Tomorrow's Plains of Glory
Burning on the brink of annihilation
Of the blast
Of calamity
Of sweet savagery
~
As the angels of denial
Sing tolls of affection
To delude our hot blood
Surging forward to war
~
Pushed and prodded by our gods
Over mountainous years
The fight has only begun
In our pain-stricken eyes
~
Our fatal stares will live
Beyond the course of our stars
In the cold hearts of kin
Marching to their own plains
Of sure destruction

Resistance
Alone
Beside the lies
That cannot be undone
The hopes and dreams
Of a millennia
Already won
People scrounge for attention
Uninhibited invention
Freedom of choice
A pretentious voice
Mind, soul, and body
Enlightened modesty
Cringing behind plastic
Mirrors of vanity
Coffins of insanity
The blind leading the deaf
App selection bereft
Uploading thoughts
Into cyberspace
Like so many balloons
Escaping moons
Vast pockets of hot air
Lifeless voids
Of waste
Filling up all space
At a quickening pace
Without emotion
Only quiet moments
Of memory and devotion
They speak volumes
Candid questions
Humanity's last attempt
For connections
Beyond this mysterious orb
Of wonder and imagination
Lost in silent adulation
Single cell amoebas
Yearning to defect
Like new existence
Resistance unchecked

बहुत शुक्रिया @hindiwriters ❤️
#jungle #hindi #government #forest #rights #notification #law #resistance #people #pod #justice #satireकागज़ नया आया है
मौसम वही पुराना है, आज कागज़ करारा आया है,
हुकमी तहज़ीब वही पुरानी है, बस कागज़ नया आया है।
सफेद कुर्ता खाकी जैकेट और एक तरफ को चिपड़े बाल,
कागज़ी महकमों का कागज़ी फरमान लिए नौकर नया आया है।
"अरे! बाबू दफ्तरी, कुछ ही जंगल बाकी हमारे, थोड़ा ही पानी बकाया है",
"अरे! बिकाऊ है ये सब जो भी बकाया है, तभी तो कागज़ नया आया है।"
"सोचो ज़रा, जंगल चीर रास्ते होंगे, सफर तुम्हारे सस्ते होंगे,
नैया तुम्हारी छोटी भैया, काम बड़े करने का वक़्त अब आया है।"
"दरख्तों पर दर-ब-दर खुदे आ रहे किस्से, हर शाख का पंछी वाकिफ़ है,
जंगल टूट बनती बस कुर्सियां हैं, और वही से ये कागज़ भी आया है।
नैया छोटी सही हमारी, बड़े वायदे बस जालसाज़ी हैं,
जेबें तुम्हारी भर के भारी, हिसाब टिकाने को कागज़ ये आया है।"
"हाय! इतनी तल्खियां, इस आग-बगावत को ज़रा रखो संभाल,
ये चंद एकड़ नुमाइश बस, अभी पहचान आज़माइश का भी कागज़ आया है।"

When I Was Born
If I was born the day you came
The memories of my father
His and mine, and the child I left behind
Could surely not be the same
Memories of home and land
Each and every grain of sand
The grass and field
An olive branch and its yield
If I was there in 1948
I would not welcome you again
Nor watch you come to my state
Like the incoming tide of fate
That was you, then
Escaping hate with all your weight
Coming to me by sea
While I offer you shelter, food and tea
If I was born today
I would look at you and say
There will be a reckoning
For one day, you will have to pay
You cannot deny my existence forever
For the memories of my father
His and mine, and the child I left behind
Live on, like fire on a burner
If I was born after 1948
From my soul I would be torn
But on my back, resistance will be worn
And to it, all my children will be sworn
So don’t ask me to wait
Just because you call this fate
In the end history will judge you
For every orphan you create
You see I was born before 1948
Now I look back and say
This is where my forefathers lay
Trust me, my people know the way
For that child I left behind
The undying symbol of my resistance
Has grown on my grass and field
He lives off my olive branch, and it’s yield

RESISTANCE
I'm walking towards the hell
I'm walking towards the pain
But all you need is resistance
I'm thinking about how I was happy
Getting naughty with my hottie
Enjoying Saturdays with party
Then it comes to heartbreak
Happy faces change into sorrows
A fake smile is now borrowed
That's how life goes on
But all you need is resistance
When life is getting harder
When hopes get thrashed
Dreams are shattered
But all you need is resistance
And there are days when you feel to give up
Not living up to what you dream of
Close ones start to run away
all you need is resistance
One day light will conquer the darkness
Your weakness becomes power
Your sweat and blood turns pain into the gain
But today all you need is "RESISTANCE"

Revolution
Our faces belie the ache
for change, the churning
of heartache and hellfire.
We deny our desires,
yet know them as true.
Our hunger pangs ooze
from our bones as a muse.
Our tracheas torn,
an endless gust
of wind escaping.
Valiant voices
disperse the lies,
the ones they tell our young.
Woeful wanderers
walk down the street,
phantoms of themselves.
Our blood pays the price
for time under the sun.
It's shadows erect
plasmatic pulpits
which siphon our hope,
command none to run.
Communions of passion,
carefully stoked
over cold lonesome nights.
Agonized hours resisting
the daemon of fright.
A renaissance of rage,
smelter and forge
warrior blades
who refract light,
break illusions
who dwell in the shade.
We speak our stories
illuminated by campfire,
of humanity freed.
Oh, hallowed was the sight
when mercy became our creed.
And now we gaze
at the moon's eerie glow,
recall how blindness
and fruition of faith
is all we'll e'er know.

Trust
My love is broad, but my heart has a lock.
I imprint keys onto special papyrus moss.
Observing from above, I absorb your moves,
I allow time to show me your truth.
If your trust is real, and your love consistent,
I will grant you a key with some resistance.

Resistance
Resistance leads to persistence. Whatever you resist or push against simply persists and pushes back in equal measure. Instead, transform resistance into acceptance by practicing "Que Sera, Sera ... whatever will be, will be..."

Glow
Light glows only when current pass through resistance;
Life glows only when you defeat all the struggles ahead of you

Nothing happened
A scream comes from south.
A scream from east.
Next from north
And west.
Silence.

forgive-forget
How could I forgive and forget when the trees dance on flames?
Leaves hanging on the fragile wings of hope
That screeched for the nearest sea
Drying through the blazes of reverse card
Drinking the droplets of rain through an empty chain
Repeat the routine through strands of shades
So how could I possibly forgive and forget
When their heart aches and their souls scream with disgrace
Searching for a platform of equal human race6 0
A fantasy of resistance
He brought fire from the volcanoes of hell
Wherever he went , life turned to ashes
Until he arrived to an eternal garden
A view that cannot be captured by eyes
He had fire in his eyes, in his hands
His tongue was blue, red and yellow
His body was an entity of fire and smoke
He had the sword of an undying inferno
And this garden vast as the paradise
Where everything blooms to touch the sky
With million flowers of unknown flora
and fragrances that can change the soul
He came with wrath and strength
He burned everything that can stand
And all the fire and smoke took the toll
Everything blazed except one tiny rose
That black rose lay untouched in embers
It grew at the touch of chaotic incineration
The black rose bloomed to become a tree
A black tree that only grew conveniently
This rare anomaly infuriated him madly
He swung his sword on the bark of the tree
Yet he couldn't cut this exceptional tree
The sword shattered and it was end of him
And then came the rain from heaven's cloud
The tree burst into millions of flowers
The beauty returned which was once lost
The devil who died became a tiny black rose..

Solitude
Travelling through these oblivious nights,
deep lonesome hidden thoughts surface.
Sometimes to clarify, the vision,
and sometime to blurr the mind.
Moving past the foggy blur,
with the clarity of the vision.
One must only move forward,
the path of least resistance,
will guide to the bliss,
lurking in the shadows of the solitude.

Morukh Biakh!
The mother had just
Put the babe to her bosom
And lulled the scarlet groom
To sleep in the grave
Only a while ago.
Only a while ago,
Garments dyed red,
A pang was born in the breast.
All in the House were dazed.
The air was numb too,
When all at once,
A tremor shook the House from within:
From without
An ear splitting
Cry was heard:
"Morukh Biakh! "

Freedom
this world, this road is no other than a stage
for you and your helpless mind to have a decent place
now please the audience with your sick delusions
decieve them, twist them with a masked face
forget all that buried pain etched in your wretched brain
a cripple all you are, half human and less than existence
till you feed some freedom to your exiled resistance
let it flow, let it rain all over this wrecked brain
so it may find a piece of peace in this endless drain
build an army of broken thoughts
and lead them to the battle to fight humanity's war
over who will rule this cruel and crueler world
first break free from the chains
that infect you with pure madness
then wake up from the nightmare
that in fact curse you with cowardness
now it is time for you to take arms
make the sun rise, learn to realise
that all you have lived until now
was just a jester's gibberish lie

Breakaway bonds
Remenicing through our childhood promises
I came across many 'forevers'
But with age came wisdom and a mind to think
Each lane u chose, u drifted apart
Maybe it was ego from a broken heart
I could have said yes to please you
To hàve it your way
But i gambled a friendship, I didn't know, faded away
You talk high but i see you low
You wanted me to follow your religious show
You judge me, who are you?
You may be right, but I won't bow.
Maybe forever is term,
Whose meaning you don't know...
