196. Dastardly Act


Is there an armor
To protect the innocent ?
Is there a fortress
To shield the decent?
Is there a way
To stop the militants?
Shall Shaitaan never shed
Its dark intent ?
Can't we ever halt to stop
The crazy men seeking vengeance?
Will gruesome pain
In the name of religion end?
Will someone unveil the scriptures,
Where man is advised
To revenge and avenge?
The heart weeps and condemns
The dastardly act
Leaving mankind ashamed.

195.UNFATHOMABLE PAIN

BRUTAL ATTACK
TERROR REIGNS
INNOCENT KILLED
MILITANTS PREVAIL
BEHEADING TORCHING
BRUTALLY BUTCHERING
SILENCING LIFE
LEAVING UNFATHOMABLE PAIN.

BY BINITA JHA



194. DONATE



WHEN I AM DEAD
WASTE NO ENERGY
PERFORMING RITUALS
IN THE NAME OF TRADITION.
MY SOUL WILL WEEP
TO SEE THE POT BELLIED MEN
RELISHING DELICACIES
TO RELEASE MY SOUL
FROM THE WORLDLY BINDINGS.

IF YOU REALLY DO CARE,
DONATE MY ORGANS
TO THE POOREST OF THE POOR
ARRANGE FOR HIM TO LIVE.

MY BODY WILL BE LIFELESS,
YET MAY HAVE THE STRENGTH
TO GIVE SOMEONE
A NEW BEGINNING.

DO NOT STOP TO WORRY
ABOUT WHAT THE WORLD
HAS TO SAY OR SPEAK
FOR THEY WILL ANYWAY.

HASTEN
HELP.ME
FULFILL MY WISH
 RELEASE ME
FROM THE MUNDANE RITES.
OBLIGED I WILL REST
FOR ETERNITY
BLESSING YOU FOR
GIVING ME TRUE PEACE.

193. THE LIVING DEAD

WRETCHED HEART 
BREAKS INTO PIECES;
NOTHING GIVES SOLACE..
THE PAIN WITHIN 
THREATENS TO CHOKE;
EACH WORD 
WHIPS THE VERY EXISTENCE.;
THE WISH FOR EXIT,
WILL IT BE GRANTED
OR WILL IT STAY,
TO LASH AND FLOG
THE LIVING DEAD .

192. Sweet Ecstasy


Enfold me in the comforts
Of  your  understanding.

Draw me out
Of the subtle reality.

Share with me dreams
And harsh realities.

Make me blush.
Linger in me,
Just a little longer
For I love to shudder
In your arms
Drowning myself
In the sweet ecstasy.

191. Notes of Life

Perched on a bubble
Buried in trouble
Petulantly life
Scuttle and scurry   
Through upheavals  
Exhilarating inane.

Yet notes of life
Aren't baffled
By the impudent chicanery.

Immaculately it impugns
The meritocracy
Of this existence.
