Premium Member A CAPITALISTIC PERSPECTIVE ON WAR: A TANKA QUINTET FLOW

Bombs begetting bombs, 
War mongers are safe and sound;
Others being bombed:
The bombing of others reaps
Bloody power over them

No matter who dies,
Nuclear war bombing pays off;
Bombs begetting bombs:
Millions spent creating bombs;
Trillions reaped from their bombings:-

War is a business,
Nuclear bombs produced and sold;
Low cost drones offered:-
War is for power;
So is capitalism:-

Just do the homework:
Democracy is one thing;
Power control, another:-
Watch the news on war today:
It’s about finance; not life:-

Why not target peace?!:
What peace reaps is beyond cost,
And invaluable:-
We all share in peace’s reaping;
Not just the power mongers:-

I want to sell

Come on
 Come on 
 At my newly opened store 
 Om shanti om .

  Where I want to sell 
  Hill of nothings 
 That occupied almost all 
 Space of my beautiful mind. 
 Om shanti om 

 Tensions and anxieties
 Hatred and partialities
 All useless thoughts
 That disturbs
 My peace of mind
 I just want to sell. 
 Om  Shanti Om 

 Haunted sweet memories
 With some quality times
 Loyalties and honesties 
 That have no buyers
 Some jealous and careless friends 
 At low cost and heavy discounts 
 are available at my store 
 Which I want to sell. 
 Om Shanti Om 

 Come on
 Come on 
 My dear ladies and gentleman 
 At my store 
Om Shanti Om .(God bless peace and love to whole world).

Who Won

Today as the new president is inaugurated 
Another conference is held 
It is called the Global Labor Market
When this goes through employers can
 temporarily import workers from low-cost countries
Elon Musk can import workers at his plant 
In Texas for nine dollars an hour
With this organized labor will cease to exist 
To the detriment for us all

Premium Member Glass Half Empty

Whether you're half full or half empty,
When you're upside-down like Humpty-Dumpty, 
No matter how you spin it,
Your glass has nothing in it.

Epilogue

If you're shattered when you begin,
You won't be made whole again - 
That is, unless you take a look 
At my low-cost poetry book.

Premium Member Guess Who


15 October 1931 was his date of birth,
He is a man of infinite worth. 
Rameshwaram was his birthplace,	
Poverty was a villain in his case.							
						
A very down-to-earth man;	
As a paper boy, his life, he began.
He was a hardworking student;
And was always very prudent.

A low-cost coronary stent,
Along with a cardiologist, he did invent.								
As a ‘Missile Man’ he is well known,
For the talent that he has shown.

He supported Uniform Civil Code,
Upon him, Bharat Ratna was bestowed.
He is the darling of the youth;
Doubt not an ounce, for it’s the truth.
						
He was a relentless fighter,
A great orator, and writer.					
All good virtues in him we see;
Can you guess who is he?

Premium Member Over the Pill

Red one
Blue one
Old on
New one
Ah heck
Side effects
I think I am 
Due one

They’ll flatten
Or fatten
Always been
In Latin
Or tongue twistish
Latinglish
To patent
A statin

But I’ve had my fill
And summoned the will
To say bye to the ill
Coz I’m over the pill

There were lots
Of drug shots
That I got
For clots
And sun spots
To slow snots
And fix rots
As a tot

I shopped ‘em
And stocked ‘em
Then popped ‘em
Or swapped ‘em
I ravaged
And damaged
Til a salvage
Was managed

Lived in sin
To my kin’s
Own chagrin
I was lost
And was tossed
‘Til therein
Bought low cost
Vitamins

I’ve shaken
The achin’
Forsaken
The fakin’
Nor more need
Of needles
As I’m free
Of evils

I’m not yet over the hill
But have had more than my fill
And I at last, have the will
To be so, over the pill

A Low Cost Christmas

December comes every year
Bringing joy laughter and cheer
Fillings hearts with lots of love
Shining like an angels love

Christmas is a time to show
Others your sweet inner glow
Giving presents you don't wrap
Not falling in the buying trap

Free gifts are the very best
Come on put it to the test
Give someone the present of
Kindness wrapped in heartfelt love

Hugs fit every shape and size
Return this gift---you'll be surprised 
At how this will mean so much
From a warm and gentle touch

Premium Member This Must Be Hell

This must be Hell

Myanmar a place far away 
Where the men in charge
Executed the ex-Pm and 
Several other ex-men
I read this and found it disturbing. 
How easy it is to sign a death warrant, 
Dispose of the rubbish, 
Destroy families with the stroke of pen. 
How cheap is life? 
Yet no sleep is lost.
A sigh of relief 
At such a low cost
A shallow grave 
Without the formality
But a name that might
Gain immortality.
Wipe your enemies
From the face of the earth
Rape a few women
And watch them give birth
Wonderful world
Deadly smell
There must be a heaven
Because this must be Hell.

Premium Member Fireworks and Champagne

A new year is approaching fast,
this one will be over at last.
We crave to socialize, that's plain, 
and yet we shouldn't be too smug,
covid is still a superbug.
This virus continues to drain
our resources with tasking trials,
for older folks and juveniles.
Yet, wearing masks is not in vain,
they're both effective and low-cost,
used once, then conveniently tossed,
although often worn with disdain.

A new year is approaching fast,
think today, don't dwell on the past.
Soon loved ones will gather again,
and we'll finally get that hug
that's far better than any drug.
And breaking free of covid's chain,
we'll unmask the beauty of smiles
and resume our lifestyles.
Go out to dine or board a plane,
reclaim those precious moments lost.
Celebrate life, despite the cost,
and put aside our tears and pain.

Let's be hopeful and less downcast
it's time for fireworks and champagne,
the human spirit's unsurpassed.

A Dish Not To Miss

Breadfruits like bread to eat from staples 
Green,artistic skin bit hard not like apples

Long grown and thick bread fruit trees 
Big like stars in all angles broad leaves 

Heavy natured,low cost to all as please 
Time to time this item in markets released 

All fruits ripen tasty but not bread fruit
Some fruits only to cook bread one fruit 

Yellow past so taste no waste of this 
All wish this dish in seasons not to miss

Soul Food Cook Out

its on the grill
 pots is fill
it low cost bill
the park where it started
its   a tasks on the gress
where  no doudt
its a
SOUL FOOD COOKE OUT

Premium Member Low Cost Airline

With the rules she is quite savvy
Yet she has to pay a levy
She knows for a fact
The weight is exact
But, madam, she is top-heavy.

What's So Controversial About Non-Violence

The stuff is pain-free,
low cost,
keeps tempers down,
wins friends,
makes wars obsolete,
feels good, and combats aggressive behaviors
among the children. 

In fact, the very wise once stood for it,                                                                 

taught it,
lived by it
and tried to change the world.

Their names were quite well-known:
Jesus, Mohandas, Martin, Dag, Dennis, Allen.
We praised them for their greatness and their fame--
but stopped our ears at what they said.

A few still live--the rest
have faded fast away into a memory
that most can scarcely dream--
indeed, will scarcely have the time
after the toys are gathered up,
the video games shut down,
the internet in slumber mode--
and yes, last quarter coming up
for that big football match
upon the giant 60 inch TV
that we added in the den.

Oh yes, that too displays
a bit of violence now and then.
But, what ya gonna do?
We live in the 21st century, now.
