Unequal Fire
Not all minds burn with equal flame,
Some flicker gently, some boldly claim
The heights of thought, few dare climb
Where intellect dances beyond time.
IQ may measure, but cannot define
The soul’s deep hunger for the sign,
For far-sighted eyes that pierce the veil,
And trace the truth where others fail.
Some walk the

Equal But Unequal
listen dear!
We have a lot in common :
the same sky, the same sea,
the same way forward
and the same sad eyes...
We are similar, but not the same....
We have wishes and dreams,
you have desires and aspirations,
we are human, intelligent,
educated, sophisticated
spiritualized but selfish,
stoic but relaxed,
attractive, without complexes...
we have all that we need
for happiness...
Only one thing sets us

Unequal You, Unequal Me
Imagine if you will,
a world of books where all the words
lead to the same place
no matter the beginning (no matter the middle)
A world where trees are never planted, never grow,
but always retain the same shape,
same number of branches, never varying
(not even a little)
Some don't have to imagine,
some want to make it true
Some want to mold

The Unequal Distribution of Sunset
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.

Unequal
This world of inequality
Mainly in times of torment
Finding fortune which is not lost
As world turns you at U-turn
Ready to move at your speed
Ready to stop at your death
In this world of inequality
The golden son with silver spoon
While guttering son in Stone spoon
In this world of inequality
Women hungers for power
While men has it without stress
In this

Mr. President
This world is full of hatred, people take their life for granted.
Kids going to school to learn but end up dead beside their books.

Unequal Partners
Why do you hold back?
Why can’t you go all the way?
“I love you” those are the words
That I want to hear you say
Don’t be half hearted
I need you one hundred percent
I don’t want you to be unsure
I want you to be content
You have to be sure
Content as I am in my choice
But you

Unequal
What's happening to the world?
Footballers are getting paid thousands a week. While the poor are starving, so sick and
weak.
Politicains corrupt and wrong. Spending hundreds on business lunches. Enough to feed ten
people.
What happening to the world?
Countries fighting countries
brothers killing brothers
mothers killing their children
lovers chaeting on lovers.
What's happening to the world?
Aids, rape,
