Xenophobia and religious wars ain't over
Extremism is now changing into racial war,
Fair and lovely but not darkly and lovely
Can't believe the world is again witnessing;
A time of racial apartheid
Skin is skin either healthy or in bad condition,
What is skin tone?
Why even this type of distinction exists?
Class distinctions ain't enough!
Why debate is again started on skin colors?
Fair,ivory skin tones over dark and warm
Tell me having an excessive melanin is sin?
We live in a society where;
Dark ones are associated with brutality
Fair ones are linked with beauty
An irony is this people will fall for black color
But will not appreciate people with dark tone,
A question I want to ask from you all
Ain't you sense some injustice here,think!

Eyes are so simple
Yet so mysterious

A quick glance can tell you
What they're conveying
But the longer you look
The more depths
You discover

whatever be
the reason
time always signals
timely indication
to combine
concatenation
of individual’s
lives fragmentation

time never
gets influenced
by someone’s
desire and emotions
time is unbiased
to any situations
remains always in
uninterrupted locomotion

Tuning into the 90’s
Good old memories
And the sunlight

Messy kitchen
Overworked dishwasher
And the tales

Post the storm
The sunbird feeds
On the nectar sweet

Do’s and don’ts
Followed to the T
Time for a test ride

Circular the wheel
Life is a tease
Moves on and spins

avoid military service
due to a bone spur
for which there is no evidence

have managed to tell
an average of 16.5 lies per day
since elected into office

slander possible opponents
and everybody else who
has a different opinion

divide their country
at a time when unity
were most desirable

sets police on peaceful protesters
just so they can pose for a photo-op
before a church flaunting a bible

but only for self-aggrandizement
    
     no prayer
     no empathy
for those who suffer most
    the victims of racist violence
    the thousands of deaths from the pandemic
        caused by his delayed actions
    the 20 millions of unemployed

people there are who
are simply too incompetent
to lead a country

Nothing written have been heard
until it has been read
the spoken WORD
Is the Bible of your life

Crests and troughs
Life a sinusoidal wave
It’s the matter that matters
On a particle wave
Energy ever changing forms
Matter of time and place

Insecurities leave
When you
Do not have the fear of losing
And
have the faith,
Or
possess nothing
And
Let everything go.....
