POEM 254
BLIND JUSTICE
(The one who grievances first is right)
Even though...
They presented to court
the blood stained Knife
The tool of slaying
Leaving the man a corpse.
With all the evidence
There is no conviction
Justice for the dead denied
Shouts arise pleading...
Yet the judge remains deaf.

POEM 255
BRUTAL NEW AGE
The tree...
with shadow cool
Seems grown
for this purpose.
A place to retire
and rest a while
sheltered from
the scorching sun.
Where now you know sit.
Look you ...
Master of a new era...!
Destroyer of your city.
Left neither walls
nor roofs standing.
From this tree's shade
your resting spot...
Do you see the flames
the ruins you left behind?

POEM 256
THE ROSE
This rose
The memories
Sweetness...
Lovely the effects
bringing me joy.
The red rose
growing in my heart.
This beauty.
Many its thorns.
able to prick and scar.
Yet still I cultivate
in farm of my heart.

POEM 257
THE OTHER MAN
Her eyes like needles
which pierce
With Critical smile
she is silent.
A man unlike to me
flashes in her eyes
When I look at her

POEM 258
THE DREAM
The dream...
I saved myself
driven by fear
out running
the brutal dogs.
As I looked back...
Things became strange
the dogs became human
Staring in anger
Snarling...
These dogs ...
who came to my dreams
wore the faces of mankind
Ready to inflict pain.

POEM 259
HOPING.. GOOD DAYS
Amazing...isn't it?
The poor trapped
Empty handed
As centuries pass.
They work the soil
Growing crops
Never tiring
Heads in submission
Living in hope
The time will come
For their success
Never quitting.
The dusty wind
Moves in circles
Like fairy's rings
that grows in Spring.
Circles of nature
Always returning
the promise of hope
Good days to come.

POEM 260
SUPERSTITIOUS CONFOUNDED
Sometimes
It happens...
Like that
I see my face
Grown up
on the body of some else
but yet...
ask myself surprisingly
Is it really me ....
This human being
Superstitious confounded
Barks out at me
like a dog.

POEM 261
JUSTICE
It is a fact
There are no shortages
No lack of anything
For the advantaged.
But for the poor
They wanting ...
Bellies empty.
Oh Almighty God...!
Where is the justice?

POEM 262
GODDESS OF MY LOVE
You...
Face so different
written upon my heart
This thirst of feelings ...
catching in my throat
My hopes you kill.
Still demands
Eternal this love
My head I submit...
Before you I come
Again and again
Accepting you as my Goddess.

POEM 263
AGE COUNTS
Girls still look at me
and though they smile...
Their eyes speak
A multitude of words.
Once offering me hearts
No longer I see
My age revealed
by the creases of time
I feel my insides
breaking into pieces.
The hope of the dream...
Vanishes in a cold sigh
