Emissary
02/11/2019

Tormenting Mind's vicious demons
Won't allow soothing sounds, or
Outstretched arm to touch its soul
Meanwhile knowing the pain and feeling it
You can't help but reach out, hoping,
Hoping for a sliver of crack in the demons armor.

?
But, what does one do, when the demon is HIS emissary
Will HE relent, if I don't consent

When Day Fades into Night
05/28/2019


When day fades into night,
there's a certain transformation.
In creatures of all size,
To hunt and for relaxation

Cats of the savannah
With stealth in their stride
Wild dogs and hyenas
Following the pride

Eyeing the fields, are
Foxes and hounds
For a better view
Meerkats on the mound

The night urges get strong
In groups we conspire
For the satisfaction of this
Our primal, desires

Ignited by the genes,
Becoming victim of the senses
Transformation being complete,
Losing all the defenses

Female gender being cats
Males you can guess
Both being hunted, in the
Dangerous game of live chess

a perennial competition between the heart and the mind,
one tells you to stay, the other - walk away,
but when it comes to love,
mind has little role to play

Radicalism
05/25/2019(R)


To defy the establishment
And freedom to express
To shake the firmament
Is the reason I confess

No thought or idea
Is born of a committee
Against all odds
It's to voice ones individuality

There's no question that
At the root of all knowledge
There stood a lonely thought
Not born of school or college

The masses that flock
As the believers of the word
So freely they mock
Differing views when heard

They call one on the outside
An heretic and a radical
That is only true, if the
Intent is forced ecumenical  

No thought is too wild
No idea too abhorrent
Once it gains acceptance
It all becomes coherent

Masses may find no relief
Radicalizing ones individuality
Not realizing that their beliefs
Were born of same mentality

in death lies the seed of birth,

so as we are cradled in one form,

so shall we be cradled in another.





no reason for dismay,

no cause for anguish
