Intellect
You might have possessed so many things
The stars, the sun, the moon, the whole universe
But if you have not possessed me
You possess nothing!
You are a blunt, a dullard dull
The beggar of the street.
You might be proud of so many things which
One can't have today but tomorrow can
And all these things dwindle when you distribute
But I am the exception and the opposite
The maximum use of anything is a poison
But I become the nectar if you use the maximum
You might have written on so many things
from hell to heaven
You might have composed so many poems
from complex to simple
But if you have not on me,
you have written or composed nothing!
you are neither a poet nor a writer.
you have not achieved anything either!
You might have believed on so many things
But if you have not believed me
You have believed nothing
As I am the unbelievable to believe
The strength, the power
If you hone me
I cut, cut very sharply
I create, create very absolutely
I can give the desires the wings
I can make fly the colorful dreams..
So hone me, hone me! hone me!
You might have sung so many songs
But If you have not sung the song of me
You are not a singer
You are a deaf!
You are a dumb!
So sing intellect! intellect! intellect!
Sing intellect! intellect! intellect!
The creator of every human creations
The inventor of every inventions
The real power, the real beauty
The real achievement of human history.

None speak of the bravery, the might, or the intellect of Jesus; but the devil is always imagined as a being of acute intellect, political cunning, and the fiercest courage. These universal and instinctive tendencies of the human mind reveal much.

The role of intellect
Play instincts help one create things
Sexual instincts help one build things.
Aesthetic senses help one perfect things.
Slavery tendencies help one run things.
The world is not built by intellect
Which boasts it governs the world.

We should not pretend to understand the world only by the intellect. The judgement of the intellect is only part of the truth.
Seers with intellects
Intellect is behind a mission’s success.
Ideals it stands for matters the least.
One’s intellect sees it grow and branch.
Seers’ intellects not virtues make them great.

Language is the soul of intellect, and reading is the essential process by which that intellect is cultivated beyond the commonplace experiences of everyday life.

As you see, I do not treat the creation of fiction, that to say the invention and development of fantasies, as a form of abstract thought. I don't wish to deny the uses of the intellect, but sometimes one has the intuition that the intellect by itself will lead one nowhere.

In This New Year....
New Year is coming …….
This time I will not open my eyes
I will see world though the eyes of my child,
i will be happy in all the things she cherish upon
…try to match to her intellect
I will try to make my own language like hers
We both will create our own culture
We will create our own religion
And will not be paranoid
towards sub culture we don’t understand
We will be smiling to everyone we know
And we don’t know,
We will welcome anyone in this earth, who smiles,
We are scared of noisy things,
And will stay away from them,
We will be pleasant to see people blissful
If we express love, we will not call them gullible
We will create a paradise of emotional fools!

Tye
I was once a great queen of Egypt,
Though I ‘am just a lifeless mummy now,
I was once at the heart of Egyptian life,
I became first queen of real power,
I helped shape history through my actions,
My name still lives on today,
People still carry my name after all these years,
I have become as close to immortal as any human can,
History still remembers who I was,
The Tye name lives on across the world,
People still us my name with pride,
Though I died so long ago I still live on,
Showing the world what I achieved,
I was the first woman to become an equal to men,
People respected me for my wisdom and intellect,
I paved the way for all those who followed me,
I was the first of many great queens though-out history,
I ‘am a sign of what could be achieved by one person.

The Song Unsung
So many people have sung so many songs
But they have not sung the song of You,
They are all unfortunate deaf and dumb
They have all forgotten about You
You are the song unsung
The intellectuality- the perfect beauty-
That is one thing men have achieved throughout history.
Oh! the creator of the song
I pray to thee-
To open their mind so wide
That the cosmos can not hold.
Make their heart so deep
That the measure can not fathom it.
Raise their standard so high
That the standard stands meaningless.
Make their voice so loud
That the eternal silence broken,
And even then deaf and dump can listen,
Make their voice so sweet
So that when they sing the song of you
Along with stones they will all start crying.
Oh! the creator of the song
I pray to thee
To mingle me with you,
The most eternal, the most exceptional,
So tight that the separation is impossible for me.
If they try to separate the song and the singer
Make all the things dust
Make the events of future for ever the events of past.
If they try to bring down the poet and the poem
Make all the things a ball of fire
And for ever, stop the motion of the gyre
To bring down the final destruction,
By starting the shrinking and stopping the expansion.
Oh! the creator of the poem
I pray to thee
The perfect
The beauty
The truth, the absolute.
Make me
Like you.
And make them too!
So that we can write of you.
The greatest song
The song of the universe.
The perfect immortality of intellectuality.
_________________________ _______________

The song itself is about intellectuality,
and the intellectuality is the perfect beauty,
the creator of intellectuality can not be imperfect,
Can He? the three terms 'intellectuality-the perfect beauty and god ' are not separated, they are mingled in one,
and the poet wants to mingle with Him along with other bards.

My great religion is a belief in the blood, the flesh, as being wiser than the intellect. We can go wrong in our minds. But what our blood feels and believes and says, is always true. The intellect is only a bit and a bridle.

Sonnet: We Need God’s Blessings in All Things We Do
You need to plan in advance, well in life,
To do a lot of things you undertake;
No one predicts when comes our unique strife;
You ought to know the technique to bake cake.
Man’s planning is not very accurate;
The human mind is good but not too good;
Depends on weather, how you navigate;
More things can go awry, if bad is mood.
Though you may plan and do things so perfect,
God’s blessings must be there to bring success;
All things are wrought by not man’s intellect;
God’s help can make problems surely less.
You plan and toil to achieve many things;
But pray to God to bless your work, earthlings!

My intellectual shortcomings
He loves books
Books that he cannot buy
He gets the intellect
He gets the mind
He gets rich in time
Trusting his instincts
He buys books
That he cannot read anymore
He gets so many minds
He loses his intellect
With all regret to what
Happened, he loses his face
And wants to recover at least his eyes
By writing some of these poems.

Some people think only intellect counts: knowing how to solve problems, knowing how to get by, knowing how to identify an advantage and seize it. But the functions of intellect are insufficient without courage, love, friendship, compassion and empathy.

I want to ask You to reveal to me
I want to ask You to reveal to me,
to let me find
that which no one else knows
to bind my soul, my intellect, my hand
to the things that would blind others
and to lead me to understand
things far above human conception
and when You someday measure my humanity
to get a element of Yourself
of Your greatest words in me
and may You always stay in my heart
and may I find rescue
only in Thee.
