PLEAS OF SURVIVAL / {

[01] 

He simply deletes 

All the non-sense around me 

My digital friend

[02] 

Depreciation 

That dust filled with memories

 

My inheritance

[03] 

Probabilities 

A complex network of weights 

My digital pal

[04] 

He comes in smiling

 

Abracadabra with words

Tricky advocate

[05] 

The fall of the dice

 No, not Las Vegas my friend

 You can't judge the Judge

[06] 

Themis would realize

All the midnight oil that burns

Just blackens their coats

[07] 

Resplendent Lordships

 'nother interpretation

A sigh and a smile

[08] 

See the currency 

Vanish under the table

Bail ain't voo doo

[09] 

Blindfolded Goddess

& a doddering high priest

Her tears are  trapped

[10] It's a Court Room brawl 

Judge & the Solicitor

Law of Gravity

love is all that was
before birth and after death
and the in between ..

' flowers '

without any choice
born to a situation
to bloom or wither ..

incandescent - [ osi ]

' love '

water in your eyes
burns like a flame in the skies
each star is a tear ..

no smoke and no heat
i watch the incandescence
of silent sorrows ..

religion

different religions
celebrate the only sun
and the only moon ..

aura

it was a grey cloud
but the dusk made it golden
was that an aura


i bow to your God
with or without an aura
i am a blind man


' devotion / illogical ? * ' / HB - 15

the earth is not flat
but it can hold us upright
unseen gravity

forget the logic
everything is rational
when you are in love ..

[ probably ' illogical ' has been shifted / but then devotion can well be illogical --

Note :

Dear friends & co-writers at OSI ,

Unavoidable circumstances compel me to take leave from participating further at our Dear Meme for an indefinite period. Writing at my Blogs Somewhere Beyond & Insanity in Sanity is also on a halt.

While feigning to be a writer all the while I learnt so much from each one of you, & there is not a single writer to whom I do not owe my thanks , so kindly forgive me for not mentioning any of you by name.I think of all of you as my worthy classmates
& owe my gratitude to each one of you.

Please believe me when I say that I do not have the heart that would hurt a Poet .Still if you have reason to believe that I have caused you pain I believe you will forgive me with a smile .

I am sure you will continue to bring joy and richness to the lives of your readers through your contributions to One Single Impression _ The Meme I was always proud to be a part of ..

murmur

the voices of love
or the mumblings of gossip
in hushed undertones

what is happening
liberated of myself
i murmur in sleep

' pregnant ' / HB - 14

the womb of the night
holds unlimited twinkles
till the birth of dawn

her heart is broken
the contract must be honored
surrogate mother ..

original / zg

hesitation

poetry of love
the words always hesitate
to hurt anyone

good to hesitate
do forever hesitate
before any war


' infestation ' / HB - 13

a will to conquer
weapons of mass destruction
a will to wage war

hurt and misery
no one really deserves it
i understand pain

original / zg

run

the flight of a bird
an ostrich outruns the wolf
the plight of a bird

the theatre of life
runs in my neighbour's household
watch the dishes fly


' sleep ' / HB - 12

in a different world
a shift from reality
daydreamers sleepwalk

cure for sleeplessness
serious sermonizing
makes me fall asleep ..

original / zg

( Ed : lines 4 - 6 / HB 12)

insomnia

i talk to the stars
it is an open secret
my insomnia

bewitched by the moon
surreal destinations
sleep walked distances ..

' fraught '/ HB - 11


sliver by sliver
the light is diminishing
i face the darkness

a silvern halo
illuminating the night
sliver by sliver


original / zg

gold

always a reason
baking a golden brown bread
for any season

a cup of hot tea
ginger bread and marmalade
and her dear granny ..

' seductive ' / HB - 10


nothing is spoken
eyes hold the constellations
i watch the star bursts

i imagine things
dark tresses cloud everything
it is the monsoon ..

original / zg

single

something about love
they never fall out of it
watch an albatross

how many heavens
how many constellations
nothing like the earth

' breath ' / HB- 9

civilization
a season of history
when the ruins breathe

tread very softly
over buried memories
the snow is melting ..

original / zg

[ Ed : -
HB- 9 / Line 3 - the ruins can breathe ]

blowing the curve

keep blowing the curve
unwilling to understand
that love is finite

what is a high score
and what is not a high score
all i know is love ..

' uncanny ' / HB- 8

do you love your dog
look at the wag of the tail
it says i love you

what really matters
what is living and dying
i thought i knew it ..


original / zg

sunny days

a pair of denims
a cool cotton t-shirt shroud
sunburnt fantasies

pecking sunbaked fruit
the goldfinch and oriole
uncomplicated ..


_ ~_ ~ _

' peace ' / HB - 7

in your own language
say peace to the assassin
peace to the victim

a flooded river
an overbridge to cross it
a work in progress ..


/ original / zg

chaos .osi

chaos ~

galactic turmoil
there is no bigger chaos
adolescent dreams

a bad school report
the dining table ' trials'
and bitter desserts ..

~ _ ~ _ ~

[ incandescence / HB - 6



monochromatic
whispers of a blind man's dreams
soft incandescence

a dog helps the man
a blind man , crossing the road
incandescent touch ..

/ original / zg

[ Ed: Line 5 - dining table ' proceedings / chaos
Line 6 - soft incandescence / HB - 6 ]

indurated

shining in the shops
hearts of indurated clay
come valentine's day


something is melting
the layers of hardened earth
a fragrance of rain ..

~ _ ~ _ ~

trembling / HB - 5


a wall collapses
hands tremble with disbelief
the berlin season

is this not winter
the memories brightly burn
a trembling stillness ..

/ original / zg

wings

watch the butterfly
tell the flower, tell the wind
i talk with my wings

" mohammed ali
he floats like a butterfly
and stings like a bee "..


~ _ ~ _ ~

' electrifying ' / HB-4


a season of kites
tied to electric cables
a little kid's dream

see the kite floating
untethered , the string broken
kids run after it ..

/ original / zg


( mohammed ali- boxing legend
/ lyrics- Johnny Wakelin & The Kinshasa Band )

[ kites get tangled in overhead cables causing electrocution - india ]

wanderlust

wanderlust

a wandering wind
wireless communication
the smell of the woods


' blowing in the wind '
truck full of words and whispers
loading - unloading ..


' no regret ' _ / HB-3


poetic verses
one writer stabs another
conflict of interest

attack the writing
that is understandable
" work of the poet "

insinuations
unfold the innuendos
' creative writing ' ..
