Objectively not connected
We infer, of doing
While left and going without
The pain stayed
A resilient person's notice
Posted as a sign
To ruff us up
By reading difficulty
On the off ramp
This venom collected
From stay men
I'm moving on
Bee leaves crushed in ***** boxes
How much will wills take
In heretic conformity
Nay sayings is execute
Over riding that ramp up
Two occasion along, long side of a road
That that is life sentenced
Make no use from it
Keep the keeper of lies flowing
Until observing us changes
Yes observing us is where the change becomes acceptable
No obstacle in the math
Cash to cash
It's not money
It's a youman

A little far, or a bit close
Off the radar, or up the nose
Take a step now.
Start the journey, set the pace
Climb the walls, crack the case
Just take a step now
Read the book, write the line
Pick the flower, even that dime
It's just one step, just one chime.

A husk of hope on a window sill
With the apricot light bleeding in….
That thing you called a fly had feelings…
Had wings that you could never grow now…
Their magnificent dreams are suspended in motion…
A plane that never has to land…
But you - you have to face their luminous breathing - this breathing you thought you could switch off with the notch of your bedside lamp…
You must face the apricot blood so bright and butterscotch it burns through you…
And as you squash this obstacle for the bin to remove it from your sight; it’s dreams won’t perish - they will scatter out into space carrying their truth to distant planets…
But you - you will stay here, stranded…
And though you may wish it - spiders won’t side with you over your so-called enemy…
They will catch you and ravage you - tear you to pieces, dig their fangs into your dreams and wrap you in freezing shawls of guilt -
Until you finally surrender - a clone-roach that never really knew the meaning for its painted circus orders, but; somewhat predictably, followed them regardless…

Have you ever had one of those moments?
You know, like;
when before you can begin to get a sentence in, you see the other person's eyes roll.
when words of wisdom sound arrogant and cynical.
when you know you're being far too critical.
when your obnoxiously focused on the most simple wrinkle.
when your little issues seem to flip to psychosis and drive you mental.
when your own thoughts threaten to send you to a hospital.
when tomorrow feels like just another obstacle.
Those moments when breathing feels impossible
When contemplating turns suicidal
And dreaming becomes unbearable
That special moment when it sets in that this doesn't feel like living,
This feels more like survival
No?
You've never had that feeling of being out of control,
Lost in a downward spiral?
Where you swear,
This mountain used to be a molehill...

Four years of insanity came and went,
Searching for a place to rest our heads,
Living through a nightmare that we couldn’t wake up from,
Finally achieving our biggest dream,
We’ve found a home.
You have to give credit,
where credit is due.
The little things mean the most,
In such a big world,
A mean world,
And now the world feels like ours,
Because we have a place to lay our hats.

No matter who you are or what you have been doing
at some stage an obstacle appears without choosing.
It may be a person, a thing or one of nature's forces
that can just set you back on your forward courses.
It could also be a sheer lack of available knowledge
called ignorance, about what to do next or to manage
that activity or certain thing you've been involved in
where any progress forward seems unlikely and thin.
There may be other factors as well such as motivation,
issues of health, self confidence and lack of inspiration
which could be affecting or stalling the overall progress
of the situation at hand causing some undesirable stress.
A breakdown in one's personal or business relationship
will likely be a major setback causing a backward flip
especially where the parties are involved in a litigation
and the legal processes stretch out beyond expectation.

इस सृष्टि में हर व्यक्ति को, आजादी अभिव्यक्ति की,
व्यक्ति का निजस्वार्थ फलित हो,नही चाह ये सृष्टि की।
जिस नदिया की नौका जाके,नदिया के हीं धार बहे ,
उस नौका को किधर फ़िक्र कि,कोई ना पतवार रहे?
लहरों से लड़ने भिड़ने में , उस नौका का सम्मान नहीं,
विजय मार्ग के टल जाने से, मंजिल का अवसान नहीं।
जिन्हें चाह है इस जीवन में,स्वर्णिम भोर उजाले की,
उन राहों पे स्वागत करते,घटा टोप अन्धियारे भी।
इन घटाटोप अंधियारों का,संज्ञान अति आवश्यक है,
गर तम से मन में घन व्याप्त हो,सारे श्रम निरर्थक है।
आड़ी तिरछी सी गलियों में, लुकछिप रहना त्राण नहीं,
भय के मन में फल जाने से ,भला लुप्त निज ज्ञान कहीं?
इस जीवन में आये हो तो,अरिदल के भी वाण चलेंगे,
जिह्वा से अग्नि की वर्षा , वाणि से अपमान फलेंगे।
आंखों में चिंगारी तो क्या, मन मे उनके विष गरल हो,
उनके जैसा ना बन जाना,भाव जगे वो देख सरल हो।
वक्त पड़े तो झुक जाने में, खोता क्या सम्मान कहीं?
निज-ह्रदय प्रेम से रहे आप्त,इससे बेहतर उत्थान नहीं।

*What would you do
if you knew there was a light source whose
very nature could illuminate the back
sides of molecules and atoms; as if
the source did not come from its point of origin
but instead-- permeated all-throughout
from all sides at once.. in all directions--
at the same time; simultaneously..
yet also perpetually
..and if so-- where could one hide from the
knowing-ability of light of this nature
that chooses to have "known-ability".
What if
by chance, in life here on earth
we are given the dignity to choose, through
autonomy.. the freedom to hide--
the power to place, even if through illusion;
obstacle,
and create shadow from a light, that knows no shadow.
What if, the nature of love that is also light
chooses through muse, as one of its loving ways,
to pierce through obstacle created
by autonomy's oftentimes, need to hide-
What if.
Wouldn't that then be an act of kindness..
and also a beautiful act of honor towards autonomy
to not force its way in through power
but instead.. coax, through heart-persuasion?
..And that much more a gift muse would be
if one were to know that at the end of life
would be the complete and full removal of obstacle
in order to know
and be fully known?
Without loving acts such as muse
what would be "knowable" within us
if obstacle were never penetrated,
here
in the land of the living?
What if.*

You make me wish I was as hollow as a feather
Believe I could ride wind directly to your palms even in a blizzard with enough will and small enough density
I would fold limbs over one another to form the shape of a paper airplane
A postage stamp on my face for good measure
And leap off porch railing to be carried away by spontaneous currents
Soulmates do whatever it takes to draw near one another
There is no obstacle larger than love

The wall was up high
No one dared to cross
But we both tried
I got stucked in the middle
Saw only darkness
You fiddled
A wail from me
a scuffle from you
I already knew
One thought to understand
One ought I'd understood
I slowly sank
I quickly grabbed
A rabbit above
Lilies, my favorite, at the top
Scratches
Bruises
A brokenheart
One hand held me up
Struggled for breathe
Forced me to go forward
Now I look at the sunrise
Alongside him onwards.

Your barrier is closing in
How far will you extend your measure
Your measure will be the limitation
Your ONLY obstacle

I know you're hurting,
and it seems everything is breaking
apart from every angle.
You feel your thoughts,
and emotions are weighing
your mind and heart.
You feel the days
are dragging you along with it.
You want to be alone,
you push away everyone around you.
I know your contemplating
between giving up,
you feel there is no light.
You feel it's tough,
overwhelming and draining.
You feel the darkness in you
is growing, consuming you cell by cell.
and you just don't fight anymore.
You just want it to stop.
But, I just want you to hang in
there a little longer.
I want you to hold on to the people
who love you even though you feel
there aren't any.
You are loved.
You matter.
Even when you feel
no one can save you,
even when you feel
no one can reach you.
But there is hope as long as there is life.
I want you to breathe.
Just have faith.
Because there is
something greater within you
than the pain or obstacle
you experience and encounter.

There is an uncomfortable stillness in my mind
When my eyes you bind
You've attached them to you
As if you tied a knot between us
I frantically try to unravel all the tangles
I get so mad when wherever I go there you are
When I turn a corner
When I enter a room
Anywhere my thoughts may bloom
You are always in the way
You prevent me from all the things I want to say
My limbs are numbed and I can't move
You are to blame for this humiliation
How dare you make me feel this way?
You no longer deserve this power over me
So I revoke your control and take back my will
Instead of removing myself by untangling the mess you've made
I'll snip the strings that trap me
Free at last from that fraying pain
I'll leave you to tangle up in those strings like chains of shame

Obstacles await you
They're all along your path
Accept them as challenges
Don't glare at them in wrath
What are obstacles, really
But adventures in disguise?
Every adventure comes
With the risk of demise
Great adventures await you
They block and bar your way
Will you greet them with a smile?
Or will they taunt you day by day?
Don't let an obstacle control you
Don't sit down and sigh
Just call it an adventure
And know that you'll get by

where there is more unshadowed
Rest can be measurable
Of pierced veils unhallowed.

The remover of all obstacles,
O' Vighnaharta
I fold my hands and bow my head,
In prayer
You've always been my key pilot
O' Vinayaka
I come to you with all my heart
O' Lord of Lords
My knowledge comes from thee
In abundance, you've shed your blessings
Upon me
I offer my soul, my lifes all deeds
To thy feet
Hail O' Datta
I welcome you in my life everyday
At this Ganesh Utsav
I request you to visit me today
With your favorite dessert and flavouries
I've decorated a plate,
Sweet ladoos, modak, paan and durva
With this red velvet hibiscus garland and flowers
I am standing here waiting at the gate
In the temple, inside my soul
Where blossoms the energy to carryout my role
Dear Father,
You never disappoint your devotees
In this aeon of cycle, on this earth and beyond
You'll always be my protector
Coz my soul shares a devotional infinite bond
With you,
Ganpati Bappa Morya...

Which make me more vigorous and resolute!

hatred is just that
a completely useless and shallow emotion that leads to empty anger and wasted energy
hatred is just that
its not a tool, its not even useful for DEALING with those of your enemies
but it does create enemies
hatred behaves much like friction does scientifically, that is, it is the killer of efficiency, it wastes your energy, it creates obstacles, and it stains your life with something so impure and unresponsive that you lose part of what it truly means to be HUMAN
hatred is just that
a lack of humanity, a variable that is not useful for survival at its most basic level, it kills love and creates the foundation of evil
hatred is just that
useless, something that wastes energy, creates obstacles, stains your life, takes away your humanity, kills love, endangers your survival, and lays down the foundation of evil- which in turn can make yourself into an obstacle for others who only love.
And love conquers all
so if you hate
what do you think is going to happen?

Distance means nothing when there is a way:
Highways, waterways, and airways tying us.
If there is road, I will take it.
If there is a fence, I will climb over it.
Whatever obstacle, I will brave it.
Nothing is stopping us, so why hold back?
Distance is nothing when we are connected:
Communication flowing between us.
Mountains of messages over a bad network.
Stacks of exchanged pictures via unstable Wi-Fi.
Piles of shared links in low connectivity.
Nothing is impossible, so why surrender?
Distance is nothing when we feel and value:
The joy in our hearts over the absence of our bodies.
My chest grows florets when you say hi.
My heartstrings intertwine when you video call.
My mind dances when we watch together.
Nothing is lacking, so why forsake?
After all, it is distance that unites us.
And that is a beautiful oxymoron.

holding on to each other like braids
tiring day for both you and I fades
my hair was a set of obstacle
but you oddly looked like a miracle
boy you're so special
let me be your favorite gal
like that old cute spouse
like Minnie to Mickey mouse
I'm pathetically in love with you
now tell me a lie that sounds so true
