Once I was a preserver
a wayfarer 
a maker
but later
you turned me into a useless stargazer
by losing the will of being your tracer
I ceded my kismet on becoming an engraver

I grew to be nothing but a moveless eraser...

in a deadlock dance

                                             tapping earth

                                    
                                   
                                       who let the men lead?

Happiest memories are the moments with you
even thought of separation makes me blue.
Missing you with every tic-toc
a second without you is a deadlock.
The moment we come together is monsoon drizzle
bringing an end to the long-drawn-out grizzle.
Your smile is command of nature
 when thee sneer, you make me nurtured.
Your laughter brings life to life
claspin’ the enemies, forgettin’ the strife....

This physical world is
a world of blind cravings

Every person alive a mark
tablets of want are stuck
Inscribed on every  skin

Red paint of yellow jealousy
shines on every forehead

Terraced feet of crazy walk
indicate world trots for riches

Broken teeth of every human
witness bitterness in crazy life
made in  deadlock cravings

Crazy, crazy is human life
searching, searching feet go
but not a single satisfaction...

Friction
Dereliction
Tattoo addiction

Drones
Bunk loans
"You're fired" immune deficiency syndrome

Boatloads
Troll roads
Hipster mustachioed

Deadlock
Rhetoric squawk
Locker room talk

Medication
Gene mutation
Social syndication

Accuse
Right to choose
Hashtag abuse

Getting fatter
Online chatter
whose lives matter?

Political turbidity
Global humidity
Pokemon stupidity

Going viral
Vinyl revival
Fallen idyll...

The thought doth knock,
On mind’s wooden doors,
Haughty reason roars:
“This is a deadlock!”

Raging reason calls,
Words armed with letters,
With chains and fetters,
To guard the mind’s walls.

Thought’s rosy fingers,
Fondle the mind’s hair,
Reason to despair,
With mind lingers.

The thought then lies,
In mind’s open arms,
Reason without charms,
Thus mournfully sighs.

Thus the battle won,
Thought tamed by words,
Winged lettered birds,
The poem is done!...
