Dante Rocío Nov 2020
Seized by the fear,
The justice transforms paradoxically
into perspectives.
Perspective of people
who only float
and do not question
their fragile concept of existence.
Lying to themselves,
they decided from their comfort zone
to speak of “justice” to the world; yet
as long as you don’t understand truly
the truth about your chains, you’ll keep on
defending the empire.
You will never truly understand the pain of others,
you will never be able to truly feel the justice
because you fear dying,
and also paradoxically,
although I am giving you the answer,
you also fear loving.
And without love there will never be true justice.

Apoderados por el miedo,
la justicia se transforma paradójicamente
en perspectivas.
Perspectiva de personas
que solo flotan y no cuestionan
su frágil concepto de existencia.
Engañándose
decidieron desde su comodidad
hablar sobre “justicia” para el mundo; pero
mientras que no comprendan verdaderamente
la verdad sobre sus cadenas, seguirán protegiendo al imperio.
Jamás entenderán el dolor de otros,
jamás podrán verdaderamente sentir la justicia
porque temen morir,
y paradójicamente también,
aún que les den la respuesta,
también temen amar,
y sin amor jamás habrá verdadera justicia.
An old remnants of a speech being prepared where this poem wove its way into my research and it stayed however never used or with place for it found due to restrictions from above.
Now it happens to break free from Poetalia and come back into English I share with you.
Enjoy the simplicity and a cry of broken stoic blood.

All roads lead to hell down here.
If you believe they’ll take you to heaven,
You’re more likely to take them.
the disease of despair
gambling
suicide
hate
sadism

symptoms, not causes
of the brown blood
drained from swines'
pockets

gather up your coat
and your hat
for the primetime
event
inspired by Émile Durkheim

for peace in solidarity

जमीर मेरा कहता जो करता रहा था तबतक ,
मिल रहा था मुझ को  क्या  बन के खुद्दार में।

बिकना जरूरी था  देख कर बदल गया,
बिक रहे थे कितने जब देखा अख़बार में।

हौले सीखता गया जो ना थी किताब में ,
दिल पे भारी हो चला दिमाग कारोबार में ।

सच की बातें ठीक है  पर रास्ते थोड़े अलग ,
तुम कह गए हम सह गए थोड़े से व्यापार में।

हाँ नहीं हूँ आजकल मैं जो कभी था कलतलक,
सच में सच पे टिकना ना था मेरे ईख्तियार में।

जमीर से डिग जाने का फ़न भी कुछ कम नहीं,
वक्त क्या है क़ीमत क्या मिल रही बाजार में।

तुम कहो कि जो भी है सच पे हीं कुर्बान हो ,
क्या जरुरी सच जो तेरा सच हीं हों संसार में।

वक्त  से जो लड़ पड़े पर क्या मिला है आपको,
हम तो चुप थे आ गए हैं देख अब सरकार में।
समाज  स्वयं से लड़ने वालों को नहीं बल्कि तटस्थ और चुप रहने वालों को  प्रोत्साहित करता है। या यूँ कहें कि जो अपनी जमीर से समझौता करके समाज में होने वाले अन्याय के प्रति तटस्थ और मूक रहते हैं , वो हीं ऊँचे पदों पे प्रतिष्ठित रहते हैं। यही हकीकत है समाज और तंत्र का।
lands of
Titans as
these Vikings
clash at
large with
their picks
and chosen
oars and
hoa ravished
atmosphere with
sea by
their front
and wind
at their
backs while
craters solemnize
the dunes

Sun
The hardest thing is migrating
from being the sun in one solar system
to another
it's a whole different universe
Amanda Hawk Jul 2020
Your eyes were always black as night

But when they lit up with a galaxy

I found myself lost

Floating, drifting along your sea of stars

Until I fell into your sun

Burning up in your gaze

I dissipated into the solar system of your smile

That was when I realized

Darkness was as beautiful as light

life goes on
if i die today
life goes on

i can run
experience fun
life goes on

explosion within
a bottle of gin
life goes on

the blood escapes
my mouth gapes
life goes on

capital booms
emptiness looms
life goes on
cycle goes on.
