A Penalty For The Effects
The effects deliver a penalty, for them we contrive,
The inventors are awake in the old yard, picking and solving.
May they all lose once and for all, in the efforts to investigate
What may be the solution for your problem so highly regarded.
Irate officers bloom in ways called flower, the opposites,
The palatial rooms of a man’s heart, so blowing away the trust,
Understanding the tasks of religion when asked, demanding less
Every day, the next days are hard to explore and they start to be cruel.
Less knowledge is employed for the benefit of humanity,
The effects of a river dive into the blue waters, so oceanic.

One Problem At A Time
No one person can solve
all the problems of the world,
but if we all united,
we could solve
one problem at a time.
If all countries of the world
could learn to trust one another,
instead of being suspicious of one another,
we could solve
one problem at a time.
If we could see no difference
within another person
because of their colour or their religion,
we could all unite
and start solving
one problem at a time.
Unfortunately, no one person can do it,
but one person can start it,
then collectively we can begin
to turn things around
and start solving
one problem at a time.

Get Closer To You
We graduated
From school
From college
To understand
The natural laws
That drive the happenings around
And to discover
And invent
New technology
And present to the world
New correlations
Between causes and effects
It is an understanding of
Well defined realities
We got employed
To serve the community first
And make a living in the process
And importantly
To understand others
Of their expectations from us
Based on our knowledge
Skill and experience
And to create friendship
Most of us aim at
Enhancing our living ways
And end up
Extending our reach
It is an understanding of
The world around you
We choose our life partners
And enter into relationships
Contribute to the
Continuation of human chain
We get exposed to
Understanding of
Relatives and
Social customs
Prevailing in the
Tradition you belong to
It is an understanding
Of bonds and emotions therein
We are left alone at times
During it-is-all-your-time
We keep scheming
On how-to-go-abouts
In respect of any of the
Above three
Hardly we find time
To understand ourselves
To explore ourselves
To observe ourselves
To scan and monitor ourselves
To discover our in-built new potentials
Find time to do these
It is an understanding
of thyself
And
Get closer to you

The drowsy effects
Liqueur is sought
For its drowsy effects
Rather than for its
Early electrifying effects.
Woman is sought
For her drowsy effects,
Not for stimulating effects.

Fresh Ideas.
How about this a schooling program for the those collecting unemployment through the internet or at a place such as csiu as a requirement of collecting it.
How about this a plan to get those not employed, employed.
Jobs, Jobs, Jobs.
A kick start to an engine that has stalled.
Why are we still not fixing this?
Are you telling me that no one has a solution?
No ideas, that benefit everyone.
I say to you the American, throw them out their.
Speak up for we need to not only be heard.
But we also need fresh ideas.
From those who are always quite.
Every opinion counts and everyone needs to be heard.
If not then we need to ask, for you to think.
Out of the box, and in to the grassy plains.
Each blade of grass blowing its own way.

Other effects in the show included models of the ships which were extremely expensive to make. We used to do our shots in front of a blue screen and they'd put the effects on after.

The Hereafter
The very next heaven to reach is solute,
The solvent is holy water,
And so we have the solution: Religion.
Drink please this liquid, something for us,
It consists of beauty, reluctance and willingness.
A religious belief is wicked to the evil ones,
A religious scholar enhances our time forever.
May the storage of knowledge be called wisdom,
To give this is most generous, most loving.
A heavenly exam will state others
Who hide, others who start and stop;
Forming a bond cancels partnerships with wrong doctrines,
The solution to a problem can be found.

Deliver Me Out
Deliver me out of the river of your love,
And do not allow me to be drawn;
For i am in the deep waters of your love and,
You stood in awe because you were moved by my passion.
Of the emotions of this river,
I am in the deep waters of your love and i need help;
And you have to put joy into my heart to deliver me out!
You are all about this river and i need your deliverance,
So come and save me and take me home;
For the one who needs my love also wants me on this case.
This river has taken me so far,
So come and deliver me out of this deep water of your love!
For i'm about to sink into the mire of deep places.
Fill my lips with rejoicing and come forward to me,
For my heart desires to meet you around;
But listen to the pleadings from my mouth of love,
For i am in the deep waters of your sweet love!

Investigation may be likened to the long months of pregnancy, and solving a problem to the day of birth. To investigate a problem is, indeed, to solve it.

Deliver Me
deliver me...
from the fury, the noise,
and the roar of the wheel...
deliver me...
from my own insecurities,
my unconscious greed,
and my self driven fears.
deliver me...
from my conceptual understanding,
my limited knowledge,
and my worship of knowledge.
deliver me...
from all anger and hatred
in whatever disguise...
deliver me...
from being driven by
mouth and stomach unchecked,
from what i think i need.
deliver me..
from my countless mistakes,
and the excuses i make!
deliver me...
from any kind of pride
that closes the open hand!
deliver me...
from any sense of self
that would seperate and divide.
deliver me...
from laziness and tiredness,
from bitterness and lonliness.
deliver me...
from all forms of apathy,
and the want to possess...
deliver me...
and bring me to realize myself!

Sonnet: God Allows Changes
Whatever things had happened on this day,
Could they herald a newer dawn of change?
For good of every man in every way!
Or they predict onset of evils strange?
What changes come in hectic speed and range,
How can adapt all men to their effects?
In subtler ways in world if things do change,
There is good time to correct ill-effects.
All quote the laws but seldom obey them,
All want rewards without efforts or toil;
All throw granite but want to keep back gems,
All want to climb in life, yet others foil.
But prayers alter any equation,
For God decides the fate of men/nation.

The Effects of Racism
I was once invited to participate,
In a seminar.
To discuss the effects of racism,
Conducted many miles away in an isolated
Remote area
Distanced from where the effects took place.
Near my home.
And I was to be the only Black to appear,
On this prestigious panel.
I declined the offer.
Since I felt it was ridiculous,
To remove myself away from those 'effects'
While in discussion with others,
Who kept perpetuated the acceptance
Of expressed indifferences.
Plus I had attended another affair,
At the same location...
As others listened intently,
While I explained reasons for wearing my hair
In dreads!
And if it had an affect on my identity.
I was then asked to come again,
Next time I was in the area.
As if these 'settings' would be missed,
In my life!
And those who 'sympathized' with my plight,
Would embrace my need to receive their acceptance.
With an understanding of my internal turmoil.
Which, of course, had to depress,
My sensibilities.
Yes!
Only an eyewitness experiencing this,
Would appreciate the sacrifices I make.
Living amongst those who have not been so 'chosen'
To escape from their deprived and substandard conditions.
Inflicted upon them by those less liberal of deed.
I feel so blessed to be honored,
By those 'willing' to share their comfort zones!
However...
There is something about my own environment,
That affords me the freedom to express less pretentiousness.
Although I must say this,
Being a 'victim' of those who are racists...
Has, at times, been to my benefit.
At least I know where they are coming from.
And I have been given opportunities to avoid them!
With a choice to leave them and their preceptions,
'Impressed' upon their limited consciousness.
And I,
Could leave them alone to glorify their intentions.

Fit To Serve
When men serve the Eternal King, whether they preach or they sing,
It is The Lord above we praise, as hearts and voice to Him we raise.
All the service that He calls men to, The Lord above helps them do,
Equipping every believer He calls, to many tasks and various roles.
God helps us with the task at hand, in ways we may not understand,
By equipping each and everyone, when we come to faith in His Son.
By grace God allows men to serve, in ways we truly do not deserve,
Serving in ways hard to believe, after God’s Spirit we have received.
Through The Spirit God fills you with, all the knowledge and the gift,
The gift to use the knowledge inside, using The Spirit as your guide.
God above has a plan for all of us, if we’d simply believe and trust,
We can serve the Lord in many ways, all through these earthly days.
In your heart, The Lord instills, His Truth and knowledge, as He wills,
And this knowledge of The Lord, in your service, by God is poured,
Onto men, whom you reach, through your witness and your speech,
As The Lord God uses your whole life, as a vessel for Jesus Christ.
A new vessel that belongs to Him; Christ, who saved us from all sin,
Cleansed and fit for the service of, the Lord God, who reigns above.
Using people, just like you and me, to move others towards eternity,
Where we will serve forevermore, when we reign with Christ our Lord.

10 Days
Having been born in my own yard
I never knew a reason to leave.
But when a flower from the other side of the fence called my name
it brought me to consider.
But the prospect seemed ludicrous-
I shall stay on my side of the fence.
Upon closer look the beautiful flower again called my name
I saw the petals were smooth and green.
So I jumped the fence, and tried to place myself in the ground next to the flower
laboriously digging all around it, trying to become one with it.
The following 3 days, while I dug, the beautiful flower withered in the hot wind and on the fourth crumbled beside me.
Feeling compelled to myself wither and crumble with guilt
on the other side of the garden another flower called
feeling hopeless and tormented I followed the voice for four more days until I came upon the flower
standing alone on parched soil, famished and dying.
Suffocating in my own misery
for 2 days I attempted to penetrate through the dry, cracked ground to bind myself to this lone, beautiful flower I found among weeds and sticks
and eventually dug this flower up as well, which too died
I thought about where to go from here
but so weakened I myself began to wither and crack.
10 days after leaving my yard
my skin flaked off
my teeth fell out
my bones became ashes.

Life a mystery, not a problem
Life a mystery not a problem
Problem
Is a situation
Which does not allow you
To reach your goal or
To get things done
As per your original schedule
Once perceived as a problem
You make use of your
Knowledge, experience,
Skill and resources
To come over it
And you may reach your goal or
Get your things done
Even if delayed
And even if falling short of
Your expectations
If a situation is perceived as a mystery
It becomes a riddle
Likely you take it more as challenge
Not just a problem solving requirement
You wonder at the
Natural ways of things taking shape
You wonder at the
Variations in the perceptions of
Others and even among people close to you
And very likely you end up
With out-of-the box thinking
And get beyond traditional ways of
Looking at things
You may even set a trend
For new and innovative approach
To the problem, nay mystery
And this mindset will help you
Enjoy living
And expand your knowledge base
With regard to human behavior
And natural laws
Which only shape your future
And carve your life style
Take life as a mystery
And do away with the thinking
That it is a problem

Wrong actions are the result.
An effect is the result of many causes;
A cause might be the reason of many effects.
Causes and effects are often misconnected
And the wrong actions are executed thereby.

Forgive Me O, Friend
Forgive me o, my dearest friend
For pushing you to the corner or dead end
You were taken to smoking
And then to hashish and smacking
What kind of harm did me to you?
You were to pass all ordeals through
Was it intentional on my part?
Or was a just thought with wrong start?
I must blame my self first
As your parent had put enough of trust
That I shall help him till the last
I took him to deep and dark valley very fast
Was it an ignorance or fine show?
We wanted to be with time and grow
We never knew its ill effects
Just followed bad ways with acts
Not that alone I should be blamed for what has happened
The controversy had already taken place and sharpened
There was talk of the two and we were singled out
Shamed all along as there was nothing more to talk about
When it became know to us we acted very intelligently
We did not loose nerves and reacted very gently
We started to come out of its ill effects
Left everything coolly and preferred not to react
It worked well with strong support from all over
Parent too were sympathetic and provided cover
We did earnestly what ever we could to avoid bad show
The dirt of the river was removed so as to facilitate smooth flow
There has to be cross and double checks on movement
When child enters youth and waits for sweet moment
If he gets good company and proper environment
Everything can run smoothly and there may not be any room to resent

Cause and effect
Causes are deduced from effects.
Effects are predicted from causes
Future eludes from its complexities..

Birds and Us
Days are numbers and words,
When is the solution of birds?
They dive and deliver their praise,
Therefore their wings will amaze.
I must signify danger to their glare,
The very sight of a dozen men who stare.
We decide the losing people,
Birds merely sing and recover, they are defendable.
Their powers reply to ours
In ways of the air, the bazaars.
I can buy the book in the shop
But this bird is free and to chop.
