Originality is not seen in single words or even sentences. Originality is the sum total of a man's thinking or his writing.

Knowing how to paint and to use one's colors rightly has not any connection with originality. This originality consists in properly expressing your own impressions.

When I was coming up, we weren't trying to get a hit or get paid, we were just trying to do our thing. The only thing we were really trying to do was to be recognized for our originality.

Originality Lurks Within Minds

however complete thoughts
theories are within hearts minds
prepared to be still prepared

to wait meditate focus
thoughts into a complete whole
originality lurks within minds

of curiosity perception
should challenge individuals
to think reason upon values

cause and effect consequences
creating multiplicity within society
changes within our shared world

No Originality Or Freshness In It

So you changed some things around and called this new?
Yours?
To have others believe it too!
And you know this isn't true.
Don't you?

Have you ever gone in someone's home?
And made suggestions
As to how they can arrange their furniture
To give the interior of their home a different presence?
It is still their furniture!
They recognize it.
You recognize it.
It belongs to them.
No matter how it has been arranged.

Same thing with stolen concepts.
Or a poet 'borrowing' ideas.
No matter how it has been arranged,
The creating brain knows from where it came.

There is no such thing as 'borrowing' someone else's ideas.
To make them new.

Plagiarists make attempts at this.
And some are so ignorant...
They lift whole passages as if they can not be recognized.
That's how empty their minds and lives are!

AND then there are those who will boldly ASK...
If it is okay to put their name on 'your' efforts!
And then to others brag of their tasks.

But not for too long can they do this.
Repetition bores,
Even those who do not recognize what is presented...
Has no originality or freshness in it to begin with!

The British feel of blues has been hard, rather than emotional. Far too much emphasis on 12 bar, too little attention to words, far too little originality.

Do You Feel It Too?

Im like a toy balloon
And someone cruel has cut the string
Im drifting out of sight
My heads too light to find a thing
Oh baby, life is like a cartoon movie
Being with you makes it groovy
Everything you do is new to me
And do you feel it too?
Do you find another joy in every little thing you do?
Oh do you feel it too, do you find the only thing
That matters now is me and you?
I cant believe my ears
You know I hear such crazy sounds
Each time I talk to you
And walk with you Im off the ground
Oh baby, love is great, you just cant top it
Got the ball we mustnt drop it
Girl there aint a thing can stop it now
And do you feel it too?
Do you find another joy in every little thing you do?
Oh do you feel it too, do you find the only thing
That matters now is me and you?
Tell me baby
Oh baby, life is like a cartoon movie
Being with you makes it groovy
Everything you do is new to me
And do you feel it too?
Do you find another joy in every little thing you do?
Oh do you feel it too, do you find the only thing
That matters now is me and you?

What Is This 'Thing

What is this 'thing'...
People keep on their eyes to peep.
What is this 'thing'...
People keep on their minds without sleep.
What is this 'thing'...
That's kept discreet and people sneak.
And whisper about on tip toed feet.
As if a significance will lose substance,
If this 'thing' hit the streets and leaked!

Accepted but not 'cool'.

That sets both mood and attitude!

That makes the people very rude.

That makes a drooling fool brood?

Somebody Knows

Out of my head and delighted, somebody knows how I feel
If you ask me to play it, you wont have to say it twice
cause Im goin to the head of the line, Im takin my life away
Im so glad you made it, and now that youre ready
Ill begin to tell you what you want, but I know
(I feel, I feel) somebody knows, (I feel, I feel) somebody knows
(I feel, I feel) somebody knows, (I feel, I feel)
Somebody knows what you want and what youre tryin to do
cause the same thing can happen to you
A little smoke, a little drink, can make somebody start to think
That he knows
(I feel, I feel) somebody knows (I feel, I feel)
Somebody knows what you want, when you want it
(somebody knows) when youre doin it right
Somebody sees with their feelings, and feels what theyre being tonight
And were doin it together, I know
(I feel, I feel) somebody knows, (I feel, I feel) somebody knows
(I feel, I feel) somebody knows, (I feel, I feel) God I know
(I feel, I feel) somebody knows, (I feel) I feel somebody knows
(I feel, I feel) somebody knows, (I feel, I feel)
Got what you want on the run now, keep it on in sight
Make me crazy, and you wont need me to tell you that youre doin it right
cause I know
(I feel, I feel) somebody knows, (I feel) I feel somebody knows
(I feel, I feel) somebody knows (I feel, I feel)

One Thing

One thing that I got for you
Is the one thing that you never do
One thing makes you feel brand new
Is the one thing that youre coming to
Just the one thing gets you in the mood
You call my number in the middle of the night
To tell me nothing else can make you feel alright
But it rings, you hang it up, and call me back again
One thing that I got for you
Is the one thing that you never do
One thing that youve got to choose
Is the one thing you can never lose
Just the one thing that fits your attitude
You call my name in the middle of the night
When youre making love and it feels alright
But its him, not me, cant you see, a shot of reality
I know what youre doing, I know what youre doing
I know what you want, I know what you wanted to do
I know when the lights go out, I know when the lights go out
One thing that I got for you
Is the one thing you never do
Just the one thing that gets you in the mood
Just the one thing that fits your attitude
One thing is scorning pain
Just the one thing.

Feeling Hollow Is Not A Crime

feeling hollow is not a crime,
why worry? i like to feel hollow at times
i feel so light and guiltless, and i sit on a bench
and look at passersby, guessing what is also
inside their minds: that one is hollow too,
she is floating in air like a butterfly
and that one is hollower than thou
she has a halo.

now i feel hollow too, but i get so used to it
that it has gained weight like a feather from
the status of air, and i have become so sensitive
to what other hollow people like me feel,
to the nth time of their empty lives,
but, know what, only for a little time,
hollow minds become filled,
like hollow souls too filled with so
much divine grace.

Round The Year

Gudkov* has finally drove home
To wait for me and welcome
She expects natural changes
In its originality with all the ranges,

She knows about its impact for sure
Those changes are indicators of future
Seasons may change and bring festivals
Something new to enjoy with its arrivals

Has it really been the one season?
We could have found no reasons
To rejoice and feel bad in emotions
As it reflects no more relation

The static flow with same water
Nothing to think about and alter
Bring in about lovely changes
And beautifully plan to enjoy and imprint on page

Round the year there are occurrences
For nature and human with so many instance
Flowers to be seen in abundance with colors
To remind us of originality with pride and honor

Seasons may come and go
But I have nothing in mind to forgo
Remember all lovely moments to rejoice
Count it with joy as full of promise

I wish her not to fool around
But search for me to be found
Embrace each other in nature's presence
I compose poem in her honor hence

Ode To Emily Dickinson

hope is the
thing with feathers

to be with onself
can be as productive
as any bird in the sky
as one mind is equipped
with wings that can fly
as far as it wishes to be

give it books, it can
fly to places where the feet
cannot take and beyond

beyond the mountain
where all the knowledge
ever harvested by minds
is logged
invisible and waiting
for minds to fly into them
to take them to places
where they should be

flying in everybody's mind

hope is the thing with feathers

Insomnia Seeding Organic Lives

social orbs
circles bonds
interactions

night spun webs
spin vision dreams
heighten emotions

work career endeavour
meteor blazing flight
ionizing illuminating night

heartbeats thought waves
shape minds dissimilar
awe originality inspires

what achievements
rock solar systems
seeding organic lives?

Taking Full Credit For Its Existence

I don't care what it is one has done,
People currently doing it...
Will attest that their interest,
Has made what has been done,
More appealing.
Thereby taking full credit for its existence.

And,
Well...
I 'use' to feel threatened by this myself.
Until I realized...
Not too many people will be able,
To duplicate my originality or 'try' and succeed!

Suspicious Minds

We're caught in a trap
I can't walk out
Because I love you too much baby.
Why can't you see
What you're doing to me
When you don't believe a word I say ?
We can't go on together
With suspicious minds
And we can't build our dreams
On suspicious minds.
So, if an old friend I know
Drops by to say hello
Would I still see suspicion in your eyes ?
Here we go again
Asking where I've been
You can't see these tears are real
I'm crying.
We can't go on together
With suspicious minds
And we can't build our dreams
On suspicious minds.
Oh let our love survive
Or dry the tears from your eyes
Let's don't let a good thing die.
When honey, you know
I've never lied to you
Mmm yeah, yeah
