Speaking Hiroshima And Nagasaki
A stray matter,
ruined two lives.
A suicide-bomber,
blew the Sunni tribes.
A night when,
plans were being finalised.
Two innocents loked over the border,
and they saw the thunder
wnich was hurling
hurrying at its pace-
and suddenly the air was the nightmare.
But,
as the night grew
up, up and above;
a star died halfway in the galaxy
and it merged into the source.
Viewed the time,
was the new morning-
but there was darkness;
there was mourning,
there was disgust,
there was the captive being beheaded.
Listened off Palestine,
listened off Israel;
listened off the Gulf.
Searched the Alps of devotion-
I only found Tethes and the 'wonder stone.'
The path we desire,
is it the new beginning?
is it the 'everentiation? '
is it the 'shift of amoeboid? '
Have we the associations
and the grand ones.
Have we the third generation-
and the sustainable plans.
Some shrines are blown,
some mosques are withered.
Some temples meet the ruins;
Churches speak the same.
Apes,
teach us the lesson-
Neanderthals, Ramapithecus and all;
make us the Homo sapiens.

The Murder
Eyebrows,
moving swiftly
with the crushed heart.
When gently confessed;
Murderer the nearby weapon,
Blood spilled all over.
Trigger that at hallucinating temple
was it all
That assume everyone.
-since-
everyone assumed that.
All it was,
temple hallucinating at that trigger-
all over spilled blood.
Weapon nearby the murderer;
Confessed gently when-
heart crushed with,
swiftly moving
eyebrows.

The Shining Village
A lake in the middle,
with inhabitants hundred.
A way through the forests-
with land mines all around.
Some day people realize,
one of their kins is missing.
They trace the footprints of the child-
and find portions of his clothing.
The land mine,
he stepped on.
Blew him apart-
and separated his body.
Catherine and Hameed,
studied at a same school.
But they had a dispute over a tiny matter-
and that was enough for young minds to separate.
Catherine left school,
and Hameed went to the forests.
That was when-
he stepped on that terrible thing.
His leg was there,
and rest was grinded.
His life has gone-
and the village hasn't yet shone.

Traces Of Perpetuation
Yesterday in the dreams,
I saw a tree weeping at its best.
Asked the cause of screams-
The axe did all the rest.
Its xylem and phloem were splitting,
it was shivering with cold.
But the being was going on cutting-
Thinking for the family and the gold.
The branches were involuntary,
the leaves just kissing the earth.
The tree had marked the centenary,
and now it needed a new birth.
All at once,
the gloomy clouds came in the sky.
The chopper firm at its stance-
ignored the messenger's spy.
The place did warm,
with the tree's demise.
Human did nothing but harm-
to the nature's oxygenating device.
And along all these,
the glaciers have learnt to melt.
Struggle for the environmental peace-
and approach for conservation, everybody has felt.
Don't we see the floods?
Don't we see the landslides?
Don't we see the temperature rise?
Don't we see the fate of the future?
And if we desire sustainability,
if we want the ocean to remain calm.
The thing we have to seek is-
perpetuation in every palm.
