Confidence

Men, who man the machines
Repose confidence in them
Which they should
To a limit
Which be ascertained by inner self
Confidence when bursts the seams
Leads to inevitable
Which
Becomes evitable with bursting seams
Paradoxically
No confidence reposed on man
Who can respond
If not for evitable
Can avoid the inevitable.

Curiosity

Tread on
Paths untread
Pleasures! un found you will find
No path
You will have to find
Recall
When in life you looked back
The pleasure and inspiration you could find

Only when,
The darkness in you and around abounds
Look back,
On the untread path you have tread
Pleasure you will find
Which in inspiration abounds.

Life As Tree

Both
Nurtured in womb
Take time
To bloom.

Mother
Mother nature
Groom

As shape assumes
Towards independence
A leap
Blurred
With grooming memories
Adolescence
Then
An ripening age
Flowers bloom
Those buds
Which life gave

Thunder Of Silence

Beckoned
With
Sounds
So loud.
Riveted,
Attention
Couldn't arouse.

Beckon
With silence
On pedestal
Alight
For the thunder in silence
Rivets
Flushes the mind.

Observe
The attention silence commands
A pregnant lady
In trance

Anarchy

Move
Into the next century
Values decried
System in lurch
Gordian knots
Were our bonds
Find no takers
In our land
That channelized stream
With embankments cracked
Faints in rabble
Will its prints
Be there
A guide in future
Ephermeral objects in sight
Seek pleasure
In any effort
If make
Not seconds
But hours hand accelerate

Power Of Vigour

Vigour
If
Triggered
With forces
Of rigour
Path
One traverses
Can't be figured
Friends and foes
Quiver
On seeing him
Achieve
Hither and thither

Hither and thither
Rally some
Others
In abundance
Dither
To break the shell

Politics 1999

Saw those lampoons
Lampoon
In near future
They will only lampoon
Society with values lost
It's picture they present
Some say
Protagonist's they are
They are
We never dreamt off
Those who can uphold
Kept at bay
Sacrificing their lives
Settling quarrels they create
Heroic deaths
Do not
Wreaths and condolances
From lampoons deserve.

Unmarked Impressions

Heavy downpour
On that full moon night
Huddled together.
When I stretched out
Beaming moon
Shortened shadows
Gentle breeze
Lightning strikes
Thunder bellows
And more it pours.

Washed with water
Branches sparkle
Pebbles in the stream
Gems indeed.

Shadows swing
Stable ones
Provide the ring
And the drops which fall

Circle

Springing in the spring,
Flickering the wings
Jocund mood
Regale
Even they
Whose eyes
Skip the jocund bay.
Life
Lively
Of flicker
What derived?
There atop, from where thy flows
Heavens have mated
Rush, with a gush
Deluge!
Sweeps the boundaries of bay,
That jocund bay
Where wings flickered.
Flicker,
For another spring

Sleeping Beauty

Gracefull face
Lips embraced
Tightly yes
Tightly no
Shining beads
Revealed
When
The embrace
Waylaid.
Lids over her eyes
The sparkle I could see
And the moat above
Checked
The youthfull thoughts
Wander

Doubt
If she knew
The humble breath
Which the nose drew
