If we do not want to be pained by anybody we must not pain anybody; and how can man consider himself humane if he wants to live at the cost of others.

Pain is a plenty harried thing
Pain is a plenty harried thing,
It too is in plentiful pain.
Pain too prays for reprieve from the Lord,
It too wishes for a merciful end;
Pain has pained itself with the painful realization,
That it is the root of the cause of the source of all pain;
That is why pain is a plenty harried thing,
For it too is in plentiful pain.
Pain is a plenty harried thing,
It too hopes that the morrow starts at leisure
And that maybe it could rise (one day) from within itself
And become its prodigal brother: Pleasure.
We blame pain, we hate pain but we all go seeking it,
Pain doesn’t stalk us, we stalk pain;
If it wasn’t for us, Pain would yet be an unknown hermit,
For it too is in plentiful pain.
Pain is a plenty harried thing,
It too gazes into the stars and watches the days go by without reform;
Pain grieves for the pain it feels deep inside,
Pain too struggles against exploit and harm.
Pain is the seedling of the plant of the tree,
Of Life, which is nothing without this pain;
And I do not crave Pain and it does not crave me,
For it too is in plentiful pain.

Pain, Pain
Pain, Pain go away
don’t let me live another day
don’t let me be
don’t you see
I want to die
Never again to cry
Pain, Pain go away
don’t let me live another day
The frequent tears
Living with fears
don’t you see
I don’t want to be me
Pain, Pain please go away
don’t let me live another day
Let me go
Let the blood flow
Just let me die
Never again to cry

Fire and Ice! ! !
I got the inspiration for this poem from a quote called 'Fire and Ice.'
This world will eventually come to an end.
But will we get to choose how it does?
What would you choose?
Fire or Ice?
Fire would burn everything.
It would be a fast death.
It would wipe out the whole world.
But would it be more humane than Ice?
Ice would slowly kill every living thing; Human or Plant.
Ice would chill everything to the very centre of their core.
Ice would take a while to wipe out this civilisation.
But is this more humane than Fire?
Neither would be humane;
But what would you rather?
Fire or Ice?

Humane
is a
mystery or magic
going to happen here
to unveil
the HUMANE
from human
a lovely
flower from bud
to receive the
good morn kiss
the sun's
tender hands
opens the
bud to flower
no mystery
no magic
just a
daily fare
human to HUMANE
too...
a natural daily fare
in that gathering
of HUMANE humans
in its glow and shine
the sun will be put to shame

Money Reins
Focus on money, I can't love human.
At the cost of money, I can't be humane.
Money must come to ensure my comfort.
Money must come to erect my ego.

To Attest To It
You're very much humane!
With your love towards me and of your concerns;
To attest to it,
For the very intent,
To support me,
For, everything in this life is possible! !
And, to attest to it from my experiences,
Because, you're very much humane.

Humane
There is only one animal
And let us speak plain'
Where the word humane
Has no domain.
A horse that is lame
After a fall
Will be put down
In no time at all.
Wildlife rescued from a fire
Half cooked, dying from the blaze
Will be released without debate
By mercy's needled fate.
An old companion animal totters
Prolonged with drugs and care
Until it is decided when
Its suffering we can no longer bare.
Could we not ask our suffering
Do you want exit from the pain
To be released with love and dignity
By the mercy and grace of the word humane?

God As A Super Computer
God is a super computer in which there are two folders,
Vile and humane,
.……………………. Vile ………………….
All the unfair work you do,
All the crimes you do,
All the injustice work you do,
…………………….. Humane ………………...
All the fair work you do,
All the social services you do,
All the justifiable work you do.
All the files of vile are converted to a new file called hard, sorrow and obstacles.
All the files of humane are
Converted to a new file called
Smooth, happiness and
Good living.

I Dare Not
I'll never dare to love again,
As I have loved you dear.
The price of pain I've had to live,
Has cost me far and near.
For you are my soul, as I am yours,
And you've wrenched us far apart.
I'll never walk these paths again,
For you live within my heart.
If I should stop to think and feel,
The wound grows ever wide,
And if I could pay the price of love,
You'd still be by my side.
How can we two souls not be one?
For it's very plain to see,
That we belong together yet,
For I am you and you are me.

Suffering
Suffering is good
Suffering is bad
It is all that you desire
It is all that you hate
You need it
You thrive for it
It's pain
It's pain
It's joy
It's joy
It's joy to know your alive
It's pain to know!
Die!
Die!
Die pain!
Live!
Live!
Live freedom!
Suffer the joy!

Interrupted dreams in the course of distorted intellect
1) across the ocean of silent maze of life allured by ignorance pained by water
2) lost in fluidity of identity-making proces
3) still going back to eternity of chance operation
4) machinery of emotion trained by forgetfulness of pained life
5) why you are stiving for life with the purpose of life
6) you are not lost but you are lousy with loss
7) seven is still just seven
A Lesson In Pain
pain is a weapon of self destruction
pain should be kept to yourself
wave it around for others to see and your only generating more pain
pain for sympathy?
theres no honor in that
fight your pain
dont let it control a single action
dont wallow in it
feed your pain and you are lost
if you love, love honestly
while u live, live realistically
no fairy tales. reality.
For Human Greed
We may as well try to find another Planet to live on
Since people they cannot live on the Moon
And Mother Earth the Planet that sustains us
We in our fits of madness choose to ruin.
And perhaps there's not another Planet out there
For human beings to live on and destroy
'Twould seem indeed that the price of human progress
Comes at a cost and the cost seems far too high.
Each day more creatures of extinction endangered
When the land they live on we choose to invade
And extinction sad to say it is forever
For human greed the price has to be paid.
We are paving the way to our own extinction
Where humans live pollution becomes rife
The World will not end with the death of the last human
And Nature will do nicely without human life.
We had better find another Planet to live on
Or become extinct as a species that's our choice
As we are making the Planet we live on for us quite unlivable
For human greed that seems too high a price.

Cost-benefit analysis
Any government economic project
Should involve cost-benefit analysis
Before implementation.
Calculation of cost must involve
Market survey cost, establishment cost, labor cost
Production cost, marketing cost and so forth.
Calculation of benefit must include
Financial benefit, social benefit
Political benefit and so on.
The governments should take into account
Whether there is skilled manpower
In the country to run the project or not?
They should also consider
The possibility of change
Of technology to be used
In near future in other countries.
Thus the viability of the project
Can be justified before implementation
In order to avoid wastage of money and time.

Hidden Help
The things that pained me the most helped me to find what helps me to heal
Pain and isolation helped me to blossom
Like a newborn turtle on a journey to sea the trials make me stronger
Although the times seemed terrible they fueled my passions
The memories of the bad situations help me to remember where I've been what I've overcome
Now that the trouble is no more I feel that the inspiration is gone
My stitched wounds are reopening the pain begins again
You never know the benefits of a bad situation until it's too late

This Holiday Season
As we gather round our tables and break bread
We need to remember those who are dead
The ones who we've lost in so many senseless wars
The children that were abducted by the wicked deep in gore
The women who have been denied their right to walk free
In our streets and our towns because of the disrespect that we breed
By hooligans, perverts, and the criminally insane
Our societies so sick that it threatens our gains
When will we become a land of care and concern
When will we be responsible for the crimes we have learned
When will we acknowledge the madness and the greed
In our need for more money and our neglect of those in need
We can never be humane while we ignore all these crimes
And deny really treating the ill and confined
If we do not take hold and be true to just this
Our existence will be only a pause in the mist
Let us do what's right for the world where we live
Equal pay and equal rights for the people who live
In the shelters and cabins and castles and lands
We need to be beholding for all they demand
Our world is a Hodge podge of worldly delights
It's up to us all to recognize our own plight
And address the woes of being less than human
So that we may be a race humane once again

Pain in my mind
Pain in my mind
Pain is what I go through,
Everyday
This pain fills me
Pain stuffed inside of me
Pain of stress on my life
You can feel the pain in my heart
I hide the pain behind the smile
I see myself in the past and I,
Dont want to return
I never knew how much pain,
cant hurt.
The memories of pain live,
on and on,
So much sadness in me
Years have passed,
Life begins again.

'You do not feel my pain
'You do not feel my pain?
with this phrase I've won since a woman and made to cross an ocean '
more I add this poem
'you do not feel my pain
because I came to a world of suffering
you do not feel my pain
it hurts me constantly invades
you do not feel my pain
because all they see is and not feel
you do not feel my pain
because you see and not look
you do not feel my pain
because you all is apparent
you do not feel my pain
because you live in the toughest of cowardice
you do not feel my pain
because you all are emphatic
you do not feel my pain
because you live in a selfish world
you do not feel my pain
because you is not true '
