at some point, in time
the moment
will arrive
the one
you've been waiting for
all your life
and
the childhood will be
the recurring dream
fading away
yet
the high spirits
of the youth
will be the distraction
if not destruction
and this too
will
in the end
be just a point
in time
in time
it will be
the point
where
it
will be
time
back
to
dot
.

hope you...
hope you had a laugh today
and i hope you had a smile
hope 'twas a beautiful day
to remember for a while!
hope the dimples moved today
no wrinkles on the forehead
hope that twinkle in your eyes
ensured not a tear was shed
and i hope you had a smile
hope 'twas a beautiful day

the time for trading barbs was yesterday
sweetheart
today is a blank page
the funeral of spats is past
i don't believe in cremation
for burial aids new growth much better
hence the rotten rancid memories
am happy to make them compost
for the fresh and lush new vibrant greens reds and whites
the first thing you do
when you catch a sting ray
is to cut out the barbs
leaving you with the delicious meal
the wings
and the barbs...
don't just chuck them out
bury...

the day of not giving a f**k has arrived
regardless
utterly disregarding
everything and anything
yes
that time has come
to say the obvious
and the overdue
the day you finally realize the reality and say
fuck everything
that is the time
and the place
everything else is useless background
time?
fuck time!
this is pure liberation
bet you too
feel it
this moment
albeit remotely
the absolute liberation
from everything
meditation
is a hoax ...

blow me away oh wind
blow me away oh wind
like dust of desert sands
over parched rivers and
the famine stricken lands
blow me away oh wind
with the darkest grey clouds
let thunder and its spark
make me a carbon shroud
blow me away oh wind
across these jagged cliffs
let razor sharp ledges
accentuate my drift
blow me away oh wind
blow me out to the sea
way o'er the horizon
leavin' it behind me
blow me away oh wind
to a place that's my home
for i can move no more
exhausted from the roams
...

explosions are for the ordinary
easy
for some
to crack and crumble
under strain
or
to explode
in anger
yet
some special humans
stand in front
of a running train
and make it crumble
with just their silence
it is another matter
altogether
the effect
on the passersby
be it awe
or
the concern
raw.

shock value - duration : nano second
dear woe is me shock-jock
every little
outrageous statement
provocation
of yours
will surely
deliver on
successful attention
but behind the outrage
outright hatred
and sacrilegious rants
lies
one can easily see
your plea
for help
for redemption
dear shock jock
worry not
there is enough
love
and care
left still
in humanity
you
will be remembered
fondly or not
by many
much much more
than you think!
so relax!

leave me
amongst the ruins
for they
are the new growth

reclaiming
the grounds and
everything that stood

whilst i sleep
in sweet oblivion
the surrounds

nothing

the longest yards
are the last few
God knows how hard
was this stretch
heavy weights
heavy waits
the last strait
not the home one though
yet it demanded
several drownings
but the drowning
didn't occur
at sea
instead
inside
the drops
that became streams
that had their origin
somewhere
behind the rib-cage
when the lids are heavy
weighed down
under
just a couple of drops
those drops
they hold
much more
than simply salt
and water
