What do we call the people?


There is enough ridicule in the world
to amuse anyone with a sense of humor.
There is enough frivolity in the world,
to crush anyone with a pinch of substance.
There is enough cruelity in the world,
to redefine meaning of humane.

Common man,
a victim that has been,
since the dawn of time,
victimizing its protectors.

The ‘feel-ers’,
who are kind enough
to discard their  ‘feelings’ in a jiffy
and change their ships,
the platoons and symbols of sacrifice,
the first ones to abandon
a sinking ship.
History is proof.
The Church,
 the symbols of humanity,
burned Galileo alive;
The innocent bystanders,
bystood innocently
 the great pyre of Science.

The people,
the symbol of love and integrity,
the fighters, the patriots,
the first ones to renounce Chanakya -
who fought for their country,
the first ones to write books
on Alexander The Great,
who ‘came’, who ‘saw’, and who’ conquered’!

Martyrs, or Martyr –makers?
What is the right name for people?
People – who worship Gandhi
because he never took up a weapon
but let Indians burn,
And never speak of Savarkar,
to fight for their country.

DEAD is the word for them,
breathing corpses
the watchdogs of American companies,
the critics of their very own companies.

 Dead,
the people to criticize the Government for five years
then vote for the same govt on the fifth.

Dead,
The people who comment on everything
and hand the baton
when it comes to action.

Dead,
people who criticize the producer
and consume his very product.

Dead,
the people who condemn an artist throughout life
& quote his great works
on his funeral.

Dead,
if they are not dead
then who knows what they are.
But one thing is for certain
Whatever people are,
they most certainly are not human!
THEY MOST CERTAINLY ARE NOT HUMAN!!

I!

Veni, Vedi, Vinci;
I came, I saw, I conquered.
I dreamt, I created, I flunked.
I learnt, I copied, I succeeded.

Blindly we follow traditions
with no knowledge of their reasons
sabotaging their purpose
and slaughtering their integrity.

I 


A single word that has ceased to exist.

Human race 
is not becoming selfish.
Human race 
is losing the value of self.

Self sacrifice we speak of
but what will you sacrifice
when you have no self?

'Ideas come to life'
and are slained
by the Peter Keatings of this Earth.

Honesty, Purity of Heart, Love...
meaningless, purposeless talks.

Honesty is not spilling one's beans.
Honesty is being true to one own self.
To proudly speak your opinion.

Purity of heart does not mean 
cleansing heart with a bleach
or going to Amarnath, Mecca, Vatican.
Purity of heart 
is the ability of being able to define self.

Love...
Lone one self.
Love one's dignity.

I is not a curse.
I is Creationism.
I is truth.

I is SELF!

HUMANITY

So beautiful and graceful
the world has become,
economically awesome
but humanely gruesome.

Like night has to gather
like clouds have to rain
like pain has to prevail
death has to occur.

So why is there
no time for the dead
no one in the church
no one attending a cremation.

Why is this world so pretentious
nothing but a feigned caress,
a fake tear blossoming from the eye?

People talking over the dead
laughing over the very coffin
and nowhere else
but in the House of Christ itself.

Disgusting is the word
that comes to mind
when I see all these pretensions.

Is there no reason left
to cry for those
never coming back?

Has the humanity gone
like tsunami in the Indian ocean?

Is there no groping around
looking for a reason
to adjust yourself
in the absence of a beloved?

No more pain no more tears
all humans care about
is a stupid fear.

Homework not done,
boyfriend's with another girl,
an essay left undone,
physics not learnt.

Is that life?
Is that the only motive to survive?

God save this world.
In your own home
they go without a soul.
In your own lap
they climb to escape a trap.

Save this world,
no human is here
only the mutant spawn
crushing humanity,
asphyxiating rationality,
and spreading in this world
all the anti-God, anti-human spirit
so that love is executed
and in its place left behind
is nothing but an emotionless,
inhumane lie!
