Peaks of the heaps.



Every heap will have a peak,
That it can be proud of. Be it.
Let the bigger one applaud it
It promotes peace and harmony.

The poetry for 2010 ends

Terminators



A shepherd is the terminator
Of the sheep that he tends and grows.
The God is the people’s terminator.
Both of them believe in their terminators.
28.12.2010


Hard to trap.













A woman’s desire for a man
Will not let her yield herself
Unless she ensures for herself
That he is hers at any cost.

27.12.2010

A culprit is over taxed.



I did some fraud that came out.
I was held as a culprit.
Then there is a surge all around
To implicate me in other crimes

I bought pieces of land from some
For more than the market price
And sold them later twice higher.
Now they complain I’d cheated.

I did fevours to some women,
Who granted me intimacy
And exploited my weakness.
Now they complain that I’d raped.

27.12.2010

The ultimate escapism




She gave me her heart and flesh.
She bore me a child and faith.
Now we lean on each other.
Each wishes to die earlier.

27.12.2010.

The scandal kills love














When a scandal breaks out
The woman would tell lies
That she has been harassed [sexually]
And the man would tell lies
That she has slept with him.
Desperate to escape is she.
Safe to implicate her is he.

25.12.2010

Begging is sweet



Even begging will be sweet
If the giver is indebted to you
Or the begged thing is trivial
Or you beg for someone else

25.12.2010

The ungrateful dog



I have been given good times.
Let me face bad times too.
I have been given successes.
Let me taste failures too.
I have been shown to fortunes.
Let me bear with misfortunes too.
Otherwise, I’m an ungrateful dog.
25.12.2010


No one will stick anyone




He befriends me and others as well.
She is in love with me and others.
Why must her poly-love agitate me?
You can’t have one exclusive for you.
25.12.2010


Longing too dies



I no longer long for
What has gone stale
Or what I have got tiered of.
I no longer long for
Who has hurt me
Or who has switched over.
Longing dying, suffering ceases.
As old, we least long for the world.

25.12.2010

The intense chuckle



When I feel proud of myself I chuckle.
Let it be my cast, rank or my product.
When someone says that he is proud of me
I chuckle and that chuckle is more intense.

25.12.2010

^Intimacy is feared














Lovers fear secrecy
As they both have secrecy.
Intimacy means connecting
The inner core of the two,
Which will expose their weak spots,
Fearing which they fear intimacy.
They want bodily intimacy
Without soul’s intimacy.
Such intimacy betrays trust
And will wreck the very love.
15.12.2010


I’m a clown.



Call me a clown
As I do everything
For an applause.
Aren't you amused?
Let me be a clown.

Call me a clown
As I do everything
For my belly.
Aren't you amused?
Let me be a clown

Sex has no rules



Tom was my close friend.
Jane was my sweetheart.
Now they are lovers.
In sex there is no rule.

13.12.2010

The can can empty.



One to lose [death] one’s wife
Is a can losing its beer.
One to drop [deserts] one’s husband
Is the beer losing its can.
Man can’t withstand the latter.

14.12.2010

Why does marriage count?



















Marriage gets better with time.
Live-in gets worse with time.
Marriage is the cell bolted outside.
Live-in is the cell bolted inside.
13.12.2010


To act as lover is hard.




When I acted as a king,
I didn't feel being a king.
When I acted as a clown,
I didn't feel being a fool.
When I acted as a lover
I couldn't feel otherwise.
12.12.2010


Hatred and pity




A cat chasing a rat,
I will fevour the cat
If I have hatred for the rat
And I will favour the rat
If I have pity for the rat.
Hatred and pity control,
Besides sex, one’s action.

12.12.2010

All to impress




I dress to impress.
I speak, read and write
To impress others.
Do I express myself?
Even to express is
Primarily to impress.
12.12.2010


The salvation


Religion is an organized unit,
A frozen thought of man,
Symbolized by temples and churches,
To catch hold of masses,
Who respond with hopes and fears
And in the process
They get solidification
And not any salvation.

11.12.2010

The real confidence



Confidence that comes
With hope, faith and belief
Is conditional.
It musters strength but
Cannot ensure success.
Real confidence comes
Through one’s discovery.
11.12.2010

Freedom space bound



Freedom from the cell results
In bondage outside the cell.
Freedom from anger that
You get by resistance
Or freedom from sex
That you get by sublimation
Will not give you freedom
But bondage outside of them.
Freedom shifts as desires do
In one’s life till it wrecks.

11.12.2010.

War



War is the expression
Of one’s inner conflicts.
War exists in all dealings
As the result of conflicts,
Within and without.
You can’t eliminate it
Unless wisdom overpowers it.

11.12.2010

What is wisdom?



Wisdom is not the accumulated memory.
It is much more. I and mine must go.
Wisdom cannot be bought or sought.
What is in you will unfold as wisdom.

11.12.2010

Will power is powerless.



I have my will and you have yours.
My will tries to prevail upon you
And yours on me in turn
And there’s a tug-of-war.

A will is an inward conflict,
An inward opposition.
It cannot help you be free
From the bondage you’re in.

11.12.2010

The mind projects it.

I believe in God for others do
And for I was taught so as a child.
That belief has been handed down
Generation after generation.

Believing in God will not alter
My life nor its destiny either.
Ignoring God makes no difference.
God exists as the mind projects it.

11.12.2010

God men aren't god finders




To belief in a thing is equal to
Not being open to reality.
To believe in what is real is needless.
To believe in Him shatter his reality.
God is a concept conceived in one’s mind.
What is seen is no need to be believed in.
To find the God, be free from believing.
God men aren't god finders, remember.
11.12.2010.



Faith counts



I grow with faith in people I deal with,
In words they utter and things they offer.
If that system fails, the society will wreck.
Then prosperity will breed poverty.

11.12.2010

When is sex more interesting?













Stripping of the clothes against shyness,
Tearing of shyness against resistance
And raping modesty against pretense
Will make sex interesting to the pair,
Which a stranger gets from a woman
And which a man from a harlot is denied.
A paramour will be a step higher
In that he drives out woman’s guilt and qualm.

04.12.2010

Momentary slips

Add caption












A woman sedated by her husband,
Like alms looking for a begging bowl,
Seeks for her a receptacle in secret,
And accept it when it strikes by chance.
26.11.2010


Spring comes only once.














The spring strikes; the trees blossom.
Bees swam and the trees bloom.
The autumn strikes; the trees shed.
Bees are nowhere around the trees.
Spring comes to woman only once
That she must enjoy without a miss.

26.11.2010

Women are unworn out.



















I look at you without being seen.
My eyes lick your skin as flame does.
My eyes gut your flesh as fire does.
A lot of men like me might have done. 
Yet you are fresh to me for my treat.
That is the merit all women possess.

26.11.202-10

Woman is man’s catalyst


















Man! A woman who loves you
Will make you feel stronger
Though herself being frail.

A woman who requites your love
Will make you feel braver
Though herself being tender.

25.11.2010

The doubtless faith


















I harbour no doubt
About my wife’s fidelity.
You labour with faith
In the God’s efficacy.
Both of us find peace
In our day to day life.
The doubtless faith,
Though not proven, is bliss.

24.11.2010

The vale in age













I’m seventy and she, forty.
She finds me to be a safe bet
And her husband has little doubts.
She and I address our wants.

The hope of love



Tempting is your pleasure
And being tempted is mine.
Kissing is my pleasure
And being kissed is yours.
Pursuing you thrills me
And eluding me enthralls you.
You need not deny your pleasure
By denying me the hope of love.

24.11.2010 

The foolish thing





















To think that the woman I’m in love with
Loves only me and not any other
And that she hadn't fallen in love before
Is a foolish thing we like to cherish.

21.11.2010

Woman’s apathy



















If I am impotent,
Let my wife go childless.
If I lost taste for her
Let her go without sex.
This is men’s aptitude.
This is women’s servitude.

20.11.2010

Honour is the asset.




Humility will ease out poverty.
Honesty will work out paucity.
Honour is the resultant asset.
Humbled will be others to you

18.11.2010

Illicit bonds




In front of my wife, who is faithful,
And in front of kids, who long for me,
I have no scope for other women
And have no guts for illicit bonds.
17.11.2010


To go single




You have entered the world alone;
You will, without aid, exit alone.
One does for oneself to exist.
Only after that will one help you.

14.11.2010

One is helpless.



Skin, race, religion, tongue, region and clothes
One bears act as one’s prejudices.
Accordingly one is aggregated
Or segregated. One is helpless.

12.11.2010

Demands of the cycle


Your children are your copies
But, mind, you are your parents’.
You have molded your children
And your parents have molded you.
You take care of your parents
For your children to copy it.
What you do to your children
Aren't a sacrifice but debts
As demanded by the life cycle.
12.11.2010


Acquire what is worth.




You must flaunt what you have got.
You must use what you have learnt.
Otherwise they are of no use.
Mind they must be worth receiving.
10.11.2010


You are helpless




What you are made of and where you belong
Will form your identities for others
To aggregate or segregate you and
To recognize or discriminate as well.

06.11.2010

No cure for virus


Entrance by loyalty
Will breed dishonesty.
Entrance by bribery
Will breed inefficiency.
Loyalty and bribery
Creeping into judiciary
And all ministry,
Virus cripples democracy.
No prosperity can cure it.

05.11.2010

Lust starves







Proximity denied,
Intimacy scorned,
And chastity preserved
Women’s lust starves.

05.11.2010

He is my man



He is not my man
Who is intimidated
By my wit and intelligence
By my success and fame
And my attractiveness.

He is my man
Who lets me float in my orbit
With no intrusion and
Who basks in my glory
With no inhibition.
05.11.2010


Authenticity is not Art.




Authenticity is not Art.
Reality as such is not Art.
Art should highlight something
From the remaining in shape.
Art should pinpoint something
From the remaining in acts.

Narration of occurrence
And rendering of incidence
In authenticity
Without any artificial twists
Will render the Art
Lifeless and spiritless.

A cartoon is a perfect art.
It differs vast from the real
And yet reminds of the real.
Imaginary is an art.
Romanticism is an art.
Don’t mar the art with authenticity.

05.11.2010 

The one most cared




I know my date of birth
And those of my children.
I don’t remember
My parents’ or wife’s,
Not to say of sibling’s.
At what age did
My grand parents go to the grave?
I don’t know
Who bothers about the stock?

04.11.2010

To fake being sick



Pity generates love.
The sick one will get it.
The poor one will get it.
To prolong getting love
He might fake being sick or poor.
04.11.2010


Trim and mow the lust.




Lust is grass, rooted in blood.
Trim it and mow it to a lawn.
Grow it for a fodder or
Let it die on its own soon.
Don’t pluck it or uproot it.
Then you will become barren.

03.10.2010

Big men do big



Most men think big;
Least men do big.
Those doing big
Hardly feel big.

The obsession



A room is lit at night with
A bulb of a thousand watts,
A bulb of a hundred watts,
A zero watts and a candle.
Let them go off one by one
In that order and still
The room will be obsessed
With the moonlight leaking in.
Obsession anyhow would stay
Though intensity comes down.

03.11.2010

Relenting attitude



















A woman’s love of being loved
Gets the better of her conscience
And encourages the man in love
To love her more and more with nerve
While she herself takes utmost care
Of not falling in love with him.

Having done, on seeing his sufferings,
She is caught with a kind of remorse
That makes her mend the wrongs done to him.
She falls soft and smooth towards him,
Which, perhaps, leads her to land
In accepting him as her man.
30.10.2010


Inhibitions




To tell lies or make lewd comments
Or break promises I’m gutless,
Which is due to inhibitions
And not much to moral restraints.
30.10.2010


Woman’s love for men


















A woman loves her being loved by men,
Without letting herself love them in turn.
She would encourage men to follow her
Irrespective of her liking for them.
She would part company with men in love,
Without sustaining any wounds or scar.
Men would take woman’s love, though dead, as true
And pine for life long for them since parting.

Unity of India



Identity brings about unity.
Unity paves way for affinity.
Affinity cements integrity.
Integrity ensures survival.

Thus a family functions as a unit.
Thus must a nation do to stay and grow.
India is the prestige of Indians.
Indians are the vestige of India.
29.10.2010


The spineless wish



A dying man might harbour a strong wish.
Physically weak, he couldn't fulfill it.
His kin pacify him by assurance
Not intended to act upon though.

28.10.2010

The end in tragedy


.
A sinking ship is forsaken.
Even its owner will abandon.
A dying man is a sinking ship.
He has to see this tragedy.

28.10.2010

Adultery by mind



Without a grain of animosity,
Man and woman cannot remain together
Having no amatory intend.
Adultery in mind is not eschew-able.

28.10.2010

United, we stand



Sachin blasts; the crowd applauds.
A gold for shooting; we’re proud.
A.R.Rahman makes us bask.
India grows; so do Indians.

All these things are happening
Cutting across barriers
Of regions and religions,
With caste and creed buried.

Which has made it possible?
The Republic of India
And we as its citizens:
The identity connecting.

India must be there; guard it.
India must progress; serve it.
Be Indian and buy Indian.
Stand for and by Indians.

Divided by jealousy,
Exploited by betrayal,
India yielded to invasions.
The history must not repeat.

Identity as Indian must stand
Before any kind of identity.
Be there concern for fellow Indians.
Divided we fall; united we stand.

Janaganmana binds us
As our National Anthem.
Let us sing it with the same spirit
With which our grandparents sang.
28.10.2010


Brain or heart?



Losing your heart for someone?
No, losing your brain for someone.
Falling in love gives euphoric feelings,
Which stems from brain and not heart.

The concept of love is formed
By top-down and bottom-up process,
That connects the brain and the heart
Through sensory nerves and hence so.
27.10.2010


Who you love is good looking




All women aren't beautiful
And yet each ladylove is beautiful.
She is beautiful, whom you love.
She is beautiful for you love her.
