every atmosphere's layer;
Wrong people have something to dare,
Getting the right one is rare,
Corrupt acquiring the king's chair,
Good ones are paying wrong deed's fare;
Sons are forgetting parental care,
It's difficult to search lifelong pair;
Indiscipline , riots are like silent killer,
Sitting what are you doing fortune writer;
Selfishness is the main cause,
Cutting the money from person's jaws;
In GITA you told you will be there in good people's side,
When the wrong things are in roller coaster's ride;
We all need some of your beatings in dose,
Punish us to stand in toes;
Your existence now need a proof,
Don't just watch from sky's roof;
Communalism is at its best,
Your action are required to pass the test;
Give us the light for the right path,
Showering in Ganges won't perish devil's bath;
You are the Supreme Commander of all,
Stop all this nonsense and daily wars;
We need you now, we need you a lot,
See how we have been caught here.

KITTEN HATER
To help address the mouse problem
With which the world is smitten
(God knows, we have enough of them)
My cat has just produced another kitten.
The indiscipline of kittens is not welcome -
They won’t soon catch a mouse,
The curtain climbing, table walking, and then some -
They just don’t care about the rules of the house.
And it’s like catching a pin cushion.
When they jump on me from the stairs in the hall.
It’s then I sometimes get a notion :
I wonder if mice are really so bad after all?
