Crippling FearsXenophobia is a one-eyed monster,
the fear is so debilitating
that home is all the world one needs.
But when fear of strangers turns to prejudice
against people from other countries,
it's time to analyze the problem at its root.
When do we stop feeding the hate
that's rampant in this world of ours?...

Laugh and the world laughs with you“We are all here on Earth to help others; what on earth the others are here for, I don’t know.” - W. H. Auden
Everyone wants to be a comedian,
some are better at it than others.
The many types of humour range
from dark & bitter to kind & thought-provoking.
Sometimes there's room for interpretation
where depth of meaning...

What becomes of a world?The trees ache with a pain only those who have witnessed true horror
The swinging rope moping for it had been turned to a killer
The threads unravelling trying to escape
A maze with no end
Running, running, running Away
Yet still can't escape its fate
A fallen leaf a tear of the tree
Weeping for a...

Imagination
Quote By Albert Einstein
Imagination is more important than knowledge.
Knowledge is limited.
Imagination encircles the world.
A treasure trove of worlds is in our mind.
On any given day we all can find.
An interlude, where we would rather be.
It just takes our imagination see!
If we are feeling down, then we can...

Mathemagical WorldIf the world was run by John Conway,
or our young friend, Terrence Tao,
things would run smooth and efficiently,
and this is most provably how -
with the Sieve of Eratosthenes, it could be done.
Boys and girls would have so much fun.
and every boat and sailing ship
would glide upon a Mobius strip,
costing but...

Let my ignorant bliss be - 2I see Maya as a video game
If its software gets decoded,
No more a tiger, life looks cat-like tame
If source code’s breached, its secret spread.
By mere digits, by dots and dashes made,
Innocence still’s no bliss, but shame,
Where so knowledge burns bright if ignited,
Fun fizzles out and life walks...

Let my ignorant bliss be - 1When and if I wake up and see
That life is not but illusion,
World too is no more there for me,
And there’s no more joy under sun.
It is as if all props are out,
Realities on my face stare,
In awful doubt I show my pout,
Where’s life’s thrill if wisdom’s laid bare?
My...

World visioncheck the way we look
seems we were mistook
notice vast space wink
when with it we link
the way we begin
from space looking in
feeling not thinking
focus unblinking
as we so evolve
space and time dissolve
pheromones mingle
our eye is single
within each atom
God’s the substratum
known when we are still
whence voids within fill
ego illusion
causes delusion
our meditation
is thought cessation
nodes within align
let light...

The Green Fields of Leisure WorldHear the tale of the green fields where I roam,
Leisure World, the place that I call home.
If you take strolls (a healthy habit),
at dawn or dusk, you'll see a rabbit.
(If you were faster, you could grab it)
You'll see four-legged, curly-haired cuties
who lead their pets while they do their duties,
and grey-brown squirrels on their haunches
meticulously chewing their...

Inner World Of A Tormented MindLike a dust that has been blown away
If I only had the chance to really say
But I can only stand on the dock of a bay
Within this soul there is a empty world inside
With no one near or anybody far
Not even a single wound or a mere scar
No love, hate or pride
Just a place where...

the woman from tippy toppy worlda woman lived in a tippy toppy world.
went by the plain name of old Gerald.
her husband's name was Hannah,
and had a son called Susanna.
she would butter her jam,
and eat her toast with grainy sand.
she put her knickers on her toes,
and wore her shoes on her nose.
everyone walked on their hands,
upon the tippy toppy lands,
a place...

New World, New DesireNew World, Old Design
Dead the present. Memory the past
Can’t find the space. For love. Life
Can’t live—this life. Unloved. Pressure
I need. Just live. Alone. Maybe find love
I want the past. Again. Feel. Hope. The hope
But new life. Presented the past. My design
Leave the past. Live the past. Loved design
New World, my life. We want. The new...

The Ruling EliteThey wear no crown, yet kings they reign,
Invisible hands in shadowed domain.
Their thrones are silence, veiled from sight—
Yet nations move by whispered might.
You vote, you cheer, you wave your flag,
But strings are pulled beneath that rag.
The leaders bow, the crowds applaud—
But who commands? Not whom you laud.
Money—their gospel, gold—their law,
They script your fate with subtle...

In Kensington TodayThe factories long disappeared,
Silent structures still stay;
And more drugs than dreams have appeared,
In Kensington today.
The north of the Ave has its shine,
Less fine, southerly way;
Best Philly, and worst, intertwine,
In Kensington today.
Six miles, in a small corner curled,
“What matter?” you may say;
Well, the world is here, here’s the world,
In Kensington today.
