In reality there is no cause or effect, there is only the indifference of the universe.

Effect Is Cause

Cause and effect theory is at work,
By which one event leads to another.
Cause gives effect and effect turns a cause.
Impermanence is inevitable.
Inter-dependence is indispensable.
Suffering is due to the mistaken
Perception in the permanence of reality.
You’re not the sole cause of the outcome.

Indifference

Indifference is a blatant unkindness,
Far worse than anger and hatred.
With indifference you can get away
From victims, their anguish and miseries.
With indifference you can be well safe
From interruptions to your work and joy.
Neighbours are of no consequence
Nor are their lives meaningful.
Anger is creative; it brings changes.
Hatred is creative; it brings effects.
Indifference is not no-intrusion.
Indifference is destructive and inhuman.

Living in the latter days.

The end came unexpectedly.
Time stopped, then went into reverse
Which took effect immediately.
As if the lifting of a curse.

At first it was not obvious
What the effects would come to be.
But scientists were curious.
Recoding changes they could see.

Grey hair and wrinkles disappeared
People grew younger day by day.
There seemed to be nothing to fear
From time running the other way.

The universe began to shrink.
Instead of growing constantly.
Which gave us time to stop and think.
What the end result would be.

Rewinding millions of years.
Was bound to be a slow process.
But it seems nobody dares
To make an educated guess.

How long before the universe
Becomes a singularity
Now time has gone into reverse.
No one can say with certainty.

How long before we reach zero.
The point at which it all began.
Perhaps its best we do not know
the final outcome of the plan.

The universe will cease to be
At least the universe we knew
Pausing momentarily
Before the cycle starts again.

A mere potentiality
Existing independently
Which may or may not come to be
A new form of reality.

Elie Wiesel

The opposite of love is not hate, it's indifference. The opposite of beauty is not ugliness, it's indifference. The opposite of faith is not heresy, it's indifference. And the opposite of life is not death, but indifference between life and death.

Indifference is the strongest force in the universe. It makes everything it touches meaningless. Love and hate don't stand a chance against it.

The universe we observe has precisely the properties we should expect if there is, at bottom, no design, no purpose, no evil, no good, nothing but blind, pitiless indifference.

One Song

I am the universe
The sun, the moon and sea
I am the energy
4 that is what I believe
I can be contradiction
Cuz that is all I see
But I am the universe
And the universe is me
I am the one song (Ah yes)
And that one song is free
All things come from this one song (Yes they do, uh)
The garden and the tree
If everything, everything is present
What is will always be
This here is the first and the last song
And all that come between
When language falls like a wounded soldier
And it's covered by the sea
All the sadness
All these unanswered questions
Keep me company
(Company, company, company come 2 me, come 2 me please!)
Here at the center of it all
(I know)
I know that U can only come from me
(I am the universe)
Yes it will, oh, yes it will
(The sun, the moon and sea)
Where else is it gonna come from but me?
(I am the universe)
Oh my, my my my my my my my universe
(The universe is me)
(I am the universe)
(The sun, the moon and sea)
(I am the universe)
(We are the universe) {x2}
(The universe is me)
One truth (One truth)
One song (One song)
One energy

The Astronaut's Song

Beauty is the freedom of the universe at bay,
Beauty is tranquility, which never compensates!

Freedom is, as freedom does, as freedom rings today,
The greatest sound, which space surrounds my senses I obey!

To soar beyond the distant here, I follow life’s template,
As twilight stars extend beyond this century’s domain!

O mother universe, mother universe, I cherish your array,
In which I adore your presence, more than reality’s dream!

Because You Are The Star Of The Universe, The Only One

we do not try that hard
enough
reality has muscles of its
own
when it sees us tired
and rotten
it begins to show its hands
to take us for
a ride
its feet pedaling with the wheels
of beautiful truths
in the gardens of this
universe
it is then when we become the
tourists
simply looking and enjoying
what reality
shows us

so relax, do not overwork yourself
with some chosen words

let the words do the trick
they are your slaves not your masters

let the chair stand on its own legs
move towards you
and then you sit as the windows open
themselves
as the sun finally arrives as the mountains
grow the trees and the greenest grass
so appeasing to your eyes

spectator, the star of the universe
the most important mortal
the chosen creature

Egocentric viewpoint for M lady Wardha Jawdhat

My universe: If I should die
would disappear. I’ll tell you why
Each day I wake up and renew
everything in my purview.

Though this may sound like fantasy
it is in fact reality.
We all create the world we know
and ring the changes as we go

through all the tests life throws at us.
We are not so autonomous
we can ignore the salient facts
that everybody interacts.

Your universe and mine combine
although they’re similar in design
they still retain their unity.
We tend to see things differently.

Although the world will still exist
This is the truth I must insist.
My universe will cease to be,
it has no purpose without me.

Ring Sworned

I am condemned, in the world you created - I am cold caught, not snatched taught - Inside the property of the lost, i jacket the spade off the joker - By the effect from the effect, i detect the peace in the innocent - The pure form of an aura, spiritually bound to the existing universe - Is your soul cast, or by your believes, formed - What will be your cost, by which you were scorned, Ring sworned - The day is seated for my judgement, i will stand alone - By choice, i will not plead - My voice, keep the noise, time to proceed - Spreading my worms by my seed

The indifference

The indifference makes everything meaningless.
It gives you no joy, nor sorrow.
You take no side, nor disturbed.
Involvement kills the indifference.

Out of Tears

Swollen eyes, weary face,
'Twas I was fractured, much too grief so fierce.
The heart that used to beat and pace,
Save it the solace, as through the heart, I'm out of tears.

Complete now through indifference,
Satisfaction with anguish,
All so detested, now holds significance
Nothing enriches, nonetheless make lavish...

Hear the melody of despondency so dulcet,
Let reality take hold, nothing else would matter anymore.
As if stabbed by a lancet,
Joy bleeds and drops on the universe, on it's very shore.

Inherence of anguish, I recognized.
The claws of the spurn ripped me, now worse than my own fears.
But finally in satisfaction I realized,
'Twas the illusion of triumph, that it I'm finally out of tears...

Our Own Discoveries

In lofty circles of great believers
Miracle Plays, Jesus dying, Paul
singing praise songs in jail; those
without gift of faith cannot exceed

Their limitations, though admiring
the strengthening effect of faith
on integrity - not experiencing
the effect themselves

Faith an ideal, we admire people
who accomplish big things, read
and dream about these - writing
poems afterwards, sharing

Lack of spiritual gifts, content in
discovering reality provides little
evidence of things we admire-
wonderful, we feel the same

We help each other uncover the
fallacies and accept ideals can't
be realised in our universe - a
few content with dreams only

Making peace with this, others still
furious discovering non-existence
feeling justly cheated because
great expectations of

false illusions had been promoted -
enticement just showed how great
life could have been, now seems
more sordid in comparison

Experience shatters, disappointment
in impossible ideals voiced in pain -
we are strengthened by objecting
to the deceptions

That have been perpetrated - enabling
us to face our own discoveries…

How much can a mind take?

how much can a mind take up?
the whole universe
what you see and dont
all the time that has passed
a million million years
and more to spare

how much can a mind fill up?
the whole universe and beyond
what you see - and dont see
what there are in reality, dreams
....
