Fallen From Grace
Right in the crosshairs
Of a poet's eye
The visual ensnares a fall
From grace
The sillheoutte of Icarus burned into the
Summer's shifting solar winds and the blinding sky
Eclipsed by the explosive imagery
Depicting the shadow of Icarus
a fall
From the grace of the ground
Into the unforgiving skies
The silence that follows revelations in heat
Famines and outbreaks of disease
Ingestions, infections, and fleas
Manifest themselves in violence and aromas chasing like a river of blood from a wound as it bleeds into itself and itself into sleep
Defiant of the obtainable
Only reaching from the penetrance of the ground
Digging through trenches of ancient texts
Ripping sheets like a pearl or a glass
Until now breaks into a split
And time expands itself like a taste from a nightmare that can move
Like a colossal war machine on the horizon
Each step breaks the earth
Every metaphysical slip is present in any and every dimension of the indefensible experience
We cannot separate ourselves from it
We can not decorate the ground in blood
And step away hoping life could somehow grow from it
The dreams as well as what you fear
Cannot be trusted
Like a rage that could expel you from the skies
After the first piece of humanity is recovered
After this page has been dusted
Only then, can we understand why
Everything we know, feel, and understand
Must somehow be as important now as it is
And as it will be when it all inevitably
And explicitly dies
Somewhere in the meridian the truth lies
The melody of a song's wings
Carrying a new lullaby from a desert's spring
And from it, glimmering a new life

The Night Of Silence
The feeling of expression and it's limitation
Curiously testing the boundaries to feel understand that you can touch the breeze
With a whisper, echoing through trees .

I AM
I'm the people I've met
The places I've been to
A combination of all the
highs and lows of my life.
But now life's at a stand still
No going outdoors , mask on
Mask off ,vaccines , no vaccine
Pro choice ,my choice , no choice.
Lost voice
Now it's a blur.

Walked in hope,
in these times of deaths and sufferings world has changed into a basic human activity.
Knowing that we have moved alot,
Only by asking a basic Question
"Are you ok?"
And we advised everyone with " stay safe, stay home."
I don't know what all are feeling.. but what I know is... It is a brief moment of sadness that has knocked our doors so badly.
We do care alot now but just like fellows!
And it hurts to think that the peace, encrypted love, happiness and everything around has turned into a "Dreadful Virus".

Read MoreDear all,
In our workplace, appraisal times are hectic. In life, appraisal comes unexpectedly and we need to gear ourselves for it.
Let us learn to relax and let go and stop having undue expectations and unreasonable fears. This can be a takeaway from this pandemic for those who are lucky to have survived it. It is just not worth stewing over imaginary fears and regrets and getting stuck in the "should have beens" or "should be so".
It's my appeal to my readers to smile more and enjoy every moment as it comes.

@writersnetwork thanks a million for the like and the repost. It is such an honour!
@miraquill @writersbay @writersnetwork #writersnetwork #mirakquill #pod #wod #life #advice #pandemic #ceesrepostsTIME FOR APPRAISAL
Throw out what you don't need,
Guilt, regret and greed,
Empty cupboards and boxes,
throw out false appearances.
Since you have done your best,
now it's time to relax and rest,
Let go your ideal notion of life
and to enjoy without a strife.
Let's gear up for life's appraisal,
abrupt, merciless and brutal!
clock of life goes suddenly still,
what we can do then is nil!
Have no fears, make no plan,
Laugh and love as you can,
enjoying life to the fullest,
shine your brightest!

The Pandemic Poem
Hey buddy, buddy boy deadly and new,
It's the tiny villian outta the blue.
Backed by spikes and a biggie biggie crew,
It's on the way with a nitty witty clue.
Shapeshifter, and the talk of the world,
A real gangster with a vehement hurl.
You better get jabbed and listen to your pearl.
Or fight it until your blankets unfurl.
Eat healthy and think better,
Stop it's spread, oh trendsetter.
Work your way for a good letter,
Keep it clean, just don't litter.
Show it all your unity,
You'll be gifted with impunity,
Mix your love with charity, and
That's what we call humanity.

Read MoreHave you seen those cobwebs,
Hanging from the branches of a tree
To the other?
Where does it start? Where does it end?
It does have a pattern,
Beautifully woven like a lace.
But I cannot tell you my friend,
That this is where the end lies.
Each day is an affliction,
With not an end in sight.
The pandemic came to our land,
Like an invisible ghost.
It mocked the mass with its game,
Never once letting us get hold of it.
"I play on your lungs... Oh!
Now in your eyes... well!
In your heart is where I now sit!"
Hey you! A virus as small as a cell,
Are you for real?"
Where are those days gone,
When we never held our lives so dear, Being home felt like a luxury,
And travel to work was tiresome?
Ah! Come back ye days!
Wake me up to a new dawn.

Osteoarthritis and love
Here we are entangled.
Making love we're locked together.
Due to osteoarthritis
this could just last forever.

The cosmic satire
A cough here, a sneeze there
Sound the bell; the reaper nears
Concrete cracks, fading tracks
The scythe of time openly shears
Tick tock, Clung clang
The clock tower shifts gears
Gray skies, barren fields
And a bunch of silent piers
Hark now, else thy fate is sealed
Death and rot have no peers
Morrow is history; Not indiscernible mystery
Let not ignorance bare jeers
A needle here, a pill there
Quenched are immediate fears
Barely a fix to nature’s tricks
Until an uglier head it rears
Tick tock, Clung clang
The clock tower shifts gears
Gray skies, barren fields
And a bunch of silent piers
Mend thy paths; hark thy asks
Death and rot have no peers
Morrow is history; Not indiscernible mystery
Let not greed bare tears
A seed here, a tree there
Flocks of birds, herds of deers
Borders dissolved; resources shared
Acceptance; even for queers
Tick tock, Clung clang
The clock tower shifts gears
Blue skies, golden fields
And a bunch of bustling piers
Hark now; growth is nigh
Joy and laughter thy hears
Morrow is history; Not indiscernible mystery
When towards love mankind steers

#writersnetwork #mirakee #readthisj #pod @writersnetwork @writersbay @mirakee #death #pandemicA silent tear
Ours was a fleeting association,
Just a brief communication,
We didnt even stay that long,
To form our bond strong!
But it was a bolt from the blue
And I had just no clue
That your life was lost to pandemic
Totally defying all logic
Your voice was always full of cheer.
Your family misses you, dear.
shocking to know your sudden end
Goodbye my dear friend!

20 Important Things We Could Learn From COVID-19 Pandemic..
I am putting forth my quick analysis of what COVID-19 pandemic gave to the world and more or less, to all earthlings.. I hope it strikes a cord with you too..
1. It has made us consciously decide to be clean, neat and hygienic..
2. It has made us unrealizingly reach for the newspaper every day without fail..
3. It has made us understand the value of honestly devoted professionals in Healthcare sector..
4. It has made us feel more comfortable and cosy than ever inside our homes..
5. It has made us understand the crucial difference between essential products/services and low-stake streams of work, thus improved our prioritisation skills..
6. It has given us avenues to have more meals with the entire family than we ever managed to do, earlier..
7. It has made most of us comprehend the ultimate truth, we are mortal humans and tomorrow is not exactly guaranteed..
8. It has made us more aware of the importance of purchasing life insurance and medical/health insurance..
9. It has made a sizeable proportion of the affluent class accustomed to and adept at cleaning, washing and sanitizing by themselves on a regular basis..
10. It has made human relationships land on the honest, realistic ground of what works (and what does not)..
11. It has made us more connected to our family members, friends, followers and fellow-residents, even if out of health-concerns..
12. It has made children better communicators as they got the time, energy and willingness to interact more effectively with parents and siblings..
13. It has undoubtedly made us more techno-savvy and digitally-oriented..
14. It has instilled a new sense of confidence, pride in the government and system W.R.T. their capability and readiness to deal with untoward turn of events..
15. It has made eating-out a rare privilege, just exactly how it should be perceived and observed..
16. It has helped people upskill in professional life, whether the reason is lay-offs, pay-cuts or any other unfavourable situation..
17. It has taught us restraint (regardless of how much) in bed, and why we should not take love-making or the partner for granted..
18. It has led us to believe in enhancing our leadership skills, at any and every level, given the more precarious, vulnerable nature of the world of today..
19. It has given us the time for catching up on our hobbies, favourite pastimes and areas of interest..
20. It has made us reminisce of God more, and this has worked in our favour, because we have experienced and practiced faith, hope and providence (divine intervention)..

END OF AN ERA
We all are aware of the apocalypse on earth
That was predicted since many births
When the world will be doomed to an end
Nobody will remain as family or friend.
There will be volcanoes and earthquakes all around
Global warming is the cause to which we are bound
Glaciers will melt and there will be random floods
Terrorists will be thirsty for our blood.
Tsunamis will arise from the depth of the sea
There will be no water to drink for you and me
Buildings will no longer remain the same
Firefighters can no longer, douse the flames.
From the depressions in the ocean, storms will arise
Tornados and gales will destroy the high rise
Trees will be torn apart, they would fall to the ground
People have nowhere to go in the windy weather around.
All are the bare truths the prophesy of the saints
It's the Apocalypse, that great God did paint
Today we have the Pandemic, that destroys the world
Tomorrow rocks and landslides would be hurled.
No time to rush and say good bye
We all are facing this and we all shall die
Man is mortal, no longer he can rule as the King
No carols or prayers, the peace they shall bring.
End of the world is so very near and close
Maybe it's a beginning of a new era that eternity shows
Let's change our ways and make amends
Before the day arrives when the world ends.
@ Dr. Sujata Chatterjee

Go
I'm weary
And I am free
No posterity to worry about.
I have a choice.
Most do not.
Fate led me to this freedom
Never having children.
I see headlines, scripted
Injecting fear as they inject
Unknown concoctions
Into your babies.
I am hurting for you.
Your choice and theirs has been
Stolen.
Your body is no longer your own.
Logic no longer stands.
You say you got protected, yet you need protection from others who are not yet protected.
Does this make sense?
I am only an observer.
I'm in a unique position. I have been in a subconsciously self-imposed quarantine for years now. I do not leave my home. Ever. Agoraphobia is the contagion's neighbor.
And so, I spectate and speculate.
And I'm not that woman that blindly trusts, not for many years now.
I can understand both sides. I believe in autonomy. I believe you should choose for yourself. As adults. But now your children? Where do you draw the line? They are your most important beautiful creations. Your absolute responsibility to care and protect.
You must begin to follow reason. Admit that something is not right here anymore. It's been this way a long while now. White sun instead of yellow, air no longer clear, sky no longer blue. Mandela no longer dead nor alive.
Simulation of what we once were.
You think me irrational, crazy even. Perhaps you are right if I get measured by today's standards. But I am not from this place. I was of the before. Where now their are only simulated shadows puppeteering existence. But much like children getting all the answers from the A.I. yet lacking the life knowledge to process that answer...this current time seems like that. Built on old ways and fading memories of old times, but lacking depth, meaning or weight. This place is paper ready to burn.
So why am I so concerned about everyone else? Your children? Free will? Autonomy? Choice?
I suppose I'm old enough to remember that it's what we all fought so hard to maintain. And without those things...are we all not slaves?
Just free thinking here, while it's still allowed.
Tick tock.
I've got one choice.
I can stay or go.
But you need to stay, for your babies...so find your values and get ready to stand up for them.
My best wishes are with you all.
And this, this is my way of standing up. Thinking and writing and sharing. It's what I can do.
It's all I can do. It's the least I can do, for all of us.
I'm not here for likes or hearts or any other electronic phantom of perceived adoration. I'm here to leave a record of what once was. From one tiny spec, one pixel of time itself.

Breath in, breath out
I don't know what is all about
and I wonder
Both of Us create a galaxy
full of fantasies
An ocean of stars revolving,
rotating from our own axis
Life shifted to highway of heaven and hell
Only ashes and dust remain

The Divine Saviour
Since Time Immemorial, I have scouted this blue oasis.
Unaware, chasing a wild goose,
For what I seeked the most
Had long left behind a horrifying hell.
Yet; the last time I had taken a peek at the looking glass,
The mist had not yet engulfed.
The grass on which I walked was still sparkling green.
Feels just like yesterday, when smiles adorned the faces of children.
In the blink of a weary eye, we lost it all.
Well, the grass is now blue, crumpled and 3-ply
A brave army of gurneys and plastic
Await your conscription
Some with their faces revealed, others masked
Perhaps they smile, but who knows anymore?
At least, they say
The furnace has the company and the oxygen
The faces of those children, now forever tainted.
And in the midst of this pathetic hell,
Your Divine Saviour sticks by the scripture
Painted, dead, bearded, vain.
