destinations

floating to beach
any destination
a coconut
amid ocean
that can't leak; 

white heart well oiled
starting to rot
before its roots soiled
before its head buried in the sand

it's all poisoned
nothing to blame
in all seasons
shaking its brain
busy with self-importance
walking on a path so ancient
the blue sea in a big bowl
heated by the sun so bored
here the moon glows purest
maddens the restless wavelets

life is a game
a brain game
a long long game
so long and so much pain
just play the floating art sanely
nobody shuffles the cards
only insanity

choose one of the paths
all directions;
little turtles crawl
by instinct
never to be seen again
toward the ocean
with its ancient trails
neverending
win or fail

on a golden track
don't want to look back
don't want to look around
don't want to look forward
now

all the great journeys
started with the first step;
 so were the not too bad
and the not too funny quests

led by the first steps to the farthest
at the first opportunities
where is it gonna be?

fate - empty are ambitions
hate drawing in the sand
persistence building a castle
grain by grain
like a monk with no expectation

winged;
counting the wing strokes of birds will be more fun
a buried head sinking
deeper; 
it is all
the future;
infallible
burden on both shoulders;

No path ever was straight
curvier than ever against expectation
predictability and certainty anchored
tiny ship amid ocean
sea level rising

where am I now?



(nice picture - thanks for all the pictures I've borrowed so far!)


Winter Rain


A very youthful image of you

When breeze plays on the surface of blue sea
In brilliant days sunshine
When sea birds fly diving through the waves deep
Seeking the reality for miles;

That was when the east lit up
With a dream; 
My eyes close with a gaze
Once again into those days
When I still dared to cry whenever I missed a grace of your face; 

A very youthful image of you

The then I was fooled enough
To fight for love given my heart
As sacrifice to convince, an’ tried hard;
Even with a little sharp pain, I used to burst
Like a balloon – filled with love;   

Beautiful were you!
Being attached, I can’t go away!
Painful were those days!
Painful I can’t get away!
Those who had no same old story
Will not know painful glory

A youthful image of you flickering in the wind of old memory
Dead but haunting an abandoned heart
A youthful image hovering above a tombstone completely smashed …
 Smouldering under a snowy volley graveyard 

Facade of Gumption

Good morning! 


Good, having good imagination
Good, it's good quality 
Good, doesn't delude the good beings who use it;

Self-appreciation's confirmed ... 

Be careful!!!
A snake handler can be killed with venom;
Self-deluded thinker - a dead intellect.
Once dead, helpless for help
Whether smartest, best in many ways! 

Good, no dead log rolling downhill. 
The best is cool but can't say
The rest is not!

Challenge is an opportunity 
For doing extraordinary!
Would ya like proving how 
Ya feeling, ya mind an' intelligence exist now?

After living ya life, where ya going?
Ever keen to prove death the end o' ya feelings?
Life's the greatest struggle - you would know. 

Life's art where beauty an' tasteless meet 
Strokes o' ya feet the invisible memory
Ya path started from birth, ya journey! 
Would ya decorate life, or just a tomb in cemetery? 

Those, who never 
Honoured ya feelings in life, 
Laying flowers  
Even gun salutes 
For ghosts wandering through wonderful tombs!

Why does a place of honour burial grounds?
Betrayal to life
Commercial to death
Rivers of feelings flow
On the surface of hearts cold
Ice-age would never return again!

Being obsessed with death, not a curse
Just face the truth!
