Seek the consequence

A sin is a sin that cannot be undone.

The pain caused by it is undone either.

No amount of measures can compensate it.

Wrong to one and good in return cannot.

Wrong to one and good to many cannot.

Wrong to one and then repentance cannot.

Sinning and praying gives you no escapes.

Sinning and serving gives you no clearance

A glass broken is broken; accept the loss.

A sin done is done; seek the consequence.

29.06.2011

A fantasy is she.

An actress is a fantasy

To many men in ecstasy.

She herself is a reality

To an actor in intimacy.

28.06.2011

Silencing conscience

To justify your action

Is to silence your conscience.

To silence conscience is

To have electricity without fuse.

28.06.2011

A game played

It is a pleasure to have women;

Shameless, I go after women.

It is a pleasure to please kids.

Shameless, I beg or grab money.

Jealousy is in my root.

Guiltless, I wait for one’s down fall.

Revenge is in my tip.

Guiltless, I wait for a chance.

Vice is the inner part of life.

To uncover is a game played.

28.06.2011

A rat cannot defy a cat.

A king can punish; who will punish him?

His conscience perhaps, if kept intact.

The God can punish; but is not questioned.

A rat cannot question a cat for its act.

27.06.2011

Eightieth is doubtful.

My seventieth birth day was unlike others.

I cut the cake, grand children gave presents.

Children followed suit. New faces greeted.

It made me feel I may not reach eighty.

27.06.2011

To love and flirt concurrently

Can a woman in love with one

Flirt with another concurrently?

Can a man in love with one

Flirt with another simultaneously?

It does happen in both genders

As flirt is different from love.

Love is the identity driven.

Flirt is the corporal pull driven.

27.06.2011

Over use

A quote goes cheap if over used.

A queen goes cheap if often shown.

A guest goes cheap if overstaying.

Otherwise also they’ll expire stale

26.06.2011

Love of wife and son for me

I must not smoke and must go for walking.

My wife and son insist, not out of love,

But from her fear of losing half a pension

And from his fear of my burdensome end.

26.06.2011 

Thieves look holy.

To fart is, of course, unpleasant.

To fart silently is to steal

The wind and escape as a thief.

A thief fights thieves to hide his thefts.

26.06.2011

Follies of morality

Marriage between man and woman,

A mandatory one, is scrapped.

Marriage between the same genders,

An unnatural one, is made to law.

26.06.2011

Concern is love

My chemistry and my son’s will clash.

My chemistry and my daughter’s won’t.

Yet I have greater concern for the son.

Concern and not amity speaks of love.

26.06.2011

Character of woman

A woman might have been endowed with

Beauty or intelligence to be proud of.

When she is not fortunate of either of them,

She can still be proud of character built.

26.06.2011

Confidence boosts

A dog barks when it is in its yard.

An elephant fights a crocodile on land.

A crocodile fights an elephant in sea.

A team plays well in its home ground.

One gathers strength in the uniform.

What they feel and with what spirit they act

Is confidence. Confidence is the faith

One has from the counted advantages.

26.06.2011

Physical imperfection

Physical imperfection, if any,

Will work against one’s confidence

And restrict one’s expression of talents.

Be he with those who have assimilated it.

25.06.2011

Mum and dad

The word ‘mum’ was the first born.

Much later came the word ‘dad’.

‘Dad’ is old and soon will die.

‘Mum’ will stay as a single mum.

25.06.2011

The unevenness

Questioning is easier than answering.

Giving is easier than getting back.

Losing is easier than winning.

In a deal unevenness is always there.

25.06.2011

Choice is your fate

At a fork in a path you’re confronted

With two ways as to which way you must go.

When you opted for this, that would seem better,

And when you opted that, this would seem better.

25.06.2011

Don’t use because you have.

If you hit one with a club

Simply because you have a club,

You’ll have driven him to seek

A rod with which to hit you.

25.06.2011

Action is better.

To be born, live and die,

To marry and go widowed,

And to marry and go divorced

Are still better than inaction.

25.06.2011

Eavesdrops

Almost all will eavesdrop from curiosity.

Most men eavesdrop from trust deficit.

Some eavesdrop from insecurity.

The eavesdrop other than incidental, is bad.

25.06.2011

Versatile love

She was my love when I was twenty.

Her daughter was my muse in my forty

And the granddaughter repeats at my seventy.

Man at any age loves woman of any age.

24.06.2011

The cause is only inferred.

I took pills and syrup for my cough.

In addition I took pepper and turmeric.

Which are the causes of the cure

And what are their shares are a mystery.

24.06.2011

Surgery and divorce

A heart surgery cures one’s heart.

A divorce cures the hearts of the both.

One gives health and the other, relief.

View the divorce as you view the surgery.

24.06.2011

Shame more than fine forbids.

I shall park my car

In the non parking zone

And get fined rather than

Parking in someone’s place

And get insulted by him.

24.06.2011

The couple’s quarrel

The child cries when its mother beats her.

It weeps when its father beats her mother.

If the father has sense to understand

He will find the alternative for his anger.

23.06.2011

Man’s dominance

To save elephants is to kill vegetation.

To save tigers is to kill cows and deer.

Nature takes its course and balances its act.

Drop your dominance and free the nature.

23.06.2011

One tumbles down

Power blinds, money blinds

And sex blinds. One tumbles down.

Hunger blinds; so does revenge.

Jealousy blinds. One tumbles down..

23.06.2011

The cleaning agents

Anger or sorrow is the outcome

When one’s interest is affected.

Anger barks out and sorrow sheds tears.

Barks and tears are cleaning agents.

23.06.2011

Animal protection law

Rats eat the grains; I can kill them.

Elephants invade the field; can I kill them?

I can kill hen for food but not a peahen.

Animal protection law is at flaw.

23.06.2011

The Democracy

Spending in elections

Is like sowing in the field.

Harvests can be manifold.

Corruption eats democracy.

22.06.2011

She owns her child.

To its mother, a child is not cheap

Because it was born of a lowly husband,

Or from a secret or illicit affair.

She sees it as wholly hers, not as his.

22.06.2011

To be known by death

When a great man dies

It’s the day he is born.

His birth was silent.

Be one known for death.

21.06.2011

Between mother and son

Some kind of animosity thrives

Between the mother and her son,

That cancels sexual attraction

Between them as opposite genders.

19.06.2011

When?

Nothing succeeds like success.

Nothing follows like failure.

Steep rise will lead to steep fall.

Steep fall too will revive. When?

19.06.2011

Both are equal

The role of the school teachers and

The role of the college professors

Were same as removing ignorance.

Both had been equal in my reverence.

19.06.2011

The cause is mine.

My son did higher studies; I beamed.

My son got a richer bride; I beamed.

Low as I was, he avoided me.

As an estranged father I stay back.

18.06.2011 

Life is a gambling.

Up, up and up;

Down, down and down;

Up, down and up;

Down, up and down.

One of them is the fate

Of the one in gambling.

Life is a gambling.

17.06.2011

Infants give no clue.

Banyan comes from a tiny seed.

Coconut comes from a large seed.

Great men need not be from the kids

Born to great or  rich parents.

16.06.2011

Be wise to solve.

Prayer is a sedative pill.

Sympathy is a pain killer.

They will not cure your disease.

Instead, resort to other sources.

16.06.2011

The bliss and the stress

What to do with the time?

This will put you in a state of bliss.

Where will find the time?

This will put you in a state stress.

15.06.2011

We lose for credit.

We exert our energy to do things

Against our interests and spirits

Just to show to the world our caliber,

That feeds our ego without fiscal gains.

16.06.2011

The king and the God

Now I was punished for no crime.

Once I was spared for my crime.

The king has erred in both the case.

But the God will not err like that.

15.06.2011

Public meeting is boring.

In a heterogeneous audience

To some it is too simple and

To some it is too hard to grasp

What is said, so both are bored.

15.06.2011

The marriage is sacred.

‘Give me your hand that I may walk

In the light of faith you invest in me.’

Shows the groom to the bride by his look.

‘Take my hand that I may walk

In the path of love you install in me.’

Nods the bride to the groom in silence.

15.06.2011

The request is an order.

A request from an authority

Is an order in the making.

To ignore it is to lose one’s face.

Comply with it to save the skin.

15.06.2011

You are my love.

I pity you as long as

You do not outgrow me.

I love you as long as

You do not compete with me.

13.06.2011

New fashion hassles me.

Fashion is a confidence booster

But poses discomfort in adoption.

Yet people go after the adoption

At the cost of comforts to feel up.

13.06.2011

Barking and pleasing

Does the dog bark from fear or anger?

Does the one please from fear or love?

Fear to fail is the cause of anger.

Fear to lose is the cause of love.

13.06.2011

Resemblance is still there.

Is it she who I think it is?

Had she not confirmed about it

I could not have assured myself.

I saw her four decades ago.

12.06.2011

Change of partner

To go to bed and wake up seeing

The same face will kill man’s appetite

For sex at his forties but a stranger

Can revive it even in his old age.

12.06.2011

The adult is adept.

A child does not know to express what it knows

And the adult is adept to elaborate

What he does not know; he wrote religions,

History, astrology and philosophy.

10.06.2011

Friendship and enmity

Events may turn friends into enemies

And enemies into friends in due course.

The sweetest would be the bitterest and

The bitterest, the sweetest in relations.

10.06.2011

Don’t do it.

No beneficiary will remember you

After death or your death anniversary.

It is your children who would do if at all.

Don’t do anything at the cost of your children.

10.06.2011

Falling stars

Men are known as great for their works.

Their names are retained, works forgot.

Or works stay and names are forgot.

Later both are gone out of thought.

10.06.2011

Two balances to weigh

Why must India be the colony of England?

The leader asked and Indians thundered.

Why must some in India be untouchable?

The leader asked and Indians kept quiet.

09.06.2011

The pleasure spot

Pleasure is given up for pride

And pride is given up for pleasure.

As feeding the senses or the ego

Trickles the pleasure spot in the brain.

09.06.2011

M.F. Husain is no more.

Maqbool Fida Husain, 95, is no more.

A controversial Indian painter is no more.

He, a Muslim, pictured Hindu Gods in nude

And had to live in exile and die abroad.

M.F. Husain was a bare footed, fair,

Tall, handsome gentleman with a beard.

He is to painting as to poetry

Is Kamala Das, sexual in contents.

His infatuation with Madhuri Dixit,

A captivating actress, half his age,

Is a well known and well spread gossip and

He made a film to have her act in it.

He had thick friendship with Kamna Prasad,

A writer, who broke it, for his indifference.

His family and six children loved him,

His philandering nature notwithstanding.

M.F. Husain’s artful pinching onslaught

On the Hindus’ sentiments made him flee.

He died in London and was buried unsung.

If I were he, you’d call me a womanizer.

09.06.2011

The emotional value

Rare things in auction fetch huge values.

Be it a queen’s blouse or the ball of the final.

What does it show other than mere madness?

Emotion defies the physical value.

09.06.2011

I take after mother.

My mother tongue is of my mother.

When my father differs from mother

In cast, clan, race, regions and religions,

I must proudly belong to my mother.

09.06.2011

Spend life and wealth.

It is not certain if I go to heaven.

Can I invest if gain is not certain?

I don’t want to die; I don’t want to invest.

Let me spend and enjoy my life and wealth.

08.06.2011

The basement is fear.

Love is fear; so is anger.

Fear to lose that you love

And fear to get that you hate

Manifest as love and anger.

Tears are outlet of anger.

Joys are outlet of love.

The basement is fear.

08.06.2011

Mercy is absent.

Poachers, butchers and choppers

Have no mercy in their acts.

God is a terminator.

No mercy from His duty.

07.06.2011

Minus is more powerful.

Minus one added with plus one

Cancels the plus one.

Minus one multiplied by plus one

Gives the minus one.

Bad words and deeds like minus

Kill good words and deeds.

06.06.2011

Immediate relief

As an event to the visitors

And a burden to the hosts,

A funeral is conducted.

The next day is a relief to all.

06.06.2011

Fate takes you.

You cannot stop your birth.

You cannot change your genes.

You have to live till death.

In between what occur are fates.

06.06.2011

Inborn deaths.

Viable seeds, not sown, will die.

Skills without opportunities,

Love without communication

And hope without luck will die.

05.06.2011 

They are still fresh.

A piece of news though old

Is still fresh to the new reader.

A woman, though felt stale,

Is still fresh to the new lover.

05.06.2011

Love and hate of fear

I love the God for I fear Him.

The fear is in losing His love.

I hate Satan for I fear him.

The fear is in approaching him.

05.06.2011

A worthwhile wife

He is no longer in love with his wife.

She is cute and smart in appearance.

She is good and high in profession.

She gives him a pride to which he clings.

05.06.2011

A thorn by a thorn

Lord Krishna did many dishonest things

To combat dishonest Dhriyotana

As the cops would commit the over-speed

To seize the over-speeding vehicles.

04.06.2011

[The Mahabharata, the epic, in which Krishan did tricks to combat  Dhriyotana]

04.06.2011

Visual prostitution is welcome

A woman of good looking cannot escape

Visual prostitution from men around.

The one who does the role of a temptress

Is a volunteer for visual prostitution.

04.06.2011

Wives are secure.

All women are good to sleep with

But not as good as wife to live with.

Men will not abandon their wives

Even if they go after other women.

04.06.2011

Death is a surprise.

Death is a piece of news

Shocking only the offspring.

To the rest it’s a surprise.

They visit from obligation

04.06.2011

Impatience

Is it impatience or affluence

To have as many cell phones,

As many lap taps,

As many music systems,

As many televisions,

As many vehicles,

And as many bedrooms

As there are members

In a given family?

04.06.2011

The mistress

Mistresses save men from bad marriages.

Mistresses break marriages that are smooth.

However, the word mistress still suggests

A sleazy liaison devoid of respect.

To have mistress stems from carnal desire.

A triumph or extravaganza can induce.

Desire to conquer a new territory

That lets them sow wild oats there, rules in men.

Mistress is branded as other woman

And is hated by all other women,

However worth she is or however

Beneficial her connection is.

However, the society gives lineage

To the mistress who is popular or

Whose custodian is all powerful,

And hails their relationship, dumping the wives.

Affluent mistresses aren’t branded

As a man stealer or a home wrecker.

Rather, their power of being a temptress

Gathers more charm and wipe out wives’ presence.

03.06.2011

Loyalty and honesty

A wife is overlooked by her husband

For her total loyalty towards him.

A maid is overlooked by her lady

For her total honesty towards her.

03.06.2011

Defense mechanism

Pain has been installed.

Fear has been installed.

So have been anger and tear.

Keep them for your defense.

03.06.2011

The eluding justice

Natural justice is a long rope.

Innocents framed are spared.

Culprits booked are let out.

Harassment is the fruit both harvest.

03.06.2011

Mere praises

Propriety demands a visitor

To speak high of you and your place.

It is not the truth in revelation.

Don’t believe it and get elated.

02.06.2011

Simplicity of the rich

Being simple is fashionable

So she is simple.

Being jewel-less is fashionable

So she is jewel-less.

It is meant for the affluent ones.

They enhance themselves.

02.06.2011

Love sown far back

I’d looked at her with a colleague’s eyes

Before I left the place on a transfer.

Young and energetic she made her presence.

After a decade, I was back as the Head,

Gaining confidence for her attention.

My close look revealed how fresh she looked.

Yes, I must have liked her ere I went out.

The seed of this love must have been sown then.

02.06.2011

My life must be sweet.

I shall eat when I have hunger

And wait no man’s timing.

I shall sleep when I feel drowsy

And wait no man’s concern.

I shall laugh when I feel happy

And wait no one’s mood.

I shall anger when I’m wounded

And mind no one’s reaction.

You may call me a selfish beast

But by that my life can be sweet.

02.06.2011

Let me publish our love.

Poets wrote love poems,

            Which were love letters,

To their lofty queens;

            Save queens, all have read.

I wrote love letters

            In the form of poems

To my hefty queen;

            Save others, she’s read.

Love has no charm when

            The queen alone knows,

Also when others

            Know but not the queen.

She must know my love;

            My friends must know it.

Let me publish those

             That I wrote of her.

02.06.2011
