The Real Self
the physique
such a little part
of oneself
expression
of limitations
the real self
travels all spheres
the mind struggles
to break through

Game For Gods And Goddesses
a paradox
the man is
a mind free
to roam
but in a
physique
that dictates
maxims of
limitations
the cells are
screws to pin
him down
to make sure
he does not
run away
from a real
life game
crafted for
the leisure
of gods and
goddesses

It's unstoppable
Mind the mysterious object fueled by passion
Travels very faster, within a second goes to my native soil
And bring various pictures of the loved ones,
And the fat politicians, it's really amazing
How they developed their physique without any exercise?
I realized it's unstoppable like the mind.

Poem about Poetry - Getting Real with Oneself
poetry is about getting real
with oneself while we go find
oneself in the mace of traffic
of human expressions
acquired or self invented
so that we can use them
effectively as a gift to cross
the bridge to human hearts
it is about carrying roses or orchids
to beautify humanity or be
be at a loss of what to do in the face
of such challenge falling head over heel
it is about a butterfly that hides
itself in a harsh dried leaf to one day
finds its real self and flies away with a divine
expression, flipping, flapping, flipping
didacting melancholy through a prismatic
and honeyed state of transcience

Love begs to cross the line
it is late grandma again
the world she is in
that wraps me in
a strange coldness,
a dense vibration that stirs
the senses of my other faculty
we know each other's presence
silence speaks volumes
of truth at times like this
me; a physique with all its limitations
she; a soul with all its limitations
between us, a love that begs to cross the line
....other faculty means....extra sensory perception

In his image
god creates the physique
as a compass
to him
the body a sanctum
to cultivate
the soul
god creates the physique
as a guide to
finetune his soul
god creates the physique
a tool to upgrade the
vibrations of the soul
in order that it can fit
nicely into the mould of god
god creates the physique
to see how far man
can veer away from him
the physique a piano
songs of the soul
are played

Just Be You
When one looks at history
We can either
Learn from the past
To adapt to the present
So you can
Face tomorrow's mysteries
The age old question
We all ask
Can we better ourselves?
To better oneself
You must be brave
To better oneself
You must know love
To better oneself
You must be strong
To better oneself
You must believe
To better oneself
You must learn to share
To better oneself
Just be you
After learning all
Of life's mysteries
One must discover
To be true to
Thine own self
Just be you

Mind is consciousness which has put on limitations. You are originally unlimited and perfect. Later you take on limitations and become the mind.

Divine pleasure and vengeance
the physique
nails me down
to live its own
the soul trails
every sphere
my eyes see
the prison the
physique is in
i could be rainbow
the spring,
the trees that
start budding
to turn green
or the lightning
that gives way
to roaring thunder
my physique is
a pen to record
divine pleasure
and vengenace

0017 And Where The Joy
This, then, the question
for those whom it may concern –
to find a celebration in oneself
that, as outer is, so inner;
that all truth rests within oneself –
for where else can it be found?
to love oneself – for oneself must be loveable,
or none other could be loved for true;
to know all happiness to be within;
to celebrate all this; the world a constant joy;
to find this celebration in oneself.

Self indulgences.
The one who talks much of oneself
Is doing so to conceal as much oneself.
The one who curses much oneself
Is doing so to get pity for oneself.

The real master
a part of me
i could name you
all their functions
a part of me
i could not fathom
the master
behind them all
the same master
works the lotus
each morn
petal by petal
little by little
till it dances
like a pretty lass
the water
when it drips its last
from the world
i too would follow suit
when the master
thinks it time for
all the blooms
to call it a day
and say goodbye
i too would follow suit
the plants, water, light
and me are one
as blood is to this physique
me bound to the world
tight as steel
though free to roam
mother and child
when the conscious part,
the physique go
i join the trees, water, and the master
to work his world
late grandma
see she is now a row of seeds

You & Me
Part of me wants to break the ice
And part of me wants to roll the dice
Exactly how it stands
Part of me wants to roll the dice
And part of me wants to leave them curled up in my hands
Where they will be safe and no one will know
How I really feel and Ill never be real
And Ill roll with the punches that Ill never feel
And Ill have a heart that no one can steal
Chorus
Its you and me and youre nowhere to be found
Im rolling on the ground
Its me and you and Im nowhere to be found
Part of me wants to break these chains
And part of me wants to keep them locked up tight
Part of me wants to stop these rains
And part of me wants them to fall all night
Fall on my head just to wake me up
Anything to drench my half empty cup
And Im sorry baby Ive had enough
Im tired of your promised tearing me up
Repeat chorus
You will be safe and no one will know
How you really feel and youll never be real
And youll roll with the punches that youll never feel
And youll have a heart that Ill never steal
Repeat chorus

Structure
The world is not structured
what you know isnt it at all
anything dolefull can be punctured
people too stuck up will fall
to emphatically eradicate the position
of some one in one elses heart
its how i hope to indition
then execute it from the start
the truth should be indifferent
my incite makes me elate
how much energy do you spend
trying to relate
what is real is only real to oneself
what is fake could be just as real to someone else
you are you
i am me
forever is how its gona be
because the mind is unalterable
they're generally the same
because they are so full
they are down to be restrain
the mind is structured
the world is not
but to accept a thought
is all we got
In Love
love i must say has no limitations
its nature is pervading,
always in the mood for sharing
resources, physical and whatever
it does not stay
in one place, it travels to places
of the heart, expands, evaporates
and become the part of the clouds
the essence of an ever protecting sky
love, i must say, cannot be limited
to just one person,
it goes beyond unity and fidelity
it is always giving itself to another,
i am not hiding, i am love,
i am married, but it does not really matter,
it is man that makes marriages,
it is man that breaks this law
this law that limits the power of love
to love and love and love again and again
how can i conceal this love
that i have for you?
it burns itself, makes a smoke, goes out of the chimney
and shows itself to you
it gives you the smell of my soul
it pleads
to be loved in return
but even if you do not reciprocate it
it goes beyond refusal
it goes up again
and become part of heaven
the universe, the galaxies,
the infinite....
