The Third World War / Abandon Earth
THE THIRD WORLD WAR
Though we were, wearily wary, we had already been duped and decoyed
History will say, that our vaunted technology was alien and long deployed
Ensconced in all our nightmares, they were peripheral, benign and vague
Turning from our saviours to our cullers, with fusion power and the plague
How it happened no one knows, they grew in strength like they did before
In our defence it wasn't us, as it was them who started the third world war
Robots, from the ancient world, appeared like metallic monsters from Hell
Decimating allies and...

Anonymous Bystander; The Black Dahlia's stalker
Outside this club I might've not posed as your bouncer..
Inside nor am I your bartender..
I only impersonate as an anonymous
bystander..
I shared some of my thoughts with many among which is Madame Lavender..
I feel like you need to know I am a person of certain standards..
The hell! All these souvenirs?..
Yes! Of course, Darling
The doctor wrote me a prescription for special medication called...

Lizzie
1
The first ghost story I heard
was told in the playground, when I
was eight or nine. It was called Lizzie,
and about a woman of that name
who kills her newborn and hides it in
a closet under the stairs.
(My house had such a closet,
so this became the scene.)
Several years passed,
apparently without
degradations of the flesh
that would make the child in the closet
reveal itself.
But one night as she dozed
Lizzie heard a voice at the foot of the stairs.
‘Lizzie... I’m on the...

A Plea Bargain while sitting in my Living Chair
This Plea Bargain Paper placed on top of the table waiting for my signatures..
Haa! I laugh.. Coz it me makes me..
Can't you see I'm bunging resting on my living chair?..
They said no matter how you feel..
Get up!
Dress up!
Show up! And never Give up..
Oh well, it's a daily routine for most. It's also mine at the same time..
How I live..
I get up if I am lucky to see...

Gods and bugs
I don't want to die but I don't want to live.
I am too tired to exist.
But there are so many goals I have already achieved.
I am in too deep.
I'm too deep in this life to make it all go away with a single sweep of a knife.
I've lived too long not to think I would be bored if I were gone.
I've seen so many things without which I do not think I could live.
I know so many things that I'm scared of what might be if my brain stopped working.
But the thing is that the things I don't know are the things I truly want to know.
All...
