Long Shiv Poems

My eyes stare straight,
fixated on something in the distance,

Simulations and Symphonies

Discussing life inside a simulation
Amalgamating strife with signs of humiliation
Confronting life with positive configurations
An enchanting wife that doesn’t need invitations

Have I learned...

They knew the hungry wolf
Would like to pick them up,
And maybe score some ham,

So the three Little-Bigs,
All went to different places,
To slim down their

Leela is Mahadev's creation

Originated from creation here 

Colouring with all the breath 
In mind day night
In the greatness of devotion
