Mystery of life and death
I went to the kingdom of fundamental particles
my body being so coarse I sent my mind in
I found they have rhythm of life.
They move in orderly fashion
change their positions under specific conditions
even take birth and die when situation arrives
during nuclear fission and fusion reactions.
In such a gigantic universe what is happening
how it is happening, why it is happening
are matters beyond the reach of tiny human
whatever we invent is through our lens
it is a relative conception we arrive at
no absolute knowledge is attainable
because our mind is too small to hold it.
Innumerous galaxies, stars, planets
are forming and disappearing
it is their birth and death like ours
by birth they take a form
by death they get dissolved in the universe
get salvation to end the cycle
human too can get salvation by extinction.
Establish the new priority of life
Our all activities are centered to avoid death
we go to school, college, university
to get educated so that we get job
and learn to fight all adversaries
we earn money to eat food
so that we can survive
defeating hunger
can consult doctor when ill
take medicines to conquer diseases.
Religions and their prophets and leaders
make our life complex by dos and don’ts
they brain wash us for a better life
with full of luxuries and enjoyments
even they lure us to reach heaven
where everything is good
unhindered sex with beautiful girls
no grief only pleasure
if one fights for own religion and kills others.
Here also we need to fight against death
there are habitual perpetrators of violence
their job is to do harms to people
belonged to opponent peace loving religions
they burn national and other people’s properties
kill innocent people by terrorism and hooliganism
declare themselves brave and other cowards
they do not have positive thinking to build nation
only grabbing others’ wealth by hook or crook.
Time is rife to change our central thought
it is wrong to live only to avoid death
we are here as humans not by our will
it has been imposed upon us by the Supreme Power
our living in this horrible world of sufferings
gives the Creator pleasure at the cost of our pain
we will have to rise against it
our life should center now around the thought that
we must go for the extinction at the earliest.
Fast changing world
Modern day systems have a bad habit
it changes its colors like lizard
cell phones started with 2G
it ran for a race to 3G, 4G, 5G
a poor fellow with lot of efforts
buys a smart phone with 3G SIM card
before even he/she can learn
how to use different features in it
the greedy government and industrialists
complement each other for higher speed
in internet and fill their coffers as well.
About three to four decades ago
hardly any father used to rape daughter
now it has spread like virus
women were known to be chaste
infidelity was more known in men
now women kill husbands for paramour
guys are becoming impotent in young age
teenagers are dying in heart attacks
that used to be a disease of old people earlier.
Hey humans why are you blindfolded
control your speed and directions
else face premature death in accident.
Unsung hero
It so happens that
beautiful birds fly
in the deep forest
where no eyes reach
it so happens that
chirps of them
are like sweet songs
do not ring in ears
it so happens that
they knit nests
far above the ground
no match is there
they come in this earth
do not hanker after fame
live their peaceful life
disappear unsung
I am their follower
did many wonders
my work on science
my poems are eternal.
Beloved who expired
There were two bodies
lying in the morgue
last night one died
still fresh enough
face on the floor
another decomposed
seeing all disappeared
to search men of mortuary,
his dear one died
went alone to lift body
no relatives came forward
with the help of one person
took the body to stretcher
then to a cot on a truck,
everybody was fleeing
to catch a car from there
surprised, he called one
to sit in the lorry
beside the driver
since he was the son-in-law
of the expired person
he himself was touching
the body all the while
on the vehicle since
at this time, it is said
something wrong can happen
to the departed soul.
Greif and heartlessness
pounded him simultaneously.
