A Slave to Paradise
Becoming a slave to my own paradise, Becoming clingy with my own disregarded appetites, Becoming a prisoner of my own created prison, Becoming lonesome in my own crowd. Recognising something lethal, Pouring out something eternal, Bearing some dirt of civilisation, Tearing apart the burden of my own existence. I've created my own traps, Living forever in my own satire. No appeal on the docket today; I...

Always the slave of
Yes, master, I will throw away all emotions and abandon all sorts of love. I will bury all thoughts that soften the mind and banish my tears to the clouds above. I will cut out my heart to win and win, that is what we need to be, always, the slave of. (26.04.2025)...

Premium Member Slave of our mind
To eat when hungry and sleep when sleepy, at first sight sounds simple enough to do but when swamped by thoughts, fearful and creepy, we’re bemused by puzzles we need to sew, so know not that peace graced on but a few. Oh, to be a child again, free from strain, frolicking carefree in the monsoon rain!...

The Slave Chains of History
Chains never fall completely. Scars embed themselves like burns under the skin, And even though the skin is a body, it cannot hide the shadow of the irons. History screams, but its lips are sealed with silence, A silence oozing steel, blood, tears, sweat. They wanted to reduce us to shadows, But the shadow is the weight of the world trembling...

Technologies Slave
In modern times, it's plain to see. We are a slave to our own technology. It's more than a habit, it's quite an affliction. To see such mobile phone addiction. We scroll and swipe, but at what cost? The art of communication is lost. With every ding and every ping. Our lives revolve around every ring. Our eyes fixated on our screens. Oblivious to...

Water's Design
Too soft to describe with words Letters have sharp edges And speech can’t define If peace were a river I would be a leaf Falling in my deadness The freshness of green gone Helpless as I am Swirling in the wind Destined for the dirt But the water draws me close Flowing with alien weight The scent of hope and solitude Kisses my thirstiness My eyes overflow with the...
