The Sin Of The Land

Loathing is a sin in the land,
Some carry weights and hands
To lift them, lifting is action.
Slavery may succumb to disorder,
A right to life that dies.
Loathe those in agony and corruption,
Tyranny shall collapse from heat
Burning from the stars, the slavery.
May banging happen in empty air,
To relieve the silence of eternity.
Slaves are eternally in disagreement,
From air we all breathe and lift weights.

Ch 08 On Rules For Conduct In Life - Maxim 35

Be not astonished when a wise man ceases to speak in company of vile persons, since the melody of a harp cannot overcome the noise of a drum and the perfume of ambergris must succumb to the stench of rotten garlic.

A blatant ignoramus proudly lifted his neck
Because he had overcome a scholar by his impudence.
Knowest thou not that the Hejazi musical tune
Succumbs to the roar of the drum of war?

Give Me a Nod

Attack you do,
With passion that asserts!
That is my dessert...
That begins my flirting!

Ignore with teases beginning to please.
I know when I am baited...
If it's good I'll succumb with ease!

You lick your lips as if I am looking.
Of course I am...
Your glimpses come,
And arrive at my stares.

Just give me a nod!
You can tell from where you are,
I'm throbbing and ready to go,
As deep and far as you want to take this

When We Grow Old

when we grow old
when our hands begin to lose control
to everything that we want to hold
there is one part that refuses to go with the crowd

it does not flow into weakness
it is not silenced by indifference
it does not succumb to hopelessness

then all of them complain
about its hardheadedness
its irresponsibility

when i grow old and when i begin to forget
it listen to its song
it centers me to life

i lose myself
it mourns

Valour and Power

A man of virtue was Yudhirsta.
A man of strength was Bhima.
A man of volour was Arjuna.
A man of looks was Nakula.
A man of wisdom was Sahadeva.

Arjuna won Draupati.
Bhima held Droupati.
Women admire the valour; [Arjuna]
Women succumb to the power.[Bhima]
Women enjoy the beauty. [Nakula]
Women revere the wisdom [Sahadeva].
Women value the virtue.[Yudhirsta]

Derailed By Train

I never buy, whats bought -
The copper corpse which brassed steel -
Derailed by train -
Succumb to what you weaved -
One or two sleeves -
The have to, read what you need -
I am the worst kind of perfect - What i project into the riddles -
I cannot find -
Which is hidden in my hide -
The fountain by sound -
Was found in the valley of Sad But Never Happy -
So I squared my round -
Only the tree to a dog -
Presents a bark

Winds Of Freedom

Blowing through soft winds I breathe
Desire for freedom in the air,
Passionate whispers of the needs
For acceptance, for hope and care.

How to this dream can we succumb,
Within a world too full of hate,
Where greed and power overcome
And fears and prejudice berate?

But tight to my faith I do hold.
Whispers will grow to voices bold.
The winds will grow to one strong gale.
Freedom and peace can now prevail.

We know that the Jews were prohibited from investigating the future. The Torah and the prayers instruct them in remembrance, however. This stripped the future of its magic, to which all those succumb who turn to the soothsayers for enlightenment. This did not imply, however, that for the Jews the future turned into homogeneous empty time. For every second of time was the strait gate through which the Messiah might enter.

Comfort

If you struggle to fare,
Or find things hard to bear,
Then take comfort in me,
Do not suffer solely,
Below a glistening sun,
Do not ever be glum,
Take comfort in someone,
Don't ever be lonely,
You may think no one cares,
But there's someone somewhere,
There is comfort found there,
So don't suffer despair,
There's light though you see none,
To your fears don't succumb,
Your battle can be won,
With help from a loved one.

If Death Does Not Come

If death does not come from Terror
We may succumb eventually from fear
Or from stress due to stupid human error
(Whatever did we do to deserve this?)

All the intelligence is hilariously absent
Maxwell Smart could have done quite well!
Millions of scanners now present
Even your hemorrhoids they can tell.

If death does not come from Terror
Imagination can kill faster than man
The mind can produce visual horrors
In the meantime: 'Yes we scan! '
