Humanity – the book

The current civilisation of Human species has come a long way in the last five thousand years. The technology is mesmerising, architecture astounding and knowledge is touching nebulae and far flung galaxies. Our values however are perhaps not showing same level of progress. There is continuous war and hunger. Inequality is increasing every moment, pursuit of wealth has made most of us blind from the misery of our brethren living just few moments away from us. Environment is a concern for the tree hugging minority only. Destruction of forests, extinctions of wildlife species and increasing temperatures globally is a commonality not even worthy of daily news anymore. This age of individuality and trying to live life through social media has made our planet more ignorant, less tolerant and a troll infested realm. I hope, wish and pray that some of these terrible trends will reverse in the not so distant future and humanity snaps out of this current craze of abominable behaviour. This short book of poems and images try to highlight my humble observations in an abstract setting.

I will try to spread this message of compassion and equality until the time is upon me. Here is the latest instalment in the form of a book at IBOOks store (free)

Humanity

memories vengeance

sitting on the floor
face to face
emotions shown
with actual smiles
play some games
stay for a while
extensively engage,
discuss, deliberate
tune old drums, chums
beats, feats calibrate
settle matters,
quarrels, kisses
laugh or cry on
hits and misses
memories return with
vengeance no compare
destiny, a broken soul
an empty room to stare20140617-104016 am-38416487.jpg

Geometry

emotions circle
worries encircle,
affections square
touches required,
loathing triangle
hate angle,
stress cylinder
thoughts plunder,
lust hexagon
passion lexicon,
ideas cube
missing lube,
life sans shape,
ready to snap

Silk

twist and turns
story churns
just beginning to reveal
Toes on a march
legs on heels
soul in a spell
with silky seals
beautiful, exquisite
layers you peel
Heart is pounding
emotions I feel
kneel and kneel
to honey, milk
to the wondrous
delightful
goddess of silk

Effort

I work hard
Don’t let me start
I work hard
than all of you

You suits,
Mad wealth pursuits
Don’t give a hoot
If I fell on a shard

That much effort
for pennies few
Soft hands
Skills anew

Picking all
Whatever you threw
Living on lard
I work hard

Dependable

Blue skies, pouring rain
Freezing cold, heat insane
Difficult day, starry night
Eternal calm, mayhem, fight
Simple tasks, rocket science
Walk in the park, death defiance
All circumstances, every clime
I work hard, deliver on time

Eternal

Dear one
full of fear one
why worry
future would come
we would be same
passion may tame
But love…yes, love
would keep us warm
hand and hand
weather any storm
that daily kiss
you emboss on my lips
would last me for years
my face reflects
joyful tears
your embrace holds
million fables,
stories you told
more than enough
for my old age
my beautiful
vivacious sage
come, lie beside me
under open skies
I feel free
even stars agree
on a moonless night
your hand on my heart
what a wonderful sight
I will never lose
my drive, my thirst
of you and that smile
just one last wish
I don’t do goodbyes
please let me die first20140603-064244 am-24164870.jpg
