An Eulogy to free thinking 2008-04-12 14:57:00 Thoughts are meant to be a boundless realm,Limitless,Without restrain,Think what you feel like thinking
,But your actions,you must refrain.I felt like running away,I thought of life alone,Dependency is an ironic curse,I fled not cause of my ties and light purse.I felt like rebelling,I wished to de-establish institution,To redefine living the way i would want it,Alas,i could not,i can't always have my way.I felt like inventing,Something substantial and meaningful,For fame,glory and for the best interests of all,Ideas aren't grown on trees,It's pointless waiting for the fall.I felt like reaching out across the ocean,Ever so vexing and wonderful,To cross that expanse,Tis a pity i'm afraid of that force,mindbogglingly powerful.I felt like killing myself,When all my hope had fled,Steered me away Read more: Eulogy
Victims of the system-Inspired by a true story... 2008-04-10 11:35:00 NOTE:This poem is dedicated to the authors of the blog,"Life must go on in Gaza and Sderot",a true,real life story
...i hope they find what they're looking for someday...do take a look at their blog to get a better insight into this poem... peer out of the window,But not the one in my house,I see chaos and confusion,And but sheer evil arouse.Across the street i see my friend stand,One who trusts me,One who knows me,The only one whom i can understand...Two souls in the vortex of suffering,We yearn for it all to end,But none can aid us,Wasted lives we have seen,just around the bend.Our bodies two,Our minds one,We but seek the end of this ordeal,To whom could we ever hopefully appeal?Struggling from within,We push against these barriers...We push against this system,But to no avail.We yearn fo Read more: Victims

No title 2008-04-08 15:27:00 Watch "The Departed" A movie that i'll probably never get tired of seeing again and again...
No title 2008-04-08 11:07:00 hmm...somehow i really wasn't satisfied with my fictitious works...maybe i should experiment a bit more with other genres...and at the same time get back to writing my somewhat "philosophical works",if one could call them that :P
The Bard's Song 2008-04-08 10:55:00 The Bard was to weave a song,A tale of woe prolonged;Grand,Glamorous,Epic it had to be,Of gargantuan proportion,and appealing to them all.Inspiration he needed,To envision his song,A story he needed,The sort where heroes vanquish the wrong.Search high and low did he,Through the jungles and the mountains,Search near and afar did he,Throughout the deserts and by the local fountains.Depressed he became,On finding nothing noteworthy at all,A recluse he became,Secretive,Self-Obsessed and one who shunned all.Aggressive,Filled with Rage,He ripped out all his works,Page by Page.This pent-up fury,Showed him the way,He began feeling foolish,For have engaged in such senseless play.The Inspiration he needed,Was his all along,The Inspiration he needed,Were his thoughts,his own story;He could finally pe

No title 2008-04-07 08:30:00 In case you're wondering,the ending of my previous poem was inspired from the movie-Lord of the Rings:The Fellowship of the Ring,from the scene in the mines of moria,where gimli finds balin's tomb.My apologies to anyone who's been offended in any way,i'm a big fan of LOTR myself,and i consider that poem in part to be a tribute to it.Cheers!
The Archer's Redemption-A fictitious poem on an archer who realizes his mistakes at the very end 2008-04-07 07:36:00 Emancipated by the light,Enlightened by my denial,and not my belief,I ceased putting faith in myself,And acknowledged my own grief.An archer i was,Reckless and bull-headed,And an archer i am,Cautious,Paranoid,still bull-headed.Garbed in Scarlet,Satin and Silk,On my back,my bow of the finest yew,My unsheathed sword,Cleaver of bone,tissue and sinew.But a draft i was,When i met my first foes,The saxons were contenders to remember,Victorius were we,We made their tribes dismember.An elite i became,Faced the hordes of visigoths i did,Bloody and Excited was my nature;I annihilated,I destroyed,I murdered,I burned everything down to the last pasture.The Royal Guardian i became,To The King;My Lord,My God,The Sanctity,Unity and Safeguard of the Empire my Karma,I then knew our fall was imminent.And i

autobiography of a prisoner of war-an empathic outlook on those whose lives were spent that way 2008-04-05 12:42:00 Masked by oblivion,Haunted by their faces,I see no hope,They're all over me,Closing all around me,Blotting me out,Smothering my thoughts,And attempting to break my spirit...I shall never give in!A maggot in their eyes,I acknowledge their ignorance,They are but puppets,They know not what they do,For that i forgive them...Inhumanity at its worst,Numbness pervades my senses,I'm but a ragdoll,Ragged,Limp,Worn and Pall.Listlessness rips me apart,I sometimes wonder-what keeps me together?It's but the will to survive,The hope of seeing a brighter tomorrow,The burning desire to live freely,And the eagerness to get out there.If you're reading this my friend,You're not by yourself out there,I'm there with you on the walkway,Through the nether we shall venture,I'm with you my comrade,I'm with you.

the concept of "panicking" 2008-04-05 08:17:00 Cast asunder,Are the tendrils of my thought,Things aren't as they seemed to be,And my rationality lay forgot.Thrown into a well of emotion,I sometimes feel that all is lost,Scrabbling,Scratching at the walls to get out,What must i do?Whose advice must be sought?The surge of adrenaline,Blood pumping in my veins,Physical aspects are but trivial,As compared to this panic clouding my head,That seemingly drives me insane.But hanging onto the edge,Has taught me a lot,Sharpened and seasoned,my mind has transcended,Panic-Friend and Foe alike,Has taught me a lot.
the fear of discovering 2008-04-04 12:53:00 A voyage,perpetually endless,My Life seems to be.Without the maps of fate,Nor the guidance of destiny,This voyage is my own,And I wish for it to be free.Dwelling on frivolities,My weakness it may seem,But what is life without living?Unanswerable questions,I shall pose to thee.The purpose of my Purpose?The Beginning of my End?I wish to know for myself.But restricted by the modus operandi ,I fear that i may not;This fear i must rid myself of,As it hinders my journey,This fear i must rid myself of,But never let it be forgot.
the void within me 2008-04-04 12:52:00 touching the void is like depression,one loses all human emotionno fear,no pride,nor love nor hate,it's a cocoon to which i can relate.lost as a person,my individuality withers away,being the follower isn't my kind of play...the shepherd's staff i do desire,but i ask myself-how in hell's name is it acquired?losses beyond my count,in life,and in death,in love and all the rest,calloused i have become,a shield,i have become,a void,i have become,and i know nought,be it happened,for the best,or as i fear,for the worst...

No title 2008-04-04 12:47:00 greetings!this is NOT my first attempt at blogging-all my past attempts were pretty much futile owing to the fact that i did'nt have topics i could really carry on for a long time.finally,poetry struck me as a good idea...and although i'm pretty much of an amateur,i'm sure i'll be able to carry it on this time.i'll be using poetry as a medium to express myself,my thoughts,and the goings-on of my relatively mundane life as abstractly as possible.here's to all of my readers.cheers!!

I found myself 2008-04-17 14:07:00 Feeling my way around,Perturbed by what's yet to be found,I did not see things going this way,Reluctant to forsake this quest,motivation i found on my bay.Blind,and in the dark,No difference did it make;Zest,and full of spark,My inner self did awake.I guided myself
,Through dusty corridors and dark places,I guided myself,Through tight corners and open spaces.Isolation nearly took my sanity,Almost claimed my mind it did;I talked myself out of it,As mad people who lost themselves did.I pushed against that wall,Where many had failed;I broke through that wall,The one which made the commoners quail.I have returned,I have come back,I have found myself,I have come back.

Senryu no.1 2008-04-27 13:55:00 Vexed by a common idiosyncrasy-The man questions his sycophantic friends-why?Feeling replused,He leaves them.
Serenity 2008-04-27 13:39:00 As i look upon the days gone by,I feel content,On a hammock i lie,No doubts,No worries in my mind.Everthing is clear,As i look upon the days gone by;I perceive everything,Nothing have i got to fear.Still and motionless,Physically,and Mentally;As i look upon the days gone by-I wonder how restless i used to be.Overwhelmed by this phenomena-Serenity
;I'm at peace,As i look upon the days gone by.

Atheism 2008-05-01 12:20:00 Atheism-The cultivation of a new perspective;Herein lies the true meaning of being independent.Evil it has been thought to be,the denial of God,I for one,am an Atheist,and i wish to be the master of my own fate,Sanctity is but a frivolity for me,My life is my own,only i control it,and nobody else.

The World-A Painting 2008-05-12 13:27:00 I sit beside the window,Staring at the drenched passers-by,The rain beats down heavily,The beautiful twilight showers livened the sky.The world looked like a painting,When i froze this moment in my mind,It's simplicity bore on me,Yet it's intensity rendered me blind.Unique-Neither cubism,nor impressionism,Still life,yet Real life,The emotions borne in this painting,At the same time-Grief,Happiness Read more: World
