Working Against Reason
A spiraling descent, another moral breakdown Layers of dissent settled heavily on the fate of days Vanishing spaces where pains can be expressed Disciplines have been sullied by diabolical minds Emerging pattern that spreads like an untamed devil Panic in the eyes, fear of an unknown transmorgification Existence at the crossroads of slowed evolution Pulling the reigns away from the rising ineptitude ~Amitav Continue reading Working Against Reason
Thus, The Purpose
Before a purpose blooms, the season’s turn dreary All this while, the pulses were racing Like the belly of a disturbing waterfall… dreams pulverized Without the agility of the fish, they sink deeper Pallor reflections off the waters… the rainbow arch is a dream A rare occurrence when the lone traveller is reminiscing Gauging the enormity of life, the volume of existence Purpose can bloom … Continue reading Thus, The Purpose
Shattering Mirrors
A mirror is persecuted For allowing the honest reflections To pierce the conscience, it is unnerving Those who never confronted the truth More resilient and persistent Derobes the sinister character It’s all there, bare and vulnerable Once powerful -Amitav Continue reading Shattering Mirrors
Cannot be Traced
The thoughts may seem to be disconnected from the antecedent Only the language has been carried still, to explain the experiences The reasons can be relevant partially There are no symptoms of thoughtlessness to have occurred When the subconscious train of thought was forced to detach Their residues have been somewhere along the way Numerous impressions along the journey collect them Constitution of thoughts are … Continue reading Cannot be Traced
Indecent Influence
Upon whose influence do you import those ideas? Without even communing with the necessary voices Roam the streets; the ones deserted by fashionable ideas Where there is penury, but traces of honesty too Moist eyes know, the grubby hands won’t be filled with wealth Mornings are mourned amidst the hunger pangs In contrast, dumb streets are lit up with offensive affluence Lazy morning, rather luxurious … Continue reading Indecent Influence
The Awkwardness
The awkward silence, furtive glances, uneasy shifting, and contorted feelings “Once upon a time…” is a vague introduction, quite common for a fairytale Whose denouement is a contrived happy feeling- language-legerdemain A creative way of colouring the similarities in all ages, but there’s no jubilant triumph The continual disparity, depravity of few, like a chain that locks itself around the next episodes Temerity erupts from … Continue reading The Awkwardness
Curious Complication
A curious man’s complicated mixture of emotions stare from the fragile apparatus Strange dyes of the confabulated world mix like an enigmatic solution Intermingle in a serpentine manner, as if the desires of the man is aroused by some ogre’s charm The rancorous smell emanating from it fills the dingy room like a ravenous demon This may not be enough; if the soul and flowing … Continue reading Curious Complication
From Words to Wisdom
If the words become too stubborn Spending too much time in the kiln Emptied emotions through the cracks Scorched and transformed, indifference The magician’s potion is not potent Torture of drowning them in a crucible Such drama to revive them; pithy sorcery Inescapable torture from excesses Embellished with fraudulence There’s a spectacle for everyone’s eyes Contempt and jeering for the hollow drama A spectator cannot … Continue reading From Words to Wisdom
Of Empowerment
Empowerment is a word that sits enigmatically between the dictionary pages. The mystery surrounding this word (empowerment) and the continuous apathy of humanity towards building a positive culture have failed miserably. Weakness is a human trait; it becomes ferociously pronounced when it comes to presenting power to someone. Power is a sensitive word that is stifled in the clenched fists of a coward. Mention of … Continue reading Of Empowerment
