By the sky god from sifted appurtenances.
Preserve of ancients jousting with modernity,
Behind edifice a disperse of brimming slums
With piles, heaps of filth, debris, decay and stench;

Role Reversal
If teachers were students,
They would certainly be prudent.
 
When they would get a teacher free class,
They would certainly be seriously studious.
 
None to dictate and lecture the class,
Would let them hit the books obviating usual...

Premium Member Obviating need to forgive
first stirred expectation, then denial
shroud of negativity, a dark cloud
betrayed we reacted, soul contracted
shattered was our heart that once stood so proud

feeling alone, despondent and forlorn
as chance had it, we were stung by a bee

What is it to see 
but never emerge from the dark? 

Children marvel at color,

perception,

The Drunken Elements
The midnight sea, 
Seeps through me, 
Departing me from melancholy.

Into thy branches of blissful breeze, 
Within a ray of sunshine enclosing;

Beneath thine silver chest-nut tree,
Amongst thine swirling dwellers,
In a womb thy heavens...

Premium Member Rashomon Effect
Rashomon effect, birthing confusion
Spawning divergent interpretations 
Each stage actor, being far from perfect
Narrates storyline, riddled with defect
Swollen egos, dwelling in delusion

Leading not to truth realisation
Self hypnosis, that we may gain...

Hesitation has two colourations
First being our ego calculation
The other, cessation in wonderment 
Delight of our childlike astonishment 
Former contraction, latter expansion

Far cry from ego borne agitation

Lest we forget
As we feel ecstasy within
We recognise need to re-begin
Obviating need of form to feel
The elixirous bliss appeal
Ceasing to resist
As a...
