My Odyssey
Here, I am...
Retired,
Happy,
Sitting on the relaxing throne of my age,
Reminiscing what I went through in life.
A mere spectator I have now become,
Observing in silence the works of men,
Having no worries
Of carrier advancement,
Of acceptance,
Of recognition...
Free at...

In My Language
In My Language
This you might not know is a conversation,
It’s a conversation not of persons.
This is a conversation of multiple languages.
If you could observe the functions of my mind,
You would marvel at the thought processes
Criss-crossing...

Deep Listening Communions
"The deepening perception
of the body's illusory nature
is one of the most profound
and inspiring realizations
we can have
to help us let go [of dying bodies and minds].
Deep listening
of our mind's transition-illuminating
flowing nature
is one of the most profound
empowering
enlightening

The Pit and the Pendulum
I think I found the prescription for the sickness behind my obvious problems
Or I found the key that fits in the lock of the door of ignoring them
I’m not sure which one it is...

Revolutionary Para-Dimes
A difference between compassion and sympathy,
between co-empathic passion
and unilateral YangPatriarchal-empathic,
ego-empowering intent,
Compassion matures passion FOR
into shared passion WITH.
This same emergent fluidity
cannot be said of sympathy
for suffering of Other,
who remains another dissociated Other
Exempted from democratic inclusion
in...

Welcome to the war, son ...
You’ve been conscripted,

And you daughters
of the new American flag,

Go get that gat outta my bag
There’s a 21st century civil war goin’ on,
and you...

Overcoming Cruelty of Hate
Awfully loathsome in its brutality
Hate's cruelty is evil in its entirety
As heart agonizes due to its torturous despicability
Belittling human dignity, affecting creation by its complexity...
With the attack of hate's cruelty
Unborn babes can't enjoy existence wondrous...

When I'M Gone
Incinerate my corpse when I'm gone,
It might sound weird but it's already decided alone,
Prudent it is,when you offer my wish,
Not to say,you're honouring my departures dish,
Not to think you're paying homage to me as tribute,
That...

The Fly and the Ant
A fly and ant, upon a sunny bank,
Discuss'd the question of their rank.
'O Jupiter!' the former said,
'Can love of self so turn the head,
That one so mean and crawling,
And of so low a calling,
To boast...

I Don'T Like You
The most devastating statement ever made.
So I guess the reaction after hearing this proclamation is totally humiliation
I mean it's pandemic not really mystic
After a long struggle of working out perfection to be...

As Usual She Did Not Take Part
I’ll never forget what’s her name
A PE teacher and ogre she became
For I was such a sickly child
it really made this ogre wild
Held in my hand a medical certificate
exempted from all things physical

The Pandemic
Staying home, I'm swamped in my handicraft
Paintings, drawings, all fascinating art
Sumptuous meals, I baked and cooked
My proud dish, I posted in facebook
Puzzles in my newsfeed, I proudly answered each
Idly, I enjoyed K-Drama and Netflix
.

'irreplaceable'
Irreplaceable!
This world that I know of, is, - 'the family's' living room,
visitors, weaving fabrics of many designs in this loom!
Generations searched, yet - still unaware 'where from'!
But, established a relationship and a working decorum!
Every equation...

Charity Princess
Succumbing to enchantment of creative fantasy
exempted from idolatry midst make-believe freedom’s ecstasy
I behold myself among charity princesses, exuding sweet fervency
melding Venus and Aphrodite’s attributes toward earnest love-excellency.
There am I sowing gracious kindness
never tolerating selfishness and...

Cold Poetry Soup, Part III
I prefer my soup hot and fresh.
But sometimes I like to change it up
With something cold, like Gazpacho.
It's still best fresh but still good when cured.
But when it spoils, it's just nasty and discarded.
Poetry never...

Cowboys Are Heroes
I never understand why some people
use ‘cowboy’ as if it were an insult.
I think they’d prefer somebody who
in the background cowers and sulks.
Someone who goes along to get along,
and never dares to buck and strain,
but...

Partying To Being Watch Party Hosts
Being gregarious by nature, they are not exempted
“No man is an island;” such they take as truth-prompted…
Hence, Partee and Friendee never want to be afflicted
by gatherings’ constrained, though they are affected.
With pandemic-caused community lockdown enforcement
