“If you actually succeed in creating a utopia, you’ve created a world without conflict in which everything is perfect. And if there is no conflict, there are no stories worth telling – or reading”
~ Veronica Roth
How boring could Utopia be
if we all did agree,
and if perfection is all we see?
That’s not a place I want to lee.
.
I relish cultures of variety
in and out mainstream society.
The freedom of unpredictability
is a sign of one’s individuality.
There is excitement in running free.
Or just being here, alone with me,
yields a sense of commonality
surrounding all with sodality.
Utopia is not found in impeccability
but rather in life’s fragility.
We make too much of predictability
when there is no absolute sterility.
Utopia is not humankind’s normality
but rather it’s in is adaptability.
Acceptance without impunity
may well-describe society’s community

There exists a generation of men,
Lavishly endowed with brainiacs,
Great souls already smitten and scourged,
but still invested with the dignity of immortality.
Nifty intellectuals from the Black race,
Arbiter of conducts with stabs at the back,
And gold medals on their chests,
Hearts from which fame sprang like sparks from an anvil.
They have influenced the world,
Yet, people are still wondering how they achieved that.
To the shallow minded men, it hits them like
A slow thought that crept like a cold worm through their brains.
I’m scribing about the free thinkers,
A name which sounds even now like the call of a trumpet,
A sodality devoid of fatal moral hollowness,
This might be deep almost as the mystery of life.
I’m one of them.

All is fair in love
and war,
But love is peace
and uproar is war,
Love is beginning
and end is war,
Love is start and
quit is war,
Love is true wrong
is war,
Love is affection,
abhor is war,
Love is pleasure,
grief is war,
Love is serenity,
bustle is war,
Love is passion,
oppression is war,
Love is calm, chaos
is war,
Love is solace,
turmoil is war,
Love a summit,
ebbing is war,
Love is comfort,
terror is war,
Love is friendship,
enmity is war,
Love is sodality,
outcast is war,
Love is smoke, fire
is war,
Love is fruit, ash
is war,
Love is life, Death
is war,
Love is everything,
Futile is war,
Love is Love and War
is War,
So love is fair, but
not war.

No matter If history be repeated to war or battle,
Will go back fight and won the medals for chest,
Neither be retreated or nor give up from battle zone,
Until I led the combat to conquest,
For even at the last breath and drop of blood,
Adhere to delimitation line till the peace and rest,
And if the essence of mother soil vanished,
Put forth my brow sweat to saturate this placidity harvest,
Make them grow, and buoy up with ocean flow,
So, this land become the mighty, at his best,
Encompass whole fragrance of brotherhood and sodality,
Endeavor for honor, tranquility, and resurrect,
After all now I can take deep puff and pass away,
Attribute this patriotic poem to countryman sanest,.
And I Shahid pray, supplicate and invocate, that you,
May be the place of harmonious, pleasant zest.
