Welcome to the Shire
Went to my ancestor's home on a Spring season that year.. On a Holi day in the land of Chanchadari A peaceful morning in Hoshiarpur, the doors to Himalaya Happy Holli day!! The kids shout with cheer Holi Hai! Holi Hai! Lets play Holi!!! He woke up early morning that day.. With a bucket of colored water waiting for me I stepped outside my grandpa's door In a split second I was soaked in a coloured water… From head to toes… red, orange, yellow, purple… the colors of Holi… Ohh It's a Hoi Hai day alright… Lets play Holi … Lets play Holi.. Hails spring with ecstasy and joy! The trees smile with their sprout of tender leaves and blooming flowers, The land of beauty and greatness, India, witnessing color of happiness and peace. Nation come alive to enjoy the spirit A celebration of color- Holi! An experience of content, harmony and delight. Holi colors of red, green, yellow and countless. A day's canvas - a riot of colors. Lively crowd running, dancing, playing Rainbow of colors, Lets play Holi and splish and splash!! Lets play with the frenzy colors .. play on Holi Hai day…. I am dreaming of playing with colors with you It is the Holi celebration after all. I can't play inside my home, the carpets will get tainted, I cant' play it in the yard, the grass and outer walls will get painted. I thought I would go to the secret garden of ours, and play with you Holi hai day … It's a colourful day just you and me.. In love on Holi Hai day…. Lets play Holi..

God ensures everyone a shore floating on the sea of the soul! No stone is as solid lying in any temple. Light up the flame lay it on the passage to the truthful selfless human conscience. Unleash from the unseen the one true enduring origin! The more one understands the universe's more meaningful! Hails from the one yet to expose the utmost intelligent of all!

The day is bright and blue, While the night hails the universe's true view. The sun, hailed as the giver of all life and the first true fire, As the moon is considered all of death's lyres. While life is given power by the sun, The moon is the cloak for all of its assassins. As the sun is fiery and passionate, Our moon is quiet and loves maleficence. As the day gives only the bare truth, The night covers all that who are to sleuth Sun and moon, God and Satan, Earth and sky, Truth and jive, Life and death, Fire and water, Dusk and dawn Diverting Martyrs Oppositions of our humainty, Sun and moon, Balance our reality...

Duet Of Opposition
There's a prophet on the railway He's coming with a book Written by a woman And blessed by a crook The station's been preparing For his arrival, coming soon He doesn't know a single person In the town under the moon His robes are made of velvet And his chains out of gold His eyes look about a hundred Yet he's only twenty-two years old His hands are un-calloused With pages stapled to his chest In his mind he believes That he alone knows best His name came from Berkley But he hails from the south His mother gave him nothing So he found his own way out In the dead of the night by his candlelight He heard a voice calling him It told to me ride north And let the people rejoice him On their Sunday feast he sets down his feet In a town of simple heads He gets on a podium And he lifts them from their beds He promises them redemption He promises them the end And with just a touch of his hand He promises they'll be heaven sent It's been six long years And his statue's turning green Just like his money Which lights his swisher sweets He knows his just a man Made of flesh and rotten skin He knows this and yet He's the one who wins

Praise thy Lord Our GOD, Praise GOD In His Sanctuary.!
When fierce conflicting passions urge The breast, where love is wont to glow, What mind can stem the stormy surge Which rolls the tide of human woe? The hope of praise, the dread of shame, Can rouse the tortur’d breast no more; The wild desire, the guilty flame, Absorbs each wish it felt before. But if affection gently thrills The soul, by purer dreams possest, The pleasing balm of mortal ills In love can soothe the aching breast: If thus thou comest in disguise, Fair Venus! from thy native heaven, What heart, unfeeling, would despise The sweetest boon the Gods have given? But, never from thy golden bow, May I beneath the shaft expire! Whose creeping venom, sure and slow, Awakes an all-consuming fire: Ye racking doubts! ye jealous fears! With others wage internal war; Repentance! source of future tears, From me be ever distant far! May no distracting thoughts destroy The holy calm of sacred love! May all the hours be winged with joy, Which hover faithful hearts above! Fair Venus! on thy myrtle shrine May I with some fond lover sigh! Whose heart may mingle pure with mine, With me to live, with me to die! My native soil! belov’d before, Now dearer, as my peaceful home, Ne’er may I quit thy rocky shore, A hapless banish’d wretch to roam! This very day, this very hour, May I resign this fleeting breath! Nor quit my silent humble bower; A doom, to me, far worse than death. Have I not heard the exile’s sigh, And seen the exile’s silent tear, Through distant climes condemn’d to fly, A pensive, weary wanderer here? Ah! hapless dame! no sire bewails, No friend thy wretched fate deplores, No kindred voice with rapture hails Thy steps within a stranger’s doors. Perish the fiend! whose iron heart To fair affection’s truth unknown, Bids her he fondly lov’d depart, Unpitied, helpless, and alone; Who ne’er unlocks with silver key, The milder treasures of his soul; May such a friend be far from me, And Ocean’s storms between us roll!

Translation From The “Medea” Of Euripides
When fierce conflicting passions urge The breast, where love is wont to glow, What mind can stem the stormy surge Which rolls the tide of human woe? The hope of praise, the dread of shame, Can rouse the tortur’d breast no more; The wild desire, the guilty flame, Absorbs each wish it felt before. But if affection gently thrills The soul, by purer dreams possest, The pleasing balm of mortal ills In love can soothe the aching breast: If thus thou comest in disguise, Fair Venus! from thy native heaven, What heart, unfeeling, would despise The sweetest boon the Gods have given? But, never from thy golden bow, May I beneath the shaft expire! Whose creeping venom, sure and slow, Awakes an all-consuming fire: Ye racking doubts! ye jealous fears! With others wage internal war; Repentance! source of future tears, From me be ever distant far! May no distracting thoughts destroy The holy calm of sacred love! May all the hours be winged with joy, Which hover faithful hearts above! Fair Venus! on thy myrtle shrine May I with some fond lover sigh! Whose heart may mingle pure with mine, With me to live, with me to die! My native soil! belov’d before, Now dearer, as my peaceful home, Ne’er may I quit thy rocky shore, A hapless banish’d wretch to roam! This very day, this very hour, May I resign this fleeting breath!

[Fanfare, obviously] This poem should begin with the call of a bugle, as is fitting for an ode of Braveheart Macdougal. Children of Parklands, take heed and be wary, as I relate now, in verse, a tale cautionary. Benigna Murdie was a most virtuous lass, blesséd with promise and a penchant for sass. To peer pressure she was admirably immune, and ne'er did she bow to the temptation of goon. Nary a drop of ***** has e'er passed her lips, save for politeness and church-mandated sips. Yet even the mightiest fall-- what a pity! (harder than I did that night in the city). So I hope you all glean a moral from this, and your interpretation does not go too amiss. But all is self-evident, to quote Descartes, so allow me to recount this tale from the start. She hails from a country renown for their piety, for their pacifist ways and universal sobriety. The Scottish are known throughout the land for their temperance of character and lightness of hand. And our poor Bennigles was no rule-exception, she subscribed quite wholly to this perception. A more reserved and reclusive girl you've not seen, virtually a saint at only nineteen. Passed out on the couch, liquor was never the root, only strain from the studying and academic pursuit. A paradigm of virtue, a pillar of purity, no “that's-what-she-said's” to compromise maturity. But that all changed one day touched by fate, when Rachel realized that hedonism's great. She took to the streets to revel in her glee, and legit nothing bad happened cause this isn't tv. Alas, now I'm drunk and the screen is a-shaking, perhaps of wine I should halt my partaking. I cannot continue with this facetious ode, as we all well know that this is a total load. But I'll miss you, my Brit, and our shitshow nights, our Australian exploits and your culinary delights. Sorry I couldn't finish to detail your demise, but perhaps I'll conclude after an Australia-reprise.

There's this supercute girl here, From Jammu the Sikhni hails, I feel so lucky that I get to see her, At times I follow her scent trails. Made of sheer pure beauty she is, I go ooh la la when she comes, Both my feet just freeze altogether, Frozen & I find my senses lost. Harps play when she speaks, So beautiful is her voice, Her lips separate like cuckoo beaks, Alive I feel staring into her eyes.

She Proves It, That Girls Are Beautiful
When the Costa Concordia met with a reef, it was certain some lives would be lost. As she listed to starboard at eighty degrees, Her Captain was first to get off. Captain Schettino was schmoozing some blonde when his ship began veering to shore. He was unwilling to go down on his ship,- The blonde? yes, but hold the encore. It seems his chief waiter hails from the Isle, the Isle with the ship eating reef. They drew close to shore so he’d wave to his wife an excursion that beggars belief. The Coast guard responders where shocked and amazed; They just couldn’t believe what they saw: The Cruise liner Captain, paddling furiously, beating women and children to shore. Unlike Captain Smith, who stood at his post, hearing “ Nearer my God to thee.” The tune that Schettino will sing his bambinos is “Nearer to Shore take me!” He’ll spend time in jail, but the punishment pales when compared to the scope of his sin This sailor has fallen from grace with the sea in his dreams let their screams never end.

Oh Captain, my Captain!
*Let loneliness' tears explode and be transformed into thousand moaning stars tonight, As... My universe whips with meteors...                                                      Slashing the earth's flesh,  with scorching ***** of fire. My universe cries an august rain...                                               Leaving the earth in deep waters,                     breathless,  it won't survive. My universe hurls hails...                                                   Crashing the earth's face. My universe whispers comets...                                           Making the earth sigh with fiery passion. My universe frets in pain...                                                  Deafening sound echoes                                                                      in earth's hollow station. That... My universe in my arms is collapsing...                                                    And I, the earth, am dying with him.*

My Universe
The thought that you can perceive perfection is one of a fool. You cannot become perfect, nor can you see perfection manifested. Yet it is a fools errand to not try to be better than what you see as best. You can't expect to be seen as perfect to anyone but yourself. Simply because if you can accept yourself, then you will often be denied by others as well. If you can't accept yourself, then try to become more. If you can't achieve what you want, get help. Not enough people understand the means to achieve their aspirations, but others know how to achieve someone else's goal. If someone hails you as perfect, then you simply share the same views. If someone degrades you for irrelevant flaws, then they hold a different standard. Perfection is only a concept created by fools, and people who don't understand the cruelty in the actions of others. Whoever thinks of themselves as perfect hasn't met one greater than them. In this world, the closest thing that I can fathom to be synonymous with perfection, is knowing that you are imperfect, but being content with who you are.

Imperfection
He has coffee in his blood, He dances with brown camels. White wide paths of knives Are curved deep among the mountain passes Of ribs wrapped in soft desert of skin. A tongue athlet and a sound alchemist, A reluctant nomad with wheat hair, Who's driven by his crazy-grooving heart So rarely though so far. Sometimes a train, sometimes a net, Sometimes a piece of paper Will take him. But most often he is joining with genies In their bottles. And spirits take him To the caves, the deep blood-vessels. He's silent mostly and his back is bent Though he is tall. He walks all cloaked in weary clothes And idle anger both. As it dictates him his prideful eagle's nose. He bears also marks of roots, Of runes, of flame, of anchors, Dancers. His bones look at you in their clutches From beneath the skin Of his thin fingers. He builds the towers shaky, Weak. And so, they're almost living, Breathing. He've found a cat in a banana And lets it live inside his elbow. The grey in northern sky is his. He reached his fine hands And left it there. He touched the sun And then again. He put it in his lighter With his fingertips. So he occasionally has a light from the sun. He prays to metal and walks two roads at once. He tolls the tree from which he hails. He hangs from a branch. Or does he just stand Downwords and his back is lying on The branch on which he stands? He buried his gold and digs it out only For fire and jokes, for bitter and smoke. A cow of three eyes and a bee on his blazen Are joing in drawing.

O thou with dewy locks, who lookest down Through the clear windows of the morning, turn Thine angel eyes upon our western isle, Which in full choir hails thy approach, O Spring! The hills tell one another, and the listening Valleys hear; all our longing eyes are turn’d Up to thy bright pavilions: issue forth And let thy holy feet visit our clime! Come o’er the eastern hills, and let our winds Kiss thy perfumèd garments; let us taste Thy morn and evening breath; scatter thy pearls Upon our lovesick land that mourns for thee. O deck her forth with thy fair fingers; pour Thy soft kisses on her ***** and put Thy golden crown upon her languish’d head, Whose modest tresses are bound up for thee.

Too much alone Too much afraid Too much unknown Too much paid To let us go By the way For no show So they say Could I tell you a story Ole storyteller Like bees buzzing flowers With some honey on hive's mind It's a modern tale That has sat sail All sewn up At a rate of knots That black book Bought with blood money Dares to say it holds a name Spar - with these throat barnacles (Alternately feeding and fighting With their feet) bowsprit [bee block] know your ropes, carried away deep six It's a thieves cat o nine tales Captain of chewing the fat Or combing the cat I've never seen (one) better Dunnage topping a tonnage From that trusty barrage I'm everything on top and nothing handy An eye splice on a short rope Given and giving leeway Haven't got a clew for true whence such hails from ...

doppelgängers gangplank
When my height is matched only by my age,the sage told me, 'that I will have found an ecstasy so rare,that no one will ever, have ever been there. I count the rings as if I am a tree but ecstasy eludes me, as I knew it would. I could have counted grains of sand and after,started on the rice or carved upon a cuckoos egg,something very nice,just to let the cuckoo know,that we know why she builds no nest. I have festered long enough and boiled up in the glare of a staring midday sun,it's time and time has just begun to interest me, never mind the ecstasy, that will come as surely as the night begets the day,one day my day will arrive in all its splendour. This is the agenda that I look towards the sky and pray for, a gender difference in her magnificence and I would bow before this maiden,laden as I am with all these wantings in my head.

On the tree of evolution, I am just some insects ignorant secretion and as I wait for some predetermined 'who dares wins'completion I count again the rings.

Talking to scorpions
When my height is matched only by my age,the sage told me, 'that I will have found an ecstasy so rare,that no one will ever, have ever been there. I count the rings as if I am a tree but ecstasy eludes me, as I knew it would. I could have counted grains of sand and after,started on the rice or carved upon a cuckoos egg,something very nice,just to let the cuckoo know,that we know why she builds no nest. I have festered long enough and boiled up in the glare of a staring midday sun,it's time and time has just begun to interest me, never mind the ecstasy, that will come as surely as the night begets the day,one day my day will arrive in all its splendour. This is the agenda that I look towards the sky and pray for, a gender difference in her magnificence and I would bow before this maiden,laden as I am with all these wantings in my head.

The trees smile with their sprout of tender leaves and blooming flowers, Eternal nature with its transient expression, Hails spring with joy! Bewildering shades with so many tinges. The land of beauty and greatness Colour of happiness and peace makes people alive to enjoy the spirit. A celebration of colour And An experience of harmony and delight. Gulal of red, green, yellow and countless colour also explains the colourful meaning of life, A day filled with laughter and gaiety, A day to smear our dreams With a splash of vibrant colours The festival of colour brings a spring of unbounded fun and frolic!!

Colours of happiness
Let's take a stroll here in this time, a stroll through Glory Land; To paint a masterpiece of old, by brush in Master's Hand. The background hails of purest blue, in Heaven's by and by; No beauty matches close on earth, to yonder in the sky. A pathway marked by shining light, each soul anticipates; What grandest beauty He'll unveil, behind those pearly gates. They're opened now so step inside, to see all glory there; To feel no pain, no hurt at all, nor shed but one more tear. The blind will see the lame man walk, first step on purest gold; Each one of those who've lost a love will have them there to hold. Our Lord and King will shed His Light, with Him we're soon to stand; That oh so glorious day, we'll see our Beulah Land!

"Beautiful Land"
Adventure awaits for me aboard the Ship of Dreams. Glory and power love and warmth await upon shimmering beams. The boat man hails as I slip into bed. All the dreamy crew are in fearful anticipation they shiver with dread. For where I go no one really knows. For where I go deep seas and vast canyons await. Dark green forests, majestic mountain peaks. Exciting viking raids, holding hands with a lover as we watch the sun shimmer and fade. Oh how I cannot wait to board that Ship of Dreams. It'll take me to places that I have never seen. It will shoot me far up like a magic carpet, it will take me to a world where only I exist and only I can sail. All aboard on the Ship of Dreams, destination unknown. All board that magical ship.

The Ship of Dreams
I need to learn to Stand up Never back down Even at the sound Of a bomb hitting the ground Creating a Bang All around Flashing lights Chilling sights Long faces breaking Falling apart Electric sparks Creating dark Engulfing children Demolishing schools Screeching breaks Of car pools The green sky hails A terrible storm Out of the norm Radiation scars The lives it mars Covering stars Like a silhouette Of a giant jet It grumbles Mumbles Roars And soars Bellowing smoke Like brewing a **** The coughing stops Bodies flop To the ground No sound And just to think I could have linked This all to me If I just stood up For once in my days Then I could have earned An enormous price Within this haze The price of life For a million people And for myself Id feel like an equal

Mushroom Clouds
Here hails a huge, long and dragonish snake, With myriads of dangerous heads on its thorax, Roaming up and down in a nefarious duty All over the African streets and hamlets, Villages and terrains, the abodes of poor folks, Swallowing daughters and sons of this land, Swallowing a handful of them on each bite, They are in a forlorn despair like never before, Defenselessly succumbing to the dragon once in the grip, Young and old, prebubescent and all others are cancers’ fodder, Africa is truly diminishing to the abysmal jaws of cancer, Forget of initial vices of *** Ebola and leprosy, Forget of the contemporary terrorism and ethnic warlordism, Cancer is ruthlessly swallowing poor folks of Africa Into its inferno of early deaths, rendering many parentless, A knot for the living to put aside pride and seek genuine help, For the myriad heads of dragonish cancer violently **** the prey, I have seen sons and daughters of poor Africa in cancerous agony, Often with a blocked food pipe when in the grip of throat cancer, Non-stop vaginal bleeding at mercilessness of cervical cancer, In the torture of brute pulling weight in grip of scrotal cancer, On the top of maximum pain in the grip of breast cancer Humorously desperate before menacing eyes of death, When misfortunately in the grip of heart cancer, Deathly starvation condemns many poor folks to grave, Always when in the unlucky tentacle of intestinal cancer, In this desperate land of Africa where basic hospital Stands a luxury, affordable by the rich in the political class, As the poor without choice die and die and die, O who will take me out of Africa, this nonchalant Africa? Before the dragon of cancer condemns me down to its Inferno of pains and miserably violent death! I fear death due to punctured lungs without solace, I fear death due to stunted blood cells without succor I fear death due to poisoned blood without palliative When the cancerous heads of ; lung cancer, blood cancer, And Liver cancer will besiege this land of Africa to hold me a captive.

CANCER IS SWALLOWING AFRICA’S POOR FOLKS

This could be my last sunny sky, No light through the window dancing on by. This could be the last day I have to shine, feel that freedom can all be mine. This could be my last day outside, No more cages and bars. This this could be the last joy tear I cry. This last day happiness is mine. This could be the last sunny day, Cloud cover moon, Goodbye Mr.Sun,never see you soon. This could be my last sunny day, No more freedom,locked in chains. And when tomorrow comes, Forever may I still be happy. Foggy grumpy clouds blocking the sun's veiw. Everyone needs foggy clouds,stars with no lights. That's why in this new tomorrow, I'll charise every single night. This could be my last sunny day, Truly now I don't mind, I'll be placed we with the clouds, Happy to be alive. If it rains I shall dance, If it hails,I catch the hail, If there's starless skies I'll make them, Slumber in my mind. Today could be my last sunny day, but I truly do not mind. Might as well close the window early, say Mr.Sun Goodbye
