Flame Of Anger
in the darkness light appears
from the flame that burns inside
the flame burns brighter and stronger then ever
the flame of vengeance and destruction
it burns my soul to the core
how long will i be able to contain it
how much more can i take
before i loose myself in the flame

Evil is made good
A sac of rice in exchange
For every sac of paddy
That a king collected as tax
From his subjects for long.
At death bed he wished his son
To make him good in their eyes.
‘A sac of rice for a sac of husks’
The son ordered. The father was hailed.
Eviler makes evil good

Not a complaint or a request but a pulsation!
You took Paddy
And then his beloved wife
Who knows go there tomorrow?
But the handsome Warmongers
Do acrobats in the serene sky
And dropp their toy cluster bombs
To the innocent Human crops!
*It's a funny thing about life; if you refuse to accept anything but the best, you very often get it.
-Somerset Maugham

Tatooed Drums
Crushed silence dissolving into the milestone of the whole truth
Recognition of emarald paddy fields
River is river
Roads are roads
The path to the path to the path to the path
No shortcut to enlightened
reason
iIlogical contexts creation of meanings
Blue fields in the photographic image of the play-world

A Passing Thought
The train
Moved,
And
In no time
We
Were out
In the countryside.
Pink clouds
Dotted the evening sky.
Far out,
Paddy fields.
Smoke
Billowing out
Of the chimneys.
Dim lights
In the cottages
Of sparsely populated
Villages.

Being Used
So many thoughts
so hard to control
i guess wondering
has really taken it's toll
killing myself slowly
with these thoughts unsure
I've lost everything i am
no longer am i pure
i am no longer strong, i am weak
death haunts me quietly
into my thoughts he peaks
pissed off and lonely
sad and confused
i guess it all was true
when they said i was being used

My Heart
love me i dare you to try
i will somehow make you cry
love me with my heart of ice
a broken soul will be the price
i reached out for your hand
and asked you help me to stand
break down this wall i created
all my life for you i waited
my soul is filled with pain
i want... no more rain
if u succeed in melting the ice
my eternal love will be your price

For My Lovely
even if were miles apart
u have taken my heart
this might be wrong
my feelings for u are strong
sometimes i don't know what to say
it's like u take my voice away
whether im sad or blue
i know i feel good when i talk to you
after all thats said and done
know you are my number one
let me take your hand
and with a soft voice i ask
do u want to be...
my girlfriend

Lost In Darkness
light can't been seen
not even from the sun
the light i could see disappeared
not a glimmer of it remains
while i'm drifting away in the dark
i try to find that light again
but something is dragging me away
i try to resist but it's futile
darkness is all there's left
feelings and emotions become numb
senses of the surrounding dies off
en darkness surrounds me completely

The blind flower-seller
With the cane basket
and the white cane
She comes to the Sunday market
Sitting on the small bench
She sells different colors of flowers
Though she cannot see
By each fragrance of them
She knows the name and the pedigree too?
And I sniff a rare fragrance while passing
that comes from her hidden little-heart flower?
to my deceased poet friend Paddy Martin!
