The Unidentified.

If I am going write what I feel people will curse me. That much I disagree with many people. Consistency can be achieved only by being patient. Some people just don’t get it. If one is not consistent one will not know how life is going to be lost. I am not telling this from my own stupidity. I am telling this from a whole lot of life I have seen. I can proudly say, I know it, as I have seen it, heard it and felt it because to almost every corner of America I’ve been, and before that nearly 29 years I was in India, there too I have seen people failing making the same stupid mistake. There is one lesson I can tell everyone to listen, never define your life, if you do that, you are doomed to depression, sadness and many explode, many just can’t take it anymore and will kill themselves. One of my friend did that, he was like a twin brother for me. Sometime when we look back what we see may look like stupid mistakes. But those are the foundations that made us who we are, where we are and how we are. That is the reality in ones life, the nearest past. If you try to define everything in a box that don’t exist, by spitting at that past, what one will get is thin air. It may be very hard to understand what I am saying, but one day you all will know, I was right all the way.
 
I thought I will write a new poem and with a lot of work to do and it is nothing but Mainframe COBOL that is coming in my mind now I don’t think I will be able to write anything that is going to make any sense to anyone. Then I took an old poem, I wrote this poem when I was in Texas around early March of  2005. That was before I came to this site. Now why I left this poem out, when you read it you will understand the unbelievable situation. I did not modified this at all as is I am giving you this. If you think there is anything wrong, feel free to tell me.

Have a good day everyone.

The Unidentified.

The times have moved,
And the sounds of Nature changed,
The silent snow in warmth melted,
And came the thunders and giggling rains.

The ear piercing thunder shocked,
The wind danced her way to cover the face,
Nature celebrated the birth of a new Spring,
As night stretched his might across the lands. 

Oh’ through everything darkness crept,
The dark clouds stood over like armed guards,
Firing at will lightning and roaring thunders,
Shivering horizons and scaring sleeping crows.

The hazy windows stopping the darkness,
As the reflection of the scented candles seen,
Towards the corner of the room when looked,
Upon the couch as clear as a crsytal seen,
The image of a beauty I have never seen.
 
A dream or not I know not, shook my head,
Then I can see her smile, as to my eyes she looked,
Its not a dream as the smile I clearly can see,
Slowly I got up but no fear in my mind I felt,
“How did you got in here” with smile back, I asked,
Down first then up to the ceiling she looked,
Again the same question I asked as close to her I moved,
As if to stop me with an eye full of suprise,
She stretched her hands and I stopped,
She looked at the window with her hand stretched,
I did not moved as I stood and admired,
A beauty so perfect, for a long time I just stood.

Then the warmth of touch all over me at once I felt,
As I saw her fading slowly as breathless I just stood,
She is gone and the warmth I still felt,
With an aromatic scent filling my room,
Slowly and steadily I went to the sofa she sat,
Sitting where she sat, with all logic I thought,
What was it? I thought and thought and my mind too faded.
 
“Wake up man, wake up now” alarm roared,
And still I felt the wonderful smell she left,
Though my own senses I myself disbelieved,
When walking out to my car I noticed,
The old, died out rose thorn with a bud of rose.

Mirrors

I wrote a comment recently, which wasunfair, I don’t know what I was thinking when I wrote that comment ina girls site. My heartfelt apologies to her for that. In anothercomment I wrote to another person that it will take some strongconvincing for me to open the comments here. Well, it came reallystrong. The comments are open with my surrender. No RSS or Messaging.

Have a great day.

Mirrors.

Light travels faster than eyes can see,
Thoughts travels faster than light can show,
The silly mind though fails to think right,
But like a rubber band stretches and breaks,
Leaving scars none can heal.

Of all the knowledge one can learn,
The best are learned from none else but oneself,
The simplicities of a smile, the blink of an eye,
The tone of the speech and the beat of the heart,
O’ how wonderful mind can feel about life.

Sense in thoughts, senseless in acts,
Drags oneself through the madness of life,
All played like an endless drama,
Where one try with relentless passion,
To blend into an unreceptive nature.

Still search and search for way to define,
With ideas that blinds and deafens,
The rush through the ages like a roaring river,
Though the symbols were shown, seen and felt,
Unbelievable they all remains in shut out senses

O’ all forget, there is nothing to search for,
As everything is in the reflection of oneself,
All the in depth feelings of everything,
Comes from within and the life, world and nature,
Oh they all are mere mirrors that reflect the light of truth.

The Dagger

TheDagger

Cried, cried and cried,
No tears came,
Laughed laughed and laughed,
No one else laughed along.

A dagger was given with no choice,
A double edged one with no handle,
No matter how I touched,
Blood, blood and everything becamebloody,
Though no cuts were seen for the healerto heal,
Pain Pain Pain, Oh’ Pain no one elsecan feel.

Ran, ran ran and again and again I ran,
But the dagger followed everywhere Iwent,
The wounds no one else can see,
The pain no else can feel,
Oh, round round round along with EarthI too went.

But there are times when upon my ownface I fell,
And everything alive, dead and the nonliving burst,
Into laugh, laugh and laughs,
Tears comes to my eyes as they knownot,
The dagger pierced me at the time of mybirth.

Drawing A Face

It is very interesting how days goes by. A very tough day, I  just don’t know how I kept my composure all through the day. There are people out there who are totally business minded, who don’t care that it is people who works at computers to program them. There were many times I thought I’d say that I am not a computer. But luckily I have a very nice supervisor, she did all she can to keep me out of the reach of these jack asses. I told ya I will be taking a trip in the middle of the week. Rain, snow or shine I must do this. I don’t know how many more times I should do it. It is critical.

The poem came to me rather than me trying to get to it. I was watching a cold case show, I don’t remember what was the story line and in between I thought about drawing again. Well I did not draw, as, if I want to draw Katherine Morris I have to start drawing Julia Roberts. The connection I still was not able to figure out. So I don’t draw anymore, instead, I wrote this. Enjoy.

DrawingA Face.

In the sunlight facing westward she sat,
Not looking at anything but
The book of cheaper romance,
More beauty  inside than outside found,
Still upon the dry clean sheet the pencil I pressed.

Between the curly hair her pretty face shined,
And what dark part, the graphite pencil can draw,
Mind can figure out still the silhouette slowly started,
To appear on the sheet from her left temple that glowed,
The kind face of sun in every ray from her reflected.

The line the pencil drew so smooth,
Towards the eyebrow bending,
Then the dark eyebrow draw, curved,
The brittle eye lashes covered the edge of the eyes,
The eyeballs were hard to fix,
As if in a dream, fast they moved.

And a little bulge my pencil felt,
As a little smile upon her face blossomed,
As the pencil curved through her cheeks,
And came all the way towards the only ear I can see,
Between those curly hairs pointed hide and seek it played.

From the outlines the pencil went,
To copy the fainted shadows,
The smiling, rosy cheeks leave around the eyes,
Oh’ I can see the rays of the evening sun fight,
To land upon those eluding eyes.

Then the pencil went about draw her nose,
A little curve that went up to a tiny tip,
Those little nostrils where the air she breathed,
Oh’ that heart gets its air from those, I wondered,
As the three dimensional touch the pencil finished.

Then what remained were those lips,
They twisted and many times whispered,
That which she read and those occasional smiles,
The pencil in my hand as it finished her lips shivered,
As deep into mind the image of a beautiful face, merged.

Oh’ with an apologetic mind I walked away,
As deeper and deeper into her romance she fell,
Not knowing through tip of a pencil an artists too,
Felt a little crush at a beautiful poetry,
The unimaginable supreme being wrote.

Elton John – Please

This is one great song. Anyone who have a little interest in poetry listen to the lyrics of this song and see how wonderfully Elton John blended the music with for this song. That’s the mastery of Elton John. That’s the reason why I like his songs a lot. It will not instantly catch you and leave you once it is over, his music and Bernie Taupin’s lyrics kinda grows in you and becomes part of you. I loved listening to this song when I was writing the poem above.

Smile Of The Snowman

I thought I will sleep at 11:00PM but as I slept till3:00PM how will I sleep is a good question. Well I talked to mysister after a long time. She is happy. Today was warm here at leastthat’s what the weather man on T.V said. In the evening I went to thegrocery store, it was warm I bought food for the rest of the week.Well that’s all in this Sunday. Next Sunday what will I do is aquestion. I have a guitar I may play that all day. Well I don’t knowhow to play that is the only problem. It was bought as a stressbuster. Still I may play that in the best possible way. I want toavoid watching that super bowl damn can’t believe Packers are notplaying.

The poem, when snow falls all around one thing thatstands in every neighborhood, snowman, what do we see on him, a smileand after winter will be gone we still may remember the snowman aswhat we can remember of him, his smile. Here is what came of thatthought.

SmileOf The Snowman.

The mid winter evening fell prey to thegathering,
Of the dark clouds from west came andspread,
All around the horizon like an invadingarmy.
Then upon everything fell, the whitemischief of nature.

The next morning woke up to a feet ofsnow,
Then in the fun of all took birth thesnowman,
His big bulky belly and thin hands,
No clothes but a hat, but all smiled atthe well drawn smile.

He stood like the warrior guarding thetown,
The freeze gave him more life everyday,
All who looked at him smiled and walkedby,
And kids and grownups all at him waved.

The freeze went with the arrival of thenesting days,
The trees shook away the last bit offrost,
Little birds squeaked with all theirbody strength,
The snowman went underground as onlyhis hat can be seen.

As flowers bloomed and later warmth ofsummer came,
In golden evenings everyone scatteredin summer fun,
The games of love once more played withfull hands,
And love left with the golden rays ofthe evening sun.

When the soul was once more leftunloved,
Looking at the dusty torn hat Iremembered,
The only realistic smile my mind canremember,
The smile of the snowman in that winterfreeze.

I put my own picture in profile, because, couple ofmonths back a guy from here sent me a very romantic letter, I toldhim I am not gay. He told I am sorry, I thought you are a girl. Thenanother girl from here who added me to her Yahoo told me, she neverthought I am a man. Then in the last post I saw someone telling,write on girl. Daang.. so I don’t want anyone to think anymore I am agirl. Okay

I spent most of this Saturday sleeping. Then I listenedto music, meanwhile I chatted with couple of good friends. Just whenI was chatting with one of my friend she was telling me a lot of herdreams during her younger days. This is a first draft written out ofone of them, I am calling this a first draft because I don’t feelthat it is finished, to say in another way I don’t know if I was ableto express what I really wanted to express well. Then I thought whynot ask my friends here in Xanga to tell me what they think.

Here it is.

TheLove Of The Gypsy Lady.

A thousand beads she held on a her lap,
And with a whistle she strung them one by one,
But her mind one can figure away from there,
As the mid summer sun shied away between clouds.

The little birds flown around her fearless,
Bees flown around leaving the flowers,
As the wild beauty made a wild wild necklace,
For some unknown downtown girl.

In her younger days she wishfully believed,
The man of her dreams came upon that fat old tree,
Upon the wings of the angel of love,
And waited to hear from her every full moon night.

Every full moon night awake she stayed all night,
And sung songs of love that praised him well,
Songs of gladness and many times sadness in not seeing him,
Then her wishes, dreams and the care she may give.

In her young heart with dreams she made,
A small wooden house near the lake,
Where in the warmth of each others love,
Live days and nights until breaths will seize.

Never a face her dream have seen,
Though age grabbed her by her throat,
And all around the countryside wandered she,
And far away from her mans tree she went.

The world taught her there is none up there,
A man of her own kind wed her on a moonlit night,
In the years passed she gave birth to five pretty ones,
All of them made her a mom everyone wish to imitateonce.

When the last bead she strung and tied the necklace,
Her daughter with curious mind to her asked,

Who will wear such pretty beads, ma?”
A prince will buy this for his princess dear” momreplied.

Oh dear, the prince live somewhere far,
And on full moon nights comes,
Upon the wings on the angel of love,
Then he will feel your heart upon his”she said.

When she took her breath to say more,
The little girl skipping rope and left,
But the mom heard her little girl sing,
A tune that once had words of all the dreams she weaved.

The Willful Battle Against Fate.

Hello everyone. There is a weekendknocking on my door now. I want a weekend, a weekend filled withsleep. That’s what I want. I am a workaholic, I can work for 40 hoursstraight, with no food or sleep. Now I am tried… yeah, I am gettingold.

Not a lot going on inlife. I am planning for a trip to Kansas in the middle of the week.Dorothy here I come.

TheWillful Battle Against Fate.

Oh’ no, further and further the bottletoo rolled,
Nothing can intoxicate the mind more,
And stop it from knowing the loses,
O the rough edges of life grind himdown.

Through shallow short cuts he tried,
To bury the pain, lived in the depthsof mind,
Sometime wishes joined hands with thosepains,
And memories held them all in wedlock.

Parentless childhood and uncontrolledyouth,
O the good in life remained in himmummified,
As through the darkest paths throughlife he gained,
Intoxication no liquor or drugs cangive.

As for his life what season one cancompare,
Everyday went like a winter night,long,
Every night like a summer night, warm,
All that meant to blossom, died away atbudding.

Meaning he searched and found none,
Patterns he followed with futileeffort,
Always behind, always waited, alwaysfailed,
And success like mirages around himhaunted.

Still he gathered the will to live,
And for that he need no intoxication,
The belief in life in him so strongstayed,
And he fought his way against fate.

Though rhymes in life never existed,
Tough mind found rhyme with anotherdimension,
Then the mummified good shown him away,
A way to a beautiful soul with love forhim filled.

Though success remained as an elusiveprey,
His own success was in his battleagainst fate,
God indeed gave mankind the will tochoose,
God indeed made fate mankind’s enemynumber one.

The Smiling Lover.

I am in poetry overdose mood… I searched and I amsearching for a reason, for not being sad, angry and to get into agood mood. Damn I am lost within my own mind. There are good thingshappening around but the bad just out shows it all. That’s it

Totally different topic. Heath Ledger is dead. Ihaven’t turned on the T.V after the Packers loss. Even now I am notwatching T.V So I don’t know what happened to Heath Ledger. Mybrother told me there are speculations that he overdosed. Whatever,he was a good actor.

Now the poem.. I told many times here in this blog thatI have a habit of taking a thought and just talking to myself aboutit. This is just a thought I took from myself, in a way I just wrotewhat I spoke to myself.

Enjoy those who are enjoying these days. But I know mostof the people are not in a good mood to even update their blogs. Hopeyou all find a way to find peace of mind. I have found a way, donothing, just sit and sit and sit and keep on sitting. That’s it

TheSmiling Lover.

Where are all the good days gone?
Where are all the good people gone?
All I see around are mere mirages,
And they all show inverted images ofmine.

Where are the whistling winter winds?
Who all like lovers kissed my face,
Where are the nightly owls have gone?
Who all woke me up with their scarysongs.

Where are all the snow flakes gone?
Who all compete to sit on my nose,
Where are all howling foxes gone?
Who all fought for a meal in the wintercold.

Oh’ how forgetful I am as life pluckedme apart,
From all those who inspired me to beme,
Oh’ how wonderful were those days upnorth,
When time felt tired chasing me in mynaughty life.

Oh’ how blessed I feel, when a smileupon my face spreads,
Thinking about yester years and thedrama they wrote,
In which played I, a lovers role, sobadly,
But survived to think and smile at itall.

The Lost Ways

I don’t know when I was about to start something good, I can feel everything falling apart. I shut my eyes many times, I can only see dark, I smiled many times, I can only taste the tears… This year so far SUCKS big time. Honestly… this looks like a shitty year. Damn it

The Lost Ways

The valley left empty as the storms left,
Shattered houses and mangled fields,
And from between the piled up rubbles
Cries of orphaned pets, all around echoed.

When alone wandering through devastation,
Oh’ wish to find a tree or little wall to lean on,
Clutched heart from all sides, pulled every vein,
Oh all in vain all that stood shattered, in the storm.

When night spread her dark, malicious magic around,
Squeaking bugs joined the cries of the orphaned pets,
Noting kept quite, nothing seen, nothing touched,
A brittle, but cold wind tried to sing pathos of the land.

If the morning wakes up what will I tell her, he asked,
Mind fell asleep long before the body did,
The lost ways are a ways too, to somewhere,
But in starless night, every corner looks like a way out.

Then somewhere fell down in someones land,
The landlord’s silence was a gift of the violent storm,
Can he speak too.  he thought he should shout,
Then he know, his howls will fall into deaf ears,

Oh even when they were all alive they loved,
Those speechless creature more than him,
Now when those were howling in pain none cared,
Why should anyone alive should care for this unknown.
Once more upon his own failure he decided to be alone.

Sinead O’Connor – Sacrifice
This Sinead O’Connor’s performance of Elton John’s song Sacrifice. Most of the people who know me know this is my all time favorite song in any genre or language. Now Sinead O’Connor is one of my favorite female singers. Many people say this performance is really bad, but in my opinion this one of the best performance by her. She is at her best here during the Two Rooms Collection recording.
