childhood and old age, in many ways are alike, but with an antithetical difference. when with time, as children grow steadier in steps and clearer in speech, the old become, staggering in steps and faltering in speech!

Pray to the Death

i feel like being left alone
i love being alone, i love my peace
yet contradicting this case is
where alone is antithetical to alone

i carry the burden of my dead dreams
looking for a cemetery under the trees
caught in the maze and in between my wishes
death doesn't comes to me even when i pray for it

Antithetical - Bitcoin Poem 076

Centralized power proves antithetical 
To your freedom - it’s quite pathetical

They ask us to be more ascetical 
And let them rule - it’s quite heretical

Collectivism fails! Not hypothetical 
Property and Liberty - quite synthetical

I’ll stand for freedom and wax poetical
It makes the message more aesthetical

The Indeterminate Constant.

All That Is And
All That Is Not.

Antithetical Product
Divided: [Quack.]

Superpositioned Entanglement
Touched By All Motive And
Motionless, Massless ENERGY!

Indeterminate Everything.

   As An Identity: 
Hoarse And Melodic
       Indivisble
    Inconceivable
    Indeterminate

The Spiritual - Material Nexus known as THE TRUTH




The Spiritual/Material Nexus is Biology and its material antithetical responses to "The Laws of Nature".

That process is fundamentally "Cooperative"; a symbiosis based on "Trust".

The successful Social Organism, "Civilization", operates the same way.

President Trump never speaks "The Truth".

A "Faithless" Government is a failure calling for immediate remediation or abolition to safeguard our Individual values.

Primal Magic

Surd and absurd are – at bottom – synonymous!
Absurd? 
Yes, of course.
So are canny and uncanny.
Sub- can mean high or (be)low 
Post- can mean Post- or Pre-!
Again, in Tamil, naatram once meant fragrance,
Now it's its opposite.

Antithetical meanings of primal words,
As noted by Freud,
And as endorsed by Bloom. 
Maybe a linguistic universal for Chomsky,
Freeplay for Derrida,
Language games for Lyotard,
And a mystery for us!

*****Ludens From Within

As a play, 
life moments and experiences,
antithetical to lore and summons.

Visiting the world by smiling and laughing.
All classrooms become living rooms.
Far from censorship, 
the political narrow-minded.
 
A sizeable sanctuary serves as a library,
the school's wings swing.

Jews cling to jewelry,
Moslem clutches the monsoon,
heartfelt and engaged.
 
Bnei Yisrael comes after Bani Israel?
Salam comes after shalom?
*****Ludens dances,
*****Faber flaps.

Entropy

A dignified statesman, 
A deified ‘Godman,’
A glorified star (of films or sports)
All tumble—
After a Starr report 
Or an HIV test 
Or a dope test.
Or maybe a Watergate 
Or a Coalgate. 
Media reports or media hype?
Whistle blowers
On whistle blowers—ad infinitum. 
God and my God are antithetical?
Is rape the norm—
Where Rama and Sita are worshipped?
Whatever your belief,
Call it Postmodern Era 
Or Kali Yuga
Or what you will, 
Will entropy be the norm?
