Affluence flowers as lotus

















Money and wealth, in essence
Coagulate in our brain,
Clot as hard dirt, filth, all in vain.

Until the firmness unites, melts into affluence,
From the same dirt, filth just the same,
They choose to resurrect with pride, without shame.

The united one, flowers as lotus,
Ceaselessly flows from our brains to our hearts.

Conflict


Conflict, a deadly weapon, ghastly
Routed deep, mellowed as an entertainment
Intelligence, pray you play your flute gently
And tune us a way out, from this predicament.

Of lizards














Lizard lies
In the branches
Hiding and writing stories
In human minds
Of changing times

Nature's wings














Crow mothers
Cuckoo sings
Human wanders
In nature's wings

Of war and peace

Scarecrow is to birds
As war is to peace

At cross purposes

Scarecrows
Bird-watch
Crops hatch
Starving grows

Of flowers
















Lotus appears in ponds
Rose comes with thorns

Same stories from same stalks
Mere flowers

They know little of words
But to exist and perish, for lovers

Here's to the Peoples of the World



















Weapons rain,
Intelligence cries.

Wars refrain,
Destruction lies.

The world floods
With obliging bloods.

Drop the guns, the world says
But arms everyone buys and sells.

Power with arms, a primitive style
Thoughts crucified, in history’s file.

233 countries? 6 continents! Such a small number
Yet unable to wake up, from their condemned slumber.

When People would be up with their peaceful power
In an hour they’d ruin, the need to kill and war.

Leaders will follow the Peoples of the World,
Intelligence will smile, glowing and kind
Weapons will rust until they're blurred 
Until they drain and wither from the minds.

Being wrong


Two counties fight.
Two faiths rage war.
Each has a reason sound and strong,
Both think they are in the right
And probably, they most certainly are
To think that war is not wrong.

Is then being right the poisonous germ,
That kills and destroys our rightful peace?
Of what use then is this delinquent sperm,
That grays our right to infinite bliss!

If being right pollutes and corrupts the air,
Being wrong then is correct and fair.
It’d null the weapons, denounce the war
To deliver history’s most insistent scar.

Ways

















For an untrained world,
wealth and sex
breed war.
For a trained world,
peace
