Open your eyes
What you see is a dream
So unreal in its existence
Deserves appropriate importance

All our troubles
Giving reality to the unreal
A form to the illusion
Knowing only way out of this delusion

Like watching a movie
Screen projecting images
Narrating a tale
With all the human emotions in place

The dark side of the hall
Which Seats us all
Watching with sheer awe
One with the story

Loosing our identity
To the characters on the film
Take it into the subconscious
Becomes part of our living

All the while aware
The irony of a Cinema
A  figment of imagination
Takes over an entire Theaters consciousness

Fantasy is narrated
Reality is the audience
Told before hand
Still both together blend

Will o the wisp that movies project
Motion pictures as companions
Seeker who knows life
Aware of the amnesic  sight

Aware of the confibulations
Filling our reality with the reel
Could turn out be a Spectre
Also fake in nature


The rainbow lines
Make it clear
It is not real
Human indulgence blurring the effect

Like a hall of mirrors
We are reflected in to the other
As far as the eyes can see
Only images to perceive

The seen is fiction
The seer is non existent
The Cinema a Dream
Awake or Asleep the dream continues its theme

The movie plays
Actors become the characters they play
We remain we
Aware Its an illusion

Our reality doesn't change
But fictional reality inspires us
This emotion makes Superstars out of actors
The reason that the house gets sold out


We worship the hero
Knowing that Its acting
Nothing about it real
Acting the word says it all

The happy and sad events
We know is unique to this movie
Our problems remain the same
And do not change

Movie making is no secret
Universities and books teach you that talent
They've made it hoping you'd like it
Planned out move to circumvent reality

Identification with the star of the film
Is their objective from the beginning you took
It was an actor before he became a Superstar
Performance of unreal things
Makes him the superstar


The Mirage projected
We assimilate inside
Believe it for a period
Come out with an altered subconscious

Reality and fantasy
The brain acting selectively
Fantasy becomes reality
Reality not taken so seriously


Akin to having a drink
A high that happens
Everything seems better than what is
There's no hangover is the positive

Transported to places
Riding in a horse along in a western
Flying Wingman in a war picture
Falken for love with a beautiful woman in a Romance
Laughing hearts out in a comedy

Lights on Screen blank
Merged both realties
Wanting to see it again
Is exactly what the makers want it

Out of the cinemas
Feeling good about life
How long does the feeling last
Depends on how many drinks you've had

Seconds given to us
Opportunity for investment
Thought and deed together
Make the best of time

Like any other venture
Takes time to grow
Adds upon itself
Repaid slowly but surely

Unlike any other venture
Funding not required
Goodness the competence
Everything else taken care of

Reap in the future
What you sowed today
Invest in welfare and growth
Comes back cleansing the soul

No risk undertaken
Downside or stop loss none
Stagnant lifestyle the  downside
Can't recoup time the bigger loss

Trading or Investment
Not for you to decide
Price fluctuations in your own mind
Bulls and Bears don't have a say
Only market forces of good and bad at play

Postman always rings twice
True for good deeds as well
ROI gets credited in the most appropriate manner
Here God himself is the Banker

The phrase God Willing
A defence mechanism working
A result awaited eagerly
Burden shifted expediently



Roll of the dice
Results never precise
Twice or Thrice same devise
Required result odds provide

Outcome a combination
Of actions and emotions
Gestures derive the values
Logical equations put to use

Need not be that
That is where God sells
Unmeasurable actively engaging
Want God to do the counting




Can't be bribed
Cent be threatened
Pleading to no avail
Writes the verdict to be signed by the judge in  tow

Your tasks not his problem
He already has taken care
You just do the rest
And leave him alone

Future holds in store
Judicious extension of present  actions
Is it shock or waves
None can say

Is it awaiting
Mapped out the proceedings
Just have to enter its gates
To undergo the experience

Will it transform itself
Acording to the need of the hour
Basing its estimation on its own laws
And deliver judgements on call

No point fearing it
No point embracing it
Embrace the fear
That's more like it

A distance to travel
Between present and future
Once reached it ceases to exist
Again it awaits our arrival if we are on the list


Triggering a new event
Up until now unforseen
It starts its circle
Future includes these hurdles

Existing and not
Shortest duration apart
Eerie that we  know
Its existence and disappearance

It journeys backwards
Becomes the present then the past
Predicting it we use the wrong formula
Only prediction is that there is no formula

Best way to endure
Be in harmony with it
Until it exists ignore it
When it ceases ignore it

It never exists in the present
Therefore the problem does not arise
Like chasing your own shadow
Futile is readying yourself for the morrow

Dream compete with dreams
Where do they originate
Some we've seen some a mystery
Both not reality but kickstarts a query

What happens in the dream
We narrate like we see a film
Playing out as it did
Was the time already decided

A powerful illusion
Make you believe it is real
So real that wake up state is an illusion
So we presume from the dreams perception

What is its dimension
Sub conscious fears
Giving themselves an outlet
Hidden desires playing out their prospects

Is it to foretell
An event yet to occur
That would make it a miracle
Fortune tellers would become tenants of our imagery

Some we forget
What happens to that
Fading away half way
Is there a sequel

Time of sleep
Doesn't make a difference
Dreams searching for the resting mind
Collaborates with the unfulfilled mind

Hasn't really meant
Much to anything
Past or future
Cannot be the present because you are dreaming in the present

Their color schemes i wonder
I really can't remember
Black and white or color
Seem to miss it everytime it occurs

Unable to fathom
Being our thinking pattern
Not in a free flow
Many stories merging half way through

Can give you a scare
Elements you fear and aware
Unable to let go
Come back to haunt you

Sequential in nature
Hours of stories told together
Wakes you up with a fright
The sequential dreams might


Source of the dream
Saints write thesis
Answers we understand
Doesn't get rid of our  Dreamland

Dreams while awake
Not yet made their way
Daydream a term for lazy
Hope it remains so and protects us from becoming crazy

Brothers and sisters
Braving the hostility
War in your backyard
You didn't ask for
Biting the bullet
With all your courage
What can I say for your loss
Sorry won't take me far
I pray from deep within my heart
Enough if being used as pawns
I bow to your armed forces
Taking on all the might
That takes a lot more courage
Alone taking on the opponents barrage
I can't share your grief
But i understand it totally
