Chances are the first causes
A lighthouse is powerful,
more by its reflectors.
A man is popular,
more by chances.
Be not proud of what you are.

To know by cast is not evil
The post you hold,
The background you possess,
And the past you earn,
You are proud
To identify yourself with.
What harm will you incur
If you identify with
The high caste that you are?

India, a loosely knitted kingdom.
We’re proud of India, not of being Indian.
A tamil likes more a Srilankan tamil.
A Bengali loves a Bangladeshi more.
A muslim has his soul in Pakistan.
Indians are a sack of gooseberries.

The Lighthouse
The Lighthouse
By: Adam M. Snow
Come to my lighthouse;
so that I may light your way.
Come to my lighthouse;
a place for you to stay.
Where darkness hides;
the demons flees.
For I'll provide;
and you'll be at ease.
Come to my lighthouse;
for all is welcome;
even your spouse;
and those who are numb.
Come to my lighthouse;
my friend, my child.
to a place where there is no louse;
for you are also mild.
Come to my lighthouse;
so that I may light your way.
Come to my lighthouse;
a place for you to stay.

Be proud of yourself.
Your son is a physician
And the daughter, a musician,
You are proud.
Your brothers and sisters
Are in high position,
You are proud.
Your father is a lawyer
And mother, a singer,
You are proud.
See, none of them
Are proud of you.
In priding you are failing.

Train your skills
Be proud, rightly so,
That you are an artisan,
An intellectual or an inventor.
You get respect.
Being rich brings in jealousy.
Being powerful generates enmity.

Twenty Zero One
2001 - where do I belong
I got my mind but I dont know where my head has gone
2001 - baby where you been
Its pornographic, internet, traffic on my screen
2001 - shes just a maniac
Its not for me but my baby really needs a crack
2001 - dont want the sex to stop
I took a pill now its killing me to keep it up
2001 - I know whats goin on
You wanna take my soul and change it for another one
2001 - those liquid crystal eyes, they really suit you honey
Let me get them in your size
2001 - by 2032 you can be me, and with a little luck
I can be you
2001 - let me bless you son
Help you believe with my semi-automatic gun

Ability is the immovable asset.
Be proud that you are an artiste.
Be proud that you are an intellectual.
Be not proud that you are a king or queen
Of which you can be stripped.

Ego- evil cum good
From this world,
You have to go.
I have to go.
Every one does.
Then, must not our ego go
before we go?
Often we go
Because our ego defies to go.
Ego is there to defend.
It is there to offend too.

Film and woman for man
Some, we ignored to see.
Some, we cursed having seen.
Some, we remember having seen.
Some, we desire to see again.
Some, we lose interest to see later..

Traits of intelligence
Some are speakers, some writers.
Some are workers, some leaders.
No one is four in one.
Choose, accordingly, the profession.

Conduct the urge
Hunger is there,
Sleep is there,
Sex is there,
In your gene.
They demand.
Suppress not;
Set free not;
Conduct them.

Fashion
Can you define fashion?
It is the one that replaces the present
with a previous one.
The oldest become newer than new.

Havoc of beauty.
He had many friends.
They offered him help.
They showered him with gifts.
His wife knows it is for her face.
He will understand it lately.

Be a provider, to love.
Some one strong, big or rich
Only, a woman wants,
For thrust, hold and comfort.
Least is a handsome man.

Be free
A follower is a slave.
A leader is a rogue.
Neither, you choose to be.
Then you are open to view.

Every flower has bloom
The bud, yours is tomorrow.
The flower, yours is today.
The withered, yours was yesterday.
Every cat has a day.
Hope, joy and reminiscence stay.

Society- a necessary evil.
Society is resistant.
But for it, where is your pride?
Without it, where is identity?
In privacy, where is intimacy?
You can’t walk without resistance.

My Proud Ness
Songs are there, popular for lyrics
With writers unknown and popular
For music with the composers unknown.
I, a dwarf, am proud of my products.

Poem is the thirst of the poet
Sakuntala was not as much a beauty.
Poet Kalidasa made her so.
He did it to show his mettle
And thirst in his Sakuntalam
