Sing a song of Taj Mahal
Sing a song of Tajmahal
a fine nazm or a ghazal
Of this landmark for lovers
Ah, a lover's edifice
Complete with medieval bowers
It's a Mecca for tourists!
Tis sensational, tis exceptional
tis truly a touristy place.
Watch the shimmer of its magnificent marbled dome
Moonlight or sunlight, it glimmers of imperial chrome
It's ironical then
that though Indian-Arabian I am
I haven't yet been to this touristy place
It is truly as they must say, a lover's shrine
a place...

Grammatica
It wasn’t really a felony
or so I thought
using a there there
instead of their
Even the Microsoft cops
missed the infraction
along with my distraction
now all are accessories after the fact
But they finally found it
the bloody comma
left at the scene
so ... I finally came clean
I did try to mitigate
my sordid crime
with a little rhyme
but sadly to no avail...

Burdened Wings
Why is it that
so many things
have blackened our wings
soot weighing us heavy
Stuck here it seems
on this muddied ground
without a lost and found
or any warm safe refuge
So we started this way
each on a different day
the oddest of paths crossing
at a fated junction
Not by chance
nor by mistake
both meant to take
this poetic journey ... together
Still who could ever know
why a black feathered crow
would meet this...

I Promise ...
.. whatever I do
never to stand between you
and the rising sun.
never to stand between you

This Chapped Ass Of Mine
I would not bet on my horse in this race if I were you -
will get you nowhere in particular, which is my goal
Destination within reach, filling the world around me
with desired scenery - though life currently is far from foal
Perhaps upon arrival, I'll be too weathered from journeying -
no longer care for liberating madness of youth's daydreams
Discouraged? No, as I have nowhere else in particular to go
minding not as long as you matter in my conscious streams
...

Humbly, Thanks
God bless all you.
Thanks for making me
feel valuable and respected
For supporting my writing
even with the torrents.
Thank you
for forgiving my
ghostly
participating
Connection is hard
...for me.
It takes generous minds
to see past that.
🙏💖❤️🌹👏🤗

Meeting You
I wish I could describe exactly how I feel about you
The word 'love' just doesn't seem enough
When I'm with you I feel like I can do anything
I've never laughed as much as I have with you
Just your presence is enough to make me smile
You make me feel like I actually matter
I worry about the future and I think too much about the past
But with you, I am fully living in the present
And when we are apart, you are all I can think about
Meeting you has been the best thing that's happened to me in a long time
I will forever be grateful
The word 'love' just doesn't seem enough
When I'm with you I feel like I can do anything
I've never laughed as much as I have with you
Just your presence is enough to make me smile
You make me feel like I actually matter
I worry about the future and I think too much about the past
But with you, I am fully living in the present
And when we are apart, you are all I can think about
Meeting you has been the best thing that's happened to me in a long time
I will forever be grateful

The Need To Be A Warrior
This was inspired by Missy, Angelique, Ragnar and Lagertha
Daily we rise and grind
Despite the rage inside our mind
Living in a world full of craziness
Despite our temptation to laziness
To ourself, we have lied
Inertia could be justified
I am the problem is my conclusion
But I am also the solution
Listen carefully to your head voice
Your mood is a personal choice
Meditate and catch the wind
In your choice, our hope is pinned
Failure to choose
Is planning to lose
Try to be proactive
Rather than...

Push Through It
Push through it.
I have to give you some insight into me before we dig into this one.
I wake up in physical pain every single day to the point where I easily could be on a pain management regiment, but I refuse to take those pills.
I deal with it.
Because I remember when I was a drug addict, waking up every day and being in grime do us emotional pain and turning to the pills and I refuse to be that person anymore.
I wake up every single day and reflect on life and the curve balls life has thrown at me ( remember we talked about curve balls a few weeks back ) and...

Sur render
Sir Knight,
it feels so good to erase the
heroically tragic
( or perhaps
tragically heroic )
Past
where the iron of Trust
oxidizes if one lingers too long
There is no coming back
from the ravaging cancer
dissed rust is
lest it firstly consume
your armor and sword
rendering you exposed
naked upon the battlefield
laying down your arms
in complete surrender
to the moment
it feels so good to erase the
heroically tragic
( or perhaps
tragically heroic )
Past
where the iron of Trust
oxidizes if one lingers too long
There is no coming back
from the ravaging cancer
dissed rust is

rendering you exposed
naked upon the battlefield
laying down your arms
in complete surrender
to the moment

Being in Alignment
Being in alignment:
Most of you know that I have been in the automotive repair business most of my life.
One of the most important and yet often neglected types of maintenance that you can perform on your vehicle is keeping the vehicle in alignment.
Most of us perform that service when we purchase tires or have a front end component replaced because it is necessary to protect the investment that you just made.
What most of us do not do is randomly check the alignment to see if something is out of adjustment.
That’s a direct correlation to how most of us go...
