The Cost of Progress
Through ages past, we forged ahead, With gleaming tools where dreams were led. Soft metal pipes, they carried flow, Yet silent poison crept below. A glowing spark, in dials bright, Lit up the dark, but stole the light. Brushes kissed lips, an artist's pride, Yet bones grew frail as youth subsides. Fibers woven, fire's foe, In walls and mines, their curse would grow. Lungs turned...

Liturgy for the Damned of Progress
My wounded heart drinks deep from the rotting gut of misery, Humanity vomits its relics onto the oozing tiles of the real. I see kids chewing syringes like candy canes, Their innocence smashed, face down on the concrete of progressive decay, Strangled in the dungeons of a morality sold to the highest bidder. Starving bellies roar like weapons of war, But...

Simple progress
Before modernity Growth was only for living creatures With limited features But these days Even things can blossom With the magic of packaging Trees with start of spring Objects with getting packed And I with being with you We can all flourish As simple as that...

Fear and desire are chains we wear, until we become self-aware, first of all inquiring, ‘who’m I?’, which if not form, ego must die, that with the false out of the way and on making love our mainstay, eye single, pheromones mingle and we feel bliss rapture’s tingle, at first a cascading wave form, ushering currents cool and warm but then over time, bliss beat’s...

Prayer as sober as glow of each new day, it fuels potency of faith. Reflect, reclaim pursuit of peace, feel the simmering of your soul. As cool as envisioned course of action, nothing is left to chance. Cruise with ease into your mornings, flick no unfriendly light. Take time to be...

Though born a sinner, I shall be… A saint of God eternally. By Faith in Christ, great Hope I see. He is not finished yet with me. Though trials test and pain abound, His grace and mercies are my glee. His arms of comfort doth surround. He is not finished yet with me. Though sickness deals a heavy blow The great Physician hears my...

Glimpses of truth revealed from time to time, whilst useful, does not signal soul’s ascent, having neither etched in heart God’s love chime, nor granted bliss our unreserved consent, onslaught of lust, unable to prevent. Flickering awareness, a half measure, for there are attachments we still treasure and so at best it’s still work in progress, as we become nonchalant to pleasure, God’s light...

It's that time of year. Pictures are posted, Congratulations shared, Songs of joy expressed, And pride shining bright. Everyone cheers; the kids have passed. Reports are posted; This is it, what the year's been building upto. They're promoted a grade And happiness cannot be contained. Of course it shouldn't - they deserve it. As I look at it all, I am both happy and sad, I fear...

Progress?
The birds will still fly, and the fish will swim, But things may never be the same again. People may smile, but some cry inside, As others shout loud, far and wide. They destroy the land, in the name of progress, With claims of no harm, but we see the distress. The windmills, the solar, the lithium mines, They shrug their shoulders,...

People Of Innovation Progress
Don't just seat at home waiting to eat Make use of your brain so your hands Can find something to work So make use of your self. People who are innovative Are like synchronised And combined forces Can surely accomplish plenty. Heroes of resilient workers Shoulder to shoulder working Compassionate driving heart Teamwork are my country needs today....

With nostalgia Mom looks back to the year A little girl walking to Riverside Park, without fear Except for the bowery, no homeless on the street Kids played outside, lots of friends to meet. A chocolate bar was 5 cents, a penny was copper through You could buy a gun downtown, no-one would take it from you. It was a period...

Proceed my child, proceed
Proceed, my child proceed With a smile on your face With positivity and grace With compassion in your heart Proceed, my child proceed With strength in your mind leaving weakness behind With stars in your eyes Proceed, my child proceed With progress as your aim All the hardship you can tame With determination and zeal Proceed, my child, proceed ~Indira...

Serendipitous splendor soothes soulful scenes. Gracefully groomed, growing greens. Lustrous light looms, lasting like lingering lanterns. Youthful yellowing, yet yesterday yearns. Moonbeams meander, mesmerized midst melting moments. Extraterrestrial elements enlist exponents. Frenzied fireflies flutter, fulfilling fanciful florescent flashes. Sparkling, swishing splashes. Sycamores sway sweetly, so subdued, sounds softly sweep. Calm clarity closely causes comfort, combinations creep. ...
