Our reason, which is supposed to make things more intelligible, seems to be making them less intelligible, and when reason thus defeats its own purpose something has to be changed in the structure of our reason itself.-Robert M. Pirsig Continue reading Rationale
Dubious outcomes are not uncommon Wrapped in insincere embellishments Broadcasting an auspicious future At the intersection of human feelings and electronic interference Only inference possible is that of exaggerated announcements Scripted like an oddly shaped vest to envelop the mind Since the arrival of seasons have altered, even, misappropriated Fruits of such laborious diatribes are insipid The world does not feel illuminated, but it still … Continue reading The Common Tiredness
Of Horatian satire, the summons of common follies Transforming into something more sinister Shrill, and extremely adamantine desires; often lethal criticisms From the extravagantly erring spirits- torching those intellectual fodder Wit is misunderstood in times of anti-intellectualism Morality pranks- yes, that’s the idea of depreciating celebrations Too many citrus fruits borne by the laborious efforts of futility Aggrieved tongue; and even the jaundiced thoughts aren’t … Continue reading Aggrieved

Mention of … Continue reading Of Empowerment

When intellectuals lose the plot And their vision is obfuscated The pen loses its potency And the ink diluted with bigotry The words will hold no value Only the weaknesses exposed For intellectuals are visionaries To lay emphasis on the right path Words that inspire future generations Teachings, with a balanced view Pen must uphold the righteousness To relentlessly spell words of wisdom A plot … Continue reading Write to Inspire
