You might be wondering
What oddities rule the clamouring,
What grows in the mind?
What moves in the soul?
What stirs the body?
Impulses, conscience, goose bumps?
But, is it all of it?
Or all of none?
Ruling, scaling, scalding, moulding
millions by day and night’s beholding.
Strange is human behaviour.
Which responds to the odds
with even and even with odd.
This is perhaps the
power of oddities, glimmering
& dousing the mind blank.
Oddities arise, evenness rests.
The night falls as the day beckons.
Have you understood it all?
Or do you feign knowledge.
As you know quintessential whole.
Proud of the wise soul.
It’s funny often how the mind flies.

It springs from the third eye.
Bidding our entity a firm good bye.
There is no girl in this, nor a guy.
It’s all about an energy, soul and a lie.
Life is a lie, death is truth in my
truce. I like my pie
as of now, devoid of a sigh.
It’s going to be a tie
I know between life and dying highs.
One day as I sit alone and repeat aye-aye.
Death will be lovely but life is no less a fly.
As I fly high often leaving behind the deathly sly
death soaring, flying, dreaming joys to cry.

My equipments.
I found them at my home, long after I had to leave dancing.

This is the basic costume and the ghoongroos.๐ค

Geezzzz
It’s a sad one and an everyday experience.

When I lived quite a bit in life,
I knew I had learnt to feel.
Felt tears, felt smiles, anger,
revenge, falsities, brevity’s delight.
I felt many more things like I was
less a human and something else.
I felt a bird, a tree, an animal, a cat.
Often a mouse, a blade of grass and also a bat.
But, then I knew not why I felt so much.
I looked around but humans don’t feel such
things. I felt compassion and love, filial love once, oft late.
Then I asked myself how it served me?
When I began feeling humans around.
Oh! I write a bit to feel my surround.
Note for readers: I realised I must add it up
The genre remains same.
However covers different variants of human emotions

Love is shiny satin,
Love is soothingly calm,
Love is mutual blessing
Love is wedding ๐ฐ
Love is wildly restless,
Love is sweet and somber
Love is moving mountains
Love is loving you no less, yet more.
Love is like the meek Dorset
Love is a tight corset
Love is like a cheap trinket
Valuable more than the ravishing anklet.
Love is always you,
It began with a few,
When I was born with bones and sinews
Love is kids and crew.
But, then I got up from bed
I lost the sight I loved to behold
I wanted to sleep again,
Yet I could no more.
You live in me and within the sea
In my heart locked up for free.
I met you in the narrow sick room,
Lit by ๐ฅ fire and the feet ๐งน broom
Many walked around,
I too loitered and I found
you, but then I yield no profit
As I eat my head in my tuffet.
Had I been able to yield you
more than the heart and runes
You could come and take me
To you, but yet no more.
I was taught these lines by my mother
“Father, forgive them, for they do not know what they are doing”
“Contemplate” she said.
When you rise up every single day,
When you have the power to realise the million way,
When you live and know what He said
In these words each year at least once.
You know it was a way shown by him
to live life and look at it, in a certain way.
Death was not strong enough to let him not teach,
He taught till the end like it was a daily preach.
The words tell you and me a lot.
It tells us what we must do when fought
by people who see only one way to live
one way to thrive, one way to give.
Since they are scared to live many shades
fearing their kingdom on earth more than Heaven and Hades.
Have you ever been banned?
Dumped, thrown in a tight can, canned.
Have you ever been damned?
After being someone much famed.
Have you ever been gunned?
Dying alone eating skills you once honed.
Unable to work, since your wires are jammed.
Not knowing how to move, lamely tainted.
Well, once I was maimed,
In horror I stood alone unnamed.
All were crying foul and opined
grotesque stuffs against me untamed.
But, then I took it, not at all ashamed,
I looked ahead, I was waxed & waned.
I could do nothing, yet I stole profane
words of obliterated and obscene fame.
But, then fame was all a game,
I did very well as a dame,
In the game of madness and clever shame,
I fooled quite a few timid and the tamed.
I fooled many, got fooled by some insane
bits and canniness was handy yet mundane.
Now, I have what I needed, out of the sane
disguise of madness, cane crossed vanity in vain.

Joys are cherubic in this land.
Love is ephemeral when goes hand in hand.
I love the breeze and the sand.
Music in the breeze, I was once in a band.
Every time I remember you, your face, your eyes
The dye in my face dies, revealing sighs,
Moments matter and we live in some such whys,
Always, ever again, downtrodden bye byes.
I would love to meet you several times,
I would love to hold hands with you several more times,
Run my arms across your eye which shines
and feigns ignorance to my state within my spine.
I have loved you, God knows how many times,
I told you, an unfulfilled wish, cackling mimes,
I still wish I could just live with you through the grimes,
Place my head on your shoulders and rhyme.
But, the world stands as a foe, trying to see
What I do, when the spear digs deep in my tee,
The bones break or I breathe again during the wee,
It was always you and would never be me.
But then I tried yet I remain wherever I was within you,
I would slowly pull over making way to your view,
As I recede in the mountains of known and unknown hue,
I would still be happy to know you exist in the queue.
Yet, I can never reach you
The world is a wall few
fought and few could see and sew
Yet, I would be happy for you,
Slowly dying holding the dew
By the beautiful silent and calm view.
