WE ARE THE WORD - VERSION II

Words are all that we are

words are all that we have

and only words can give

all that we ever have

for we are the “Word”

and the word is God

as we are in the image of God

and the word is the Lord

not you, me or our sword

nothing and nobody is powerful

except the word

for the word is God

and we are the word

so let’s thank God

who made us the word

beholden of the Lord

WE ARE BUT SLAVES

We are but ordinary slaves

and posses the mentality

of simple stupid knaves.

We are slaves of rationality

as well as technology

without any humanity

We are slaves of our habits

and reproduce with proclivity

for we are worse than rabbits.

We are slaves of our senses

And continue to live selfishly

Without coming to our senses

We are slaves so beastly

Of Masters in temporality

We are slaves so measly

Of our own morality

We are slaves of many Gods

And their God men

Who are mere frauds

We are slaves of women

And lust for their organs

We are slaves of sex so common

And end up with abortions

We are slaves of food

We are slaves of water

We are slaves who are not so good

We are slaves of sons and daughters

We are slaves of our parents

We are slaves of our environment

We are slaves caught in many dragnets

We are slaves of the moment

We are slaves of communism

Or we are slaves of democracy

We are slaves of socialism

Or we are slaves of the aristocracy

We are slaves of communalism

Or we are slaves of theism

We are slave of all the isms

And yet we are in a deep chasm

Yes, we are slaves indeed

Who assume we are free

Slaves in thought, word and deed

Our own Masters we cannot be

our minds we need to remove to be freed.

EXISTENTIAL QUESTIONS

The question of whether God

who certainly is the best

did create Man or did Man create God

is like the question of which came first;

The Chicken not the Egg;

or the Egg not the Chicken?

This question an answer doth beg

when without answers we are forsaken.

Each of these needs the other

as much as the other needs each

understanding this is sure a bother

our minds for peace do beseech

So it really doesn’t matter which came first

All that matters is that we need both

And only then life becomes the best

ILLUSORY ILLUSIONISTS

There are many magicians

whom I call illusory illusionists

who consider themselves

great masters of illusions

but fail to forget that the divine

is the greatest Master of illusions

for such illusionists are given the illusion of life

within which they create their own illusions

and then experience the illusion of death

 in which state they no more have the illusion of wealth

and exist without their own illusion of life or health

where they cannot perform such illusory illusions.

Such are these stupid illusory illusionists

who are indeed masters of their own delusions

WE ARE WHAT WE ARE

People nowadays are ready to do anything and everything for money; values and value systems have lost their value and have become meaningless and redundant. Who is to blame? We are…

What we are

is because

of what we are

and what we aren't

is also because

we are what we are;

ultimately we are

our own sorrow,

our own problems,

our own morrow,

our own obstacles

and our own challenges

as well as our own joy,

our own achievements

and our own blessings....

for we surely are

what we are;

we are the divine within

and the divine without

and it is only the way

that we bring it out

which truly makes us

what we really are

for we are only what we are

WE ARE WHAT WE ARE

BURDENED WITH BAGGAGE

I surely don’t agree

that we came like cabbage

into this world free

from karmic baggage

with nothing in our hands

and will one day leave

with nothing in our hands;

We must constantly remember

that we came into this world

with the baggage of forever

all our dirty linen we unfurled

the linen of good and bad karma

we came to wash our dirty linen

and must ensure for sure

that we turn them silken

soft and so pure

to leave this blessed earth

with more good karma

than the burden of birth

caused by our own bad karma.

FREE WIND

The wind doth whisper

within me secrets of all it did see

for it travels everywhere

before I do it inhale and then within me

it whispers secrets manifold

before I exhale it on its journey

to be breathed in by many untold

It may sound corny

But isn’t it funny

that it is the same air

that travels everywhere

and enters other humans so fair

for it is a free spirit so aware

that it travels everywhere

THE PAIN OF CREATION

We always talk about

the joy of creation

and the happiness that

creators derive out of creation

without realizing

how constant

is their suffering

from which instant

they derived their creation

and the pain within

which torments leading to creation.

Now tell me friends

if God did create

out of joyous trends

or was the mate

a creation derived

from eternal pain?

Now tell me you deprived;

Did man create God

as a cause of his Joy

or was man a fraud

who did need a ploy

a scapegoat to blame

as the cause of all his suffering

and his unfathomed pain?

BLACK AND WHITE

Black is black

And white is white

And they have never

together blended right

for they can never

be mixed to form

that particular shade

which is called grey.

But it was man

who mixed them together

To rationalise and justify

his own selfish behavior

and therefore  insisted

that shades of grey

has forever existed

as he wanted it to exist

and therefore

deemed it fit
