Whenever I feel confident enough
To tackle all that is tough
It is you, who will get the credit
Because, your passion is almost impossible to beat
On the other hand, whenever am I down
I know I am not alone
Because, your fiery writing fills me with hope
And ensures I no longer mope
Well, I am a fan of quite a few poets
Yet, very few produce the kind of effect
That you somehow manage to do without even breaking a sweat
Your work sounds a red alert
To the entire Indian literary scene
Which has an unfortunate obsession
With being politically correct
You, on the other hand, are so direct
That you tackle every single issue head-on
Greatly do I admire, your grit and gumption
Though I share not, your profession
Always, do I derive motivation
From your never-say-die spirit
Thus, bit by bit
Do I summon the courage and strength
To do my very best
Fighting every single fear and insecurity
And climbing the huge wall of positivity
Which would ultimately lead me to success
Of course, I do fail sometimes
But thanks to you, afraid am I not
To push the limits
And never will I give up
Because, again, you fill me with so much hope
That even the impossible suddenly becomes possible
And the possible becomes probable
Thank you so much, Dear Comrade!
Jai Bhim!! Vaazgha Periyar!!
The effect the fiery novelist, poet, translator, academic and anti-caste activist Dr Meena Kandasamy often produces on me has to be seen to be believed!!!
If misfortune haunts your steps.
Let the burning desire in your heart
light your way.
Should your fuel turn into ashes,
Split the atoms
set the world ablaze.
Rush toward victory,
for this is the path you've chosen.
Good Morning,
🌞 Sunshine 🌞
the world says hello to you,
As the Morning birds sing,
and the grass is covered
with Morning dew,
You Shine so Brightly
through Clouds and
the skies of blue,
It's turning out to be a
marvelous day,
There's plenty for me to do,
As I am on my merry way,
I can't help but to notice,
How this day is giving such
a beautiful view,
I Thank God for the
🌞 Sunshine 🌞
It gives us such a Delight!!!
To Light our way through
the darkness, and to
Reveal a Beautiful Sight!!!

THINK HAPPY THOUGHTS 🤔,
don't let ANNOYANCE
BRING YOU DOWN⬇️.
Instead of a FROWN🙁,
you should try to
wear a SMILE 😃.
A HAPPY THOUGHT
is a POSITIVE VIBE,
Your feeling so JOYFUL,
that you just can't HIDE.
When you are FEELING SO GOOD,
and HAPPY INSIDE.
BITTERNESS is out,
and SWEETNESS in.
THINK HAPPY THOUGHTS,
that comes from within,
If you keep this up,
you will DEFINITELY WIN.
THINK HAPPY THOUGHTS,
you feel like you could FLY,
like PETER PAN, WENDY and
the LOST BOYS, so
high up in the SKY.
You won't be able to FLY, but
you will Feel LIGHTER,
THINK HAPPY THOUGHTS,
and you feel like going HIGHER,
Hold on to these FEELINGS and
your DAYS will be BRIGHTER!!!

Once he was 7 years old
His sensational story got told
When he was compelled to stop
Still climbed the mountain top

As he sat by the setting sun
Finding ways to be the one
Rising from the ashes
Figuring his way out through clashes

Realising the deep dirt he was in
How well did he solved the problems he had never seen
Keeping his head still with a grin
Transforming himself into the man he had never been

Believing himself to get out of any strife
Embracing the true spirits of life
Humbling himself into a gentleman
Nurturing members of his clan

Showcasing a journey of tranquility with grief
So well did he displayed the power of belief
This was the ‘Struggle of a lifetime’
But everything, everything, was worth the time.
A boy once dreamt, not of teaching's creed,
But paths adorned with ambition's fire.
From commerce halls, where dreams proceed,
To B.Ed’s realm, bound by fate’s quagmire.

In SOE's corridors, where silence sways,
Among 250 souls, yet so alone.
The boy endured, through mundane days,
With steadfast hope, his dreams his own.

Mistakes of youth cast him in this tide,
Yet serendipity graced his strife.
Two mentors wise walked close beside,
Illuming the shadows of this life.

Peers spoke of gossip, in trivial vein,
While his sharp edges dulled in their midst.
Their demeaning chatter, a source of disdain,
Yet his lotus heart in mud persist.

Through Somai Bagh’s halls, he shone so bright,
In online realms, his spark sustained.
A sweet supervisor, her smile’s soft light,
Ignored his mischief, her patience unfeigned.

With winter’s breath, by fog’s embrace,
Chai warmed the bonds of hearts once new.
Serendipity smiled, her radiant face,
In her friendship, his solace grew.

To Manu ma'am's P. lab, he carried his art,
His words, his soul, unveiled that day.
A poet’s courage, a beating heart,
Recited verses in bold array.

The end now nears, of this tale so vast,
A chapter closes, yet dreams ignite.
Through trials endured, the boy holds fast,
A hero poised to claim his light.

So here he stands, with resolve anew,
Charming, steadfast, and free of dread.
It’s Kanishk, dear reader, bidding adieu,
A lotus grown where others tread.

you pay the levies
you grant the deceits

you fall behind
you fall from grace
you freefall

you get what you deserve
you deserve what you get

you take your time
you partake
you mistake
you get the point
you get by

you yearn
you learn
you lone
you moan
you atone

you know the stakes
you do what it takes
it’s all you

The darkness will not catch me,
Repeatedly crying a fountain for help
Feeling his breath behind my fears
I won’t give up

Chasing me mid-day under the bright sun,
A reaper sharpens a scythe, coated with rusted blood-
Belonging to lapsed soldiers
The darkness will not catch me

Fallen angels carry broken weapons,
A sign of lost and mistakes
A grudge against their own being, therefore-
I won’t give up

Sunshine will carry me, a newborn in a cruel world
A flooded place, tired swimmers in the ocean
The darkness will not catch me
I won’t give up
