DESTINY CALLING


This my destiny!

This is my calling!


Oh my beloved!


Will you walk me through?


Holding hands !


Leading me!


Embracing me!


All the way across!


To the other side of life


Where there is no you and no I


No us and them


No here and there


Where there is only true love


Oh my beloved! 


To this land of silent eternity


Will you come with me?

THE STEERING COMMITTEE


I am your leader, the big black one says


Armored with knowledge and wisdom


I have mastered the ultimate skill, and mentored all you weaker ones


And I am still in command !


I am the one, solely capable of steering!


So this committee is nothing without me!


Listen to me you fools; and keep going straight!


Why must we fall into your treacherous trap again; says the red one!


You are too selfish and narrow minded, to lead us!


While your myopic vision cannot see beyond the shadow of the chin


My vision extends to even where your dreams cannot reach


Unlike you, I am a creature who practises what I preach


So senile friend, there are no takers for the follies you teach


The path ahead to me is crystal clear


A turn to the left here, and a right down the corner


The future my way is a lot more greener!


But, captain failure!  Look where your wretched egoism has lead


You kept going when we pleaded you to stop


And now the oasis of opportunity has gone away


You did not heed to the needs, and climbed up he wrong dunes


And here we are now stranded, and lost under the hot desert sun!


It’s high time now for you to step down, and let me save all of us!


So forth, the two ants of the steering committee argue!


Sitting on top of the hairy hump of an dromedary camel, as they discuss, plan and think they control


As the oblivious camel strolls across the vast desert on its way home!

LAZY LIZARD ON THE TEMPLE WALL


Oh lazy lizard on the temple wall! 


What makes you grip and not fall?


Is it faith that moved the mighty mountains, that holds you?


Does the gravity of desire, fool you?


You scaled the wondrous wall to worthy heights


But creep back to cracks and corners, when not in sight


With valor and stealth,  you stalk your flying prey


But to the lord of the flies must they pray?


With ritualistic precision you lash your faithful tail


Yet, with the mere shadow of fear, you drop it off your trail


You strut around with pride, and hum a chesty tune


 Unaware that, dusk follows the dawn of  good fortune


Don’t you  know oh lazy lizard !


That you own not the wall,  that you proudly crawl!


Sooner or later, it could be your turn to fall!


So, when water washes away your footprints from the temple wall!


Oh, lazy lizard! What will you grip to, when you slip and fall?

DANCING LARVAE


Dancing larvae in the palace pond


Look what you become!

 
Little monsters driven by unfortunate fate


Feeding remorselessly on royal blood


 The royal blood of the king!


Oh winged warriors of dirt and disease


Even if you change form, and choose to reform


Even if you become noble in trait


Can you ever become, the almighty king?


Ideas and passions, you may have many


But how limited is your destiny!


Oh ,dancing larvae in the palace pond


Just drink your blood and be merry!
