That Moment At the lowest depth,Neither light nor words,Silent and still,Proud of life’s stability.I neither knew who I was,Nor did I want to know who I was.Until one day, a wondrous nudge,A very tiny tremor,Yet large enough,Severed me from that colossal depth.

Savvy Guilt It is not the master craftsman, But the deluded hypocrites, Who instill guilt over desire To control the social fools. Don’t be ashamedOf universal needs,Derived from nature. Infinite wisdomMakes you desireWhat you see.Without them,We are single cogs,Useless, unperturbed. Sanctification of hermits: That is how we are hooked Into the cobweb of antiquity. It…
A Man or a Punchbag? The sole role of the shock absorber is to withstand the impact to ensure a smooth, comfortable ride for everyone else.

Yet, a droplet, indistinguishable from all other droplets, Came out of my eyes and asked me: Do you know why I can make things wet? I looked at…
