Sudhansu Senapati May 2020

Virus threatens humanity,
Human knowledge under trial,
Most evolved one faces extinction,
Time to collaborate to fight,
Put an end to blame game,
In stead of where it started,
How to conquer it,
Save millions of lives,
Vaccines, Masks, Therapy,
All that need collaboration,
Time to collaborate beyond nation,
Continent, Politics, Race, Rich or Poor.

You plucked me when

Sudhansu Senapati May 2020

You plucked me when

I was at my best in color and fragrance,
Blooming in prime of my adolescence,
Had bees hovering over me,
The day for which I had dreamed since long,
You plucked me from my origin,
Withered in no time, lost my life,
For your lust and pleasure,
You plucked me from my root,
When I was at the prime of my creation.

I can't Breathe

Sudhansu Senapati Jun 2020

I can't Breathe

For centuries,
You kept me in chains,
An object bought and sold,
Smothered me at your pleasure,
I have been crying since long,
I can't Breathe.

Does your Religion teach this,
Where is your morale gone,
Justice and Liberty only in books,
Are you civilized as you claim.

Arrogance of power and color,
Path to your doomsday.

To consult thyself

Sudhansu Senapati May 2020

To consult thyself

My inner self in the cave of my heart,
Abode of supreme effulgent being,
Source of knowledge and consciousness,
I meditate on the cave of my heart,
I consult thyself,
In silence and thoughtless state,
By stillness of mind,
My witnessing self a passive witness,
I consult thyself, the Pure intelligence,
I adore thee, bow down to thee,
Guide me with truth consciousness.
