Sometimes we have to wait
Sometimes we are stopped
It’s frustrating
But we don't know why
Sometimes there is a long wait
For something we need or want
Then all of a sudden
For no reason
The wait disappears
And we understand
Why we were stopped
It makes perfect sense
It’s for us
Our protection
Believe
Light up the world
With your special light
Understand
The pause

we wake up and absorb it,
tightly write dry plans,
best laid to go awry.
i exhaust all my options now,
turn off the curling iron,
blow out the last candle,
tie up loose ends, mark my calendar.
transit apps quantify me home,
but i still overthink breathing,
always late, or too early,
there’s no timer for this life,
no remorse for the lists we’ve made,
or the poorly scheduled TTC train.
control is a bottomless pit, and
i drink every last drop, knowing
you could wake up tomorrow
and feel differently, and i guess
so could i - so let’s try,
with whatever control we have left.

some people have with dominance
possession  power and control
looks like a rather desperate reaction
to the widely known
     but mostly unacknowledged fact
that we are unable to control our lives
and live them as we have imagined

Accompanying  each other
complimenting one another
walking  uphill and down hither
Taking twists and turns thither
at every nook and corners  together
a journey  without a  bother
for years down altogether..
Still on ways smoother
Than any feel of smother
With no bubbles  of  frother
But as real like a  soother..
With all imperfections like any other
For our friendship is like no other
Cheers to you , my friend forever...!!

War is a crime.
Use only devices that temporarily incapacitate, but never
permanently harm.
All weapons from handguns to hydrogen bombs will be destroyed.
No political borders.
Celebrate diversity.
Share all.
Each Citizen of Earth has the responsibility to treat all well.
Each Citizen of Earth has the right to be treated well by all.
Citizens of Earth will govern Earth.
There will be no president of Earth.
No substance that poisons Earth will be allowed.
Peace on Earth forever.
No laws, only Love.
