"lectures" poems
the miniscule, crystallized phenomena floating down on their zephyr gondola to the little children's enchantment. the wintriness nipping at their stamina produced petite gloved hands pulling tightly at their jacket. to rollick the day away was their only commandment. fast forward a few years, and they'll be learning algebra, their minds drifting away during lectures on parabolas to the forgotten days of freedom; they lament the loss of their fragile frostwork taffeta.

Oh, they a strange brew. Almost like a union crew. One minute disagreeing. Then the next tight as can be. In house fighting that makes you question their love. Just to see them turn around and show it. Siblings, only they can explain it. Getting to the truth is hard as can be. Unless you have a young one. Who will tell on everyone? Siblings, only they understand that connection. Parents know their bond. That if attacked by others. They gather together to bare arms. And it's not with any guns. The world of a child is simply hard to explain. The way they wants to go outside and play in the rain. And avoid coats in the snow. And when questioned about , how things got broken? Then between them nobody really know. Siblings, we all been there before. Unless you're the only child. Then you just don't know. This love bond stays between some as they simply begins to grow older. Their motto , somethings parents don't need to know. Unless it's something vital. Then the protection goes out the door. Yes, there'll be fights. And lectures from parents. There's be wearing of clothes that belonged to others. Who hadn't had the chance to wear them before? And give you the option of taking them off freely. Before they assist you to the floor. Yes, siblings. They hard to explain. Counselors advice isn't asked or requested for. Not by parents that know about these things. Books wasn't going to be their teacher. Because books didn't raise them in anyway. That this new generational thing. Where judges and courts thinks social workers needs to be involved? The best instructions is in the book about the teaching of God. Where we see the same conflicts? Siblings, there's no one better to have than a sister or brother. Who had a mother or father to witness it all?

"As the temperature drops down, the molecules get closer till they form a solid shape." And that's how our chemistry teacher defined 'love' on a snowy day.

Paperworks and all the lessons Sharpened my mind to behold more and more of that useless knowledge We would probably never use. Tests are bad enough. Marks at the corner teach us nothing but jealousy. The adults compare and judge as much as they want to And screamed and shouted cried and muttered. Exams are anything but better. You got stuck in a room Imprisoned by the tension. Suffocated by the hot headed determination to strive for the stars. Inhumanly high. This isn't hollywood movies Nothing like the literature essays 'how do we create tension' the subjects hold your fate but you did once told yourself 'I have no life' So what are we doing here? Wasting our days on something so terribly useless. Insignificant lectures when we know Accountants hated maths. Doctors hated biology. but they are who they are because of good results. They will realize no teachers like marking stupid homework. They hate the red crosses And so do we. Exams doesn't teach us how to be a good person. how to cope with beasty bullies.. how to survive on our own. It doesn't show any real talents nor your low (high) IQ It's just a pain in the **** You have to deal with before you became wrinkled, grey fuzzy and old.

I love you because the Earth turns round the sun because the North wind blows north sometimes because the Pope is Catholic and most Rabbis Jewish because winters flow into spring and the air clears after a storm because only my love for you despite the charms of gravity keeps me from falling off the Earth into another dimension I love you because it is the natural order of things I love you like the habit I picked up in college of sleeping through lectures or saying I’m sorry when I get stopped for speeding because I drink a glass of water in the morning and chain-smoke cigarettes all through the day because I take my coffee Black and my milk with chocolate because you keep my feet warm through my life a mess I love you because I don’t want it any other way I am helpless in m love for you It makes me so happy to hear you call my name I am amazed you can resist locking me in an echo chamber where your voice reverberates through the four walls sending me into spasmatic ecstasy I love you because it’s been so good for so long that if I didn’t love you I’d have to be born again and that is not a theological statement I am pitiful in my love for you The Dells tell me Love is so simple the thought though of you sends indescribably delicious multitudinous thrills throughout and through-in my body I love you because no two snowflakes are alike and it is possible if you stand tippy-toe to walk between the raindrops I love you because I am afraid of the dark and can’t sleep in the light because I rub my eyes when I wake up in the morning and find you there because you with all your magic powers were determined that I should love you because there was nothing for you but that I would love you I love you because you made me want to love you more than I love my privacy my freedom my commitments and responsibilities I love you 'cause I changed my life to love you because you saw me one friday afternoon and decided that I would love you I love you I love you I love you

I love you because the Earth turns round the sun because the North wind blows north sometimes because the Pope is Catholic and most Rabbis Jewish because winters flow into spring and the air clears after a storm because only my love for you despite the charms of gravity keeps me from falling off the Earth into another dimension I love you because it is the natural order of things I love you like the habit I picked up in college of sleeping through lectures or saying I’m sorry when I get stopped for speeding because I drink a glass of water in the morning and chain-smoke cigarettes all through the day because I take my coffee Black and my milk with chocolate because you keep my feet warm through my life a mess I love you because I don’t want it any other way I am helpless in m love for you It makes me so happy to hear you call my name I am amazed you can resist locking me in an echo chamber where your voice reverberates through the four walls sending me into spasmatic ecstasy I love you because it’s been so good for so long that if I didn’t love you I’d have to be born again and that is not a theological statement I am pitiful in my love for you The Dells tell me Love is so simple the thought though of you sends indescribably delicious multitudinous thrills throughout and through-in my body I love you because no two snowflakes are alike and it is possible if you stand tippy-toe to walk between the raindrops I love you because I am afraid of the dark and can’t sleep in the light because I rub my eyes when I wake up in the morning and find you there because you with all your magic powers were determined that I should love you because there was nothing for you but that I would love you I love you because you made me want to love you more than I love my privacy my freedom my commitments and responsibilities I love you 'cause I changed my life to love you because you saw me one friday afternoon and decided that I would love you I love you I love you I love you

As Autumn approaches, my mind drifts to the decaying leaves, Halloween, the cool, crisp breeze... The communal understanding that eternal heaven comes only with death— that Summer must always go. And that beloved Autumn must always usher in bitter Winter who lays the foundations for an exalted Spring. Oh hell...I hope for a long Autumn, I want to make it stay— like a host who lectures his party guest for too long so he won't look at his watch. Oh how I need the frumpy sweaters and pumpkin heads on window sills! Oh how I need the billowing steam from milky beige cocoa, the misty light rain in the gray of the morning, the high canopy of fleshy red flakes! And echoes of children laughing as they eat candy on their way home from trick-or-treating—reminding me that life can be enjoyed with sacred rituals and good company. I need Autumn personified— a cool-headed, crackling-fireplace-girl. A quilt-maker, cloud-gazer, two-dogs-and-a-cat bookworm. Someone comforting like oatmeal. Someone surprising like the first day of school. I need Autumn. I need Autumn but it never seems to need me too.

Ah, Autumn...
Feelings are terrible teachers They’ll stress your mind and take away your time you will never draw a line on whether they’ll push or pull If you refuse to listen to their endless lectures then expect to have these constant complications with their code of conduct and their strict regulations Yes, you can and will skip class for as long as your white lies permit But you know you’ll end up coming back or end up punished by a higher hand Soulless, stress-filled, a vacant face stares you straight into your little eyes and from here, your life begins to lacerate

kindness eats least of all we defeat our enemies cheaply steep the leaves in hot water gently keep enemies close to you and weapons even closer our friends are like sunbeams I jump in the water your sun-burned back is peeling out loud you remind me not to bend down too quickly she hounds me with her questions lessons on arithmetic I’m so sick of it histrionics and sonic lectures his tricks are onto it moronic manic accidents red lions with long necks deflect authority and wager on credit the outcomes are certain all will fade away indefinitely understand this and measure your life by breaths and not complexity densities are hiding in visionary lightning finding new faculties every moment we are swift in our limitless capacity for adaptation a refulgent emulsion immersed in water and poetry under the highest authority or just higher scrutiny wrapped in a paranoid blanket of heightened security all is being watched right now as judges redefine your beauty if you are truly interested in finding happiness you must understand that all magic is abraxas and satisfaction unceasingly attacks this as we collapse upon the backs of ecstatic languages....

Those good old days of youth. Teachers were to be respected. Not to be attacked. One ounce of disrespect to them. You soon was facing your parents. Yes, those were the good old days. The church wasn't truly a choice. Well, maybe for daddy it was. But under mama rules. You owed respect to the one that created you. The good old days. Respect was cherished art. It was something those good parents taught. Even if the adults were wrong. And you best not try to talk back. Because you had to be re-taught respect. Parents weren't trying to be your friends. You were educated on where friendship ends. And the role of parents begins. And with them. You weren't going to always get your way. Well, maybe when you sick. Because parents become carings kids. You get cake and ice cream when ill. While if healthy. You had to eat your dinner. And hope they don't forget this offering deal. Oh, the good old days. You had a time limit to be in. The street lights bet not come on. And you're not in the yard. This when parents went hard. Lectures and sermons to last for days. Punishments, I won't begin to say. Remember, these the parents of the good old days.

The Good Old Days
Korean fashion experts have shared their know-how with Malaysia. At the "K-Fashion Conference for Malaysia" in Kuala Lumpur on Feb. 16, a group of Korean professionals gave lectures under the topics "K-Fashion Design Trend Transition & Forecast," "Digital & Online Marketing Strategies," "Power Brand and Concept Development Strategies" and "How to enter the global market." The Korea Fashion Association, the Malaysia External Trade Development Corporation (MATRADE) and the ASEAN-Korea Centre organized the event to strengthen the competitiveness of Malaysian fashion brands by improving the added value of the industry through brand development. About 50 Malaysian fashion industry companies and related government officials attended. "There is growing interest in K-fashion, along with the high popularity of Korean dramas and entertainment shows, making this workshop even more timely and meaningful," ASEAN-Korea Centre Secretary General Kim Young-sun said. "The Malaysian fashion industry has huge potential as it is currently ranked in the top five in the ASEAN fashion industry." On Feb. 15 and 17, Korean experts visited local fashion merchandisers for market research and consultations. According to the ASEAN-Korea Centre, the Malaysian fashion industry has had massive growth with the expansion of Islamic fashion markets. MATRADE aims to boost the industry as the nation's leading exporter. It has been organizing Malaysia Fashion Week (MFW) since 2014 to make the capital a fashion destination in Asia. The second MFW in 2015 featured designers from more than 15 countries, and over 300 booths showcased the quality products of Malaysian fashion brands to the domestic and foreign trade, accodring to the organization.

Long ago, on my unpatriotic ways, with anger patriots turned ablaze. They ill-treated me with words of abuse, even classes on patriotism was of no use. One day patriotic tonic I drank. It made all the difference, to be frank. Now professor of patriotism I've become. To hear my lectures many patriots come. And before my patriotism inspires enemies of North and West and before my nationalism they easily bear and digest and before Chinese people of the North have understood my patriotic lecture's worth and before their Olympians represent Nation of mine and before we get medals in abundance this time and before Pakistanis decide to turn traitors at once, inspired by my patriotic views and my eloquence and before Indians use golden words for me to describe and before my name in history they inscribe and before people start giving me much respect and before my big and large statues they ***** and before my replicas and dolls are put on sale and before I start competing with likes of Gandhi and Patel and before this poetry becomes too patriotic to comprehend with slogan 'Jai Hind ' this patriotic poetry must come to an end.

Revealed - My Patriotism
Waves roll in, pounding surf Speeding along below the grey skies. Spewing **** screaming ******* songs of sadistic “self-control” According to angry-woman, assessment of everything outweighs any enjoyment Waves roll in, pounding surf, Speeding along below the grey skies Red in the distance reflects the ranting repulsive requiem that redefines our ride Learning loses love and lacks life when you demand ludicrous lapses of logic like lectures, Busy-work, bad business that burns the brains of brilliant children. Breath in, breath out. Listen. Don't burn out. Let the waves wash over you Waves roll in, pounding surf. Speeding along below the grey skies. Only human. The sky is clearing, but in this car you become a demon. Only human, beneath grey skies. Waves roll in, pounding surf.

You shouldn't feel butterflies in your stomach when you see him. When you love  a person you should find them calming. The way I see you with your hair up and no make up and no bra but your shirts still on... I would call that comfort in each other. The intimate conversations we had made you feel more than any boys hands. The unsuspecting pictures and my boring little lectures and us bonding over laundry was a sure sign of connection and there was never any tension. And the truth is I hate to see you worrying about some dumb kid who doesn't care about you as much or more than I do but, I'm not saying be in love with me, I'm saying I hold your heart the way he holds your hand.

GIRL WITH ORANGE HAIR AND HER PET RAT
i am crying again, because of him, because he looks so perfect in every picture he takes and in every sunlight that shines over him. i am crying again, because i know he will never be mine, and i want him so badly. i am crying again, because i promised myself that i will not fall for him again. i guess, i broke my promise. i am crying again, because it takes every cell and fiber in my body, not to go to the ***** bathroom, cry it all out and make new scars, because i am going to the doctor's in the morning, and i cannot afford my mom‘s stupid lectures. i am crying again, because i love him too much, and because i know he will find the perfect girl someday, but she won't ever love him the way that i do. i am crying again, because i will never be yours, g. and i want to, so much. i am crying again, laying in bed, looking at your pictures in my phone, and i am crying again, because i will never feel your lips on mine, ever.

I have a dream! I have a dream, To the racial discriminators, said Martin Luther King, I have a dream! I have a dream! To the evil-creating economists, I warn and ring. Globe witness hunger, inequality poverty and unemployment The world turns out to be bitter, To all of you, I write this letter. To create a world relieved from these and turn better. I am a mad aspiring economist, a fool, Searching for the right tool, You turned the world with full of mess, People are left with nothing less. To the world, you gave theories, Pushed us into a vicious cycle of injuries, About your theories, you boasted, It has created a few ruling and bloated. Most of you worked as economic hitmen, Turned victim laymen to fighting gunmen. To the realities, your theory is distant, Served no solution to the dying peasants, To the few, we remain a psychological slave and servants, Tuned our lives to a depended migrant. With your development lecture, You have killed the entire nature, In the name of ventures, corporates turned vulture, Hunted and looted our generations’ future. We lived a self-reliant community, You killed us with imposed liability, Our lives are now placed in intensive casualty, The word that remains imagination still is equality. We lost our humanity and identity, In your eyes, we are just a market and commodity, Your play with scarcity, was a mere futility, We finally became a society, filled with atrocity. Your useless lectures of development, Put us under frightening & irrecoverable unemployment, For a few, you got us into a deep-rooted enslavement, So, now for you instead, we make a replacement. To my questions, you neglected and ran, In your eyes, I am foolish stupid common man, To you short-sighted range, I say I will bring in a change! Today, I may remain lower and mere viewer, A day will come, where you will stand to answer, Writing a new rule, I would seize your beloved positions, This will be my lifetime mission and ambition. I say with all my limited experience, I will put a test to all your conscience, Are you just a fat-big corporate’s hand? With people will you always stand? I am not an economist, I am neither an egotist, I proclaim! I proclaim! I am a revolutionary economist, I know you will fit me a label, I am sure I will be an economic rebel, A rebellious economist. I dream a world without huge inequalities, I dream a world free from imposed liabilities, I dream a world without poverty and disparities, I finally dream for becoming an economist with no ambiguities.

In my home city of Dhaka, there is an abundance of bananas. Their sickly sweet aroma hangs heavy in the air, mixing with the stench of human toil and chemical wastes to produce the true odor of despair. The lives of these bananas are relatively short. They start off in a poor farmer’s tree, dragged to market in a broken-down truck, and sold at a cut-throat price to the vendor. In a well-rehearsed play, vendor and consumer haggle over bruised bananas. The tired consumer brings the bananas home and hangs them in the kitchen where cockroaches stalk empty cupboards.                         The next day, we, the children, will carry the bananas in empty lunch boxes to school. Together, we will sit through vapid lectures, tailored to make the clock tick slower. Not once will the teacher pause to encourage us to achieve. During lunch, we will devour our bananas with unwashed hands. Despite our best efforts, we will be corralled into our parents’ lives and become the next generation of factory workers and office clerks.                 Sometimes though, a child manages to get a glimpse into the other world. I was fortunate enough to be one of these children. One afternoon, my father came into our tiny living room with a smile on his face and an object protruding from his shirt pocket. He told me that he had a special present for me. With a practiced flourish, he took out an orange from his worn shirt. My eyes widened with amazement.               To me, oranges were objects only celebrities and corrupt politicians could afford. They were luxury items, myths seen on television. Yet here I was, nothing extraordinary, holding a real orange in my palm. Slowly I peeled the orange, feeling my old impoverished self peel away simultaneously. As I tasted the first tangy slice, I heard the shackles of the banana chain fall. It was then that I truly felt that I had the power to become anything I wanted. That day, I was liberated from the vicious banana cycle.                From that day forward, I looked for positive events in my life, for signs of hope and change. One day, I saw my strict, condescending teacher discreetly hand an orange to a classmate whose family was unemployed. For the rest of the day, the child stood a little taller. For that day, he was no longer living in a destitute environment, but residing in the warmth of human nature.

If My Mind Were A Museum
We revere our ancestors Becoming their protectors Because they're remembered With a golden scepter Yet they're only infectors Through outdated lectures If you examine history It doesn't take too long To unravel the mystery Our ancestors were wrong They sing a siren's song Of tradition As redundant repetition They sing a tribal hymn Of societal sin That fools fall in Until we're walled in If you want to meet our ancestors Go to North Sentinel Island They'll turn you into a rejector Or **** you where you stand The last island of savages It's barely inhabited Due to its low population And the fact that its inhabitants are barely people There's further obfuscation When they can't differentiate between good and evil Two fishermen drifted toward the village Not to ****** and pillage They had haphazardly fallen asleep And temporarily lost control They couldn't hear their worried fleet Or the natives on patrol They were turned into the dearly departed Because these savages are basically ******** No justice was found for those men They were killed by a protected people Why are we protecting them then If mere contact will always be lethal? We love our ancestors so much we let them ****** us Yet these are the same people that have inserted us Into this cycle of violence And now they're dead The only relief is their silence Their ideas we must shed

Ancestors
My ears were ringing, the pimple on my upper lip stinging. The words they were saying, drowned in the harsh love they were playing. I know how lovely you are, how kind you can be. Oh! How I want to believe. The large weight on my shoulders made my eyes and nose run. Tick tock went the clock, reminding me of how wrong I was. Internally my heart stopped for a second, a second too slow. Her wisdom baffles me all the time, his warnings ******* me time and time again. While the rope around my neck gets tighter and tighter, the days go faster and faster. Their advice I would take, hoping and hoping its not too late.

lectures of the heart
*An empty locket is not hard to find take a look at the neck and you can find a chain take a glimpse of their eyes don't get lost in the void* I know Lisa didn't believe in a lost cause she had stout faith ingrained within her that she could charge strong against a throng of men who fated her to be wrapped tight in white gauze who left the soldiers that couldn't be found in the fog those riddled with led, disease and debris to fill the bellies of those starving dogs and now that my baby's in the hospital locked in a state of alive but not living I caress the locket she always wore and I laugh where the tears come out because it's a picture of my face I laugh because if my little girl woke up she would not stay in her place she does not believe in fate all she'd know is that her daddy hasn't been helping people recently would tell me I'm a disgrace And I too wear a locket, the heart is pink I've never wanted to ink it black, it's a gift I received from my brave baby girl who used her tooth fairy money when she was thirteen I recall her saying I could put Sarah's photo there but I said no, little Queen there are pictures all over the house I can see, right now all I need is you and me that was that last time I felt strong over and over, she opened my eyes I kept learning I was wrong I wasn't supposed to wait for cries she said holding someone up is not enough once they've broken on the inside I have heard many more lectures from my princess but I need her to wake up and make me remember because I have been forgetting all my good parts that came from her teachings of surrendering your body and your heart in hopes you'll give the multitudes a better start so, Lisa whenever you're ready open your eyes I'm all set to stop withering I'll stop sitting here as I've done for three years and you can return exactly as you were in all of your glittering

We have *** everyday. But that's for me. not you. There's a reason I close my eyes when I kiss you. You're the filler-friend. I do not love you. I don't need your advice, I don't need your lectures. I need you to do what you're here for, then leave. Simple as that. Good Riddance.
