Scurrying on my way home, a little leaf catches my eye, and I am compelled yet again to slow down.

a whirlwind of thoughts
compete with swaying of trees~
lone leaf on my shoe

I am not sure exactly...

Here we are again
still
remembering our fair share of mutually invested identity,
where dreams swim to fuse together,
DNA with RNA eco-wombs written across the heart of all four sacred seasons
of star song's tidally ebb and flowing moon...

she pips in fear for lateness like her peers,

hauteur cloaked with reticence,

her-boo-boo-vague, though walled around and palpable

official Narcissist disguised in rude affronts

Bravado of naughtiness in candour yet tacit

 

“Free me to free me”, rants in...

How strong is your faith, 
In these Race days of Religions?
Do you believe in the righteous one, 
The “divine” who exists in everyone?
Tragically, the world has turned into a fireplace…
Forlornly now; there is rage in...

I’m worried and anxious and angry,
But I’ll never show it.
I’m scared lonely and insecure,
But I’ll never show it.
I’m depressed hateful and sinful,
But I’ll never show it.

Instead I’ll just pour icy water over my head
To cool...

I cannot tolerate the ones with haloed head
Who boast of their achievements, put on an act instead.
I cannot tolerate the perfect, always right
Who claim to love their neighbour omitting black or white.
I cannot tolerate the...

The venom drips, a sugared lie, 
A serpent's smile behind your eye. 
You claim to cherish, hold me dear, 
While whispering poison in my ear. 
A double-faced, deceitful thing, 
The cruelest song a hater sings....

The serpent's hiss, a venomous dart, 
Is honest hate, a tear right to the heart. 
But you, you whisper honeyed lies so sweet, 
A camouflage, a cunning, cruel deceit.


You smile so wide, a painted mask...

You are cruel and stopped counting your treasons
You're respected Muslim nevertheless.
You don't need to give yourself a true reason
To pray, it's scheduled five times nonetheless.

You do not appreciate expensive wine
Although you drink yet you abstain...

My muse rejoices in claiming that she's 'double-faced,
meaning she's comfy wearing leather or fancy Alencon lace.
Rebellious, she urges me to write lines of a violent battle
then she'll steal my pen to scribble some flowery prattle.

I’ve lost all my faith

Meeting people who were double-faced

Who caring nothing, except their money

Even if I’m simple and naive

Love leads me to believe

That everyone will find the land of milk and honey


I’m 22 years old

There is a girl, always alone in a side,
A few really know her, but none knows her hides.
She laughs. She loves. She screams. She flies at times,
Though to see her real face, no one tries.

I hate to look in the mirror
Afraid to see the truth
My conscience isn't clear
I play fast and loose

When I was chasing my dreams
My face expresses serenity
When I fall into sins

SHAME
Pretending what is not
avoiding what is so,
in learning how to do the things

Breaking all the rules you make
The game you've played so well
Intemidation at its worst
is all you have to...

He assures you he's truly 
a consensus guy;
autocratic ways and schemes he just 
doesn't buy;
and that he's all out for candid 
consultation
that makes for true bottom-up 
communication.


He tells you he's read your group's 
every suggestion

A Southern voice,
From a Northern city,
Life is harsh,
There is no pity
You beg
You crawl...
You cry your way out...
No one would come to your safety,
No one would dare,
It is all grey selfish...and blur
No shoulder to lean on..
