Short Unequal To(P) Poems

Mom.
You
hold me
like high-end
jewel so precious.
Your love is endless and enough
to me, you are perfect, unequal among the rest.

What you see right now is not what I want for you
It is not the final version
Give yourself rest
Know what I want for you is unequal
Love in you loves all
Live 
Love in understanding
Love in amazement
Love in knowing
On high
Love 
Lord...

Conceived love is limited
The love
by a transparent future,
by an opaque past,
by a shadowy present
is protected and destroyed
by an unequal society
as it grows,
but it does its best to grow old
And it gives way to another love
within it....

As a tribute to Sir Edmund Clerihew Bentley 
I now write this unique form- consequently 
Two rhyming couplets, with line lengths unequal 
I'll tribute myself...in my clerihew sequel

EQUATIONS


Equality’s balance
Quaking at fulcrum’s pain
Unequal forces
Antagonized by
Theoretic nonchalance,
Immune to the folly
Of reason’s
Nuanced
Serendipity.

The spires take a patchwork of blonds, 
The pavements, a not-so-shiny copper,
To the harbour go a few drops of bronze,  
Even clouds get but a listless amber,

Though when long day is growing old, 
The sun, parting, never forgets to rain 
On you, on no other, a splurge of gold....

While love blinds,
friendship opens your eyes!

only friendship
makes unequal
equals...

If love is fickle
and may leave,
friendship is more durable
and can stay!

there was never friendship
in friendships that
  start and end...

friendship is almost
marriage...
Sans carnal conjunction!...

Pot that cooks many tasteful souP
Over and over like love of crescendO
Enticing the lustful lost eyes to tastE
Tree with many branches like the tastemenT
Rendered in an unequal mouth, different thinkeR
Yam sliced by different hand yet very handY.

She married at the age of 19
For over 70 years
worked for husband.
set the table,
took care of children
With parents-in-law
their distant relatives and neighbours
Cared for them

Losing job and family
Drifting
drunk people,
beaten and kicked out by husband
Bring a woman
she ate together

She thought love was the best,
but her love was also unequal....

Entered in “relevance”
Exit by consequence….

To the measure of temporary.. and unequal flaws,
While passions “unknown” court an unseizeable throne,

Ignite the cerebral and  insight in emerging stages, 
As the “wise” of life contends and contests,

Amid turbulent changes and far ranging rage!
On such signs ends an age...

Perfect and lacking the words dance in my head.
Perfection is a belief that should stay dead, 

To lack information instead.
Learning that I can grow that must stay.

Perfection and lacking two unequal words,
Perfection is a lie, a victory never reached.

Lacking nothing is a belief that gives hope and sweet peace.
Perfection not needed here, simple trust without fear....

Why do you act like you own me,
be careful,
confidence is an unequal attitude you know,
it can turn you into a violent creature,
questioning not authority, nor yourself,
yet confronting everyone,
with confident paranoid ranting,
star spangled banter,
rocking the boat at any cost,
adding science fiction to fact,
then subtracting desperate tries to turn cog insecurity,
into a star mask....

Since birth,
 my body has been
 a battlefield,
 mined by firecrackers
 of unequal feelings...
 I treat my wounds,
 since time immemorial...
I live in a state of war,
Permanently...
I survive because I only live as
Inwardly carry my life  as I live,
even within this chaos,
 external world...
    Against This catatonic dystonia,
 heals and relieves me, poetry...
 Poetry gives me refuge
 and this peace...!...

On Jerusalem's  shinning spectre
London wastes away
On bus Non speaking Englishman
in England's fair open land
The border centres have a heavy load
from your tired, tireless migrants
Tent cities erected in West End
human capital indivisiblely wasted
Crisis queues at A and E
14 years of  Tory waste
The Bird of prey
on England's blight
Give Labour a chance
invest in peoples power
stop unequal development up North

The silent screaming
Is it deafened by what we choose to hear?

The men of money
Who control power by fear

Humanity is broken
For what is humanity if not self-serving?

Unequal world living?
But does equal means no one can win!

Too many people left hurting
Too many lives left broken

The silent screaming
Listen closely and hear their tune in the wind

The tune of the silent dying
Is what too many people have to sing....

Talking and walking alone in the pavement
Whine of children breaks silent to their parents
The red lights a road up, we stop till green

Old lady with upturning hands
Said “give me a coin!”
Was ignored by everyone sense

Children sits under a big tree
Laid above some packs of cardboard
Was oppressed with atmosphere

Tears between ordinary and the upper
Means unequal of possibility class
Peace had gone, simply over a piece gap...

We were three, though unequal but warriors
Like the herdsmen we were
A glance tells of Our Genesis
All bound in one future

On our way came ghosts white
Scepter they posed  
Extorting and painting us white
Suddenly we woke, we the warriors

In extricate we intricate
Till they went as they came
Our dreams climaxed in one faith
Far not from there, one said to another

Thou are a ghost
What I heard was groans, our fate I know not....

Why does Congress still have a Black Caucus?
Do we still need the N.A.A. C. P.?
Congress says we are all equal
The law says that everyone’s free
We would never allow a White Caucus
Although white is a minority
They can’t pursue unequal advancements
Though discrimination there be
So let’s drop these race focused groupings
Let’s put race issues back on the shelf
Let’s act like we really are equals
And let everyone fend for themselves!

Na shaad na baad na azmey aleshaan
Na akhovat na hamdardi Pakistan ka nizaam
Har ja har so badmashon ka istaqbaal
Thano kacheriyon adalton me chalta hai maal
Ye afsoos ka maqaam kahan hai saya zuljalaal?
Note. Na Zindagi shama ki sorat na naiki ki tamana
Jahalat Kay andheray mein har fard yahan Alam chana.
Lesson. Pakistan is not a welfare state and the weak
Have no access to justice. We are living in an unequal
Society where the rule of law no longer covers the poor....
