MIDNIGHT POETRY – ‘At leisure’

so you say you don’t care
the answer I hear a lot
what about your sanity
when I lose the plot

you say you don’t care
then ask me what’s the matter
when I throw a tantrum
plates and glass then shatter

when I ask you questions
you said it many times
our persistent beliefs
are like stingy crimes

then open your mind
into the world of caring
let’s live happily ever after
minds and hearts sharing

now wait no longer for the day
that brings us that much pleasure
give a damn or give a f-ck
just pick one at your leisure

MIDNIGHT POETRY – ‘Mirrors of Sand’

swirling tornado
nimble and savage
robust and bold

raw energy
fierce motion
tireless

out and in its core
mirrors of sand
liquid imagery

vanity on the move
fantasy of security
just a mirage

MIDNIGHT POETRY – ‘Be Who You Are’

mediocre life
from job to bed
selling your soul
raise the bar

load a camel
cross a desert
refuge in an oasis
who needs a car

fragrant spices
lamps and oils
awaiting at an
exotic bazaar

coins and trinkets
for a rainy day
collected and stored
in a glass jar

find your guru
under the bodhi tree
who do you think
you are

search on google
still not sure
sit in meditation
go beyond far

a chair or a bed
get inside your head
undergo an operation
without any scar

kundalini rising
if you have no clue
do your research
it’s rather bizarre

convincing as real
conscious energy
is what we are
god and a superstar

MIDNIGHT POETRY – ‘Destined’

your destiny in a blue ink
spelled out on a bathroom sink

stoics without feeling
undergo a distant healing

see through what we all do
living in a human zoo

locked in a mental cage
fast forward our age

in captivity restrained
to the news box chained

wash your hands we do the brain
backed by science to explain

seeds robbed out of plants
no bees so pollinate by ants

your fear is our long term gain
to feed you bugs as a main
