Use your heart
Use your nails to scratch stale paint from walls; peel
off the rust from
indispensable commodities for survival,
Use your toes to poke someone frivolously in the ribs;
hoist intricate pieces
of cloth strewn on the floor,
Use your eyes to distinguish between the sacrosanct
and the devil; swirling
them rampantly in all directions to grasp the beauty
of the universe,
Use your fingers to scribble infinite lines of
literature; seize all those in
a vise like grip trying to massacre the law,
Use your legs to walk unrelentingly in the sun;
indiscriminately kick all
those pernicious impediments that confront your way,
Use your nose to breathe in gallons of fresh air;
detect fragrance and
obnoxious stench in the atmosphere with equality,
Use your arms to embrace all those afflicted with
pain; profusely loving the
ones you cherish,
Use your teeth to scrupulously masticate food;
evacuate lethal poison from
innocuous skin bitten by snake,
Use your brain to decipher baffling enigmas of life;
make planet earth a
better place to inhabit,
Use your lips to produce philanthropic smiles; spread
the ubiquitous message
of congenial friendship,
Use your affluence to lead a luxurious life; showering
the same on those
engulfed with tumultuous distress and pain,
Use your power to assassinate evil from its faintest
trace; fighting
incessantly for those oppressed in the society,
Use your ears to decode the minutest of sound;
inundate barren arenas of your
soul with melodious music,
Use your hair to cushion the impact of blows on your
scalp; letting it glisten
in the sunlight to impart warmth,
Use your blood to save someone on the threshold of
death; donating it in
bountiful amounts to those who require it the most,
Use your breath to tickle the grass blades; impregnate
the chilly ambience
with loads of passionate energy,
Use your bones to work tirelessly; executing them
meticulously to their
complete potential,
Use your voice to pacify the hot blooded; propagating
the message of peace
with tenacity,
Use your life to achieve and construct and discover;
procreating your progeny
to serve humanity with grace,
And use your heart to uninhibitedly love; inculcate
the spirit of perpetual
caring in the ones you ever encounter.

Uttering her name
WHEN I BATTERED my fists against the acerbic strips of glass;
infinite pores on my skin started to bleed profusely,
However when I did the same uttering her name;
the glass broke into an ocean of splinters; and my hand escaped
unhurt without a scratch.
When I indignantly stopped my nose from inhaling breath;
I let out marathon gasps after a few seconds,
However when I did the same uttering her name;
I could hold on much longer in my deplorable attempt.
When I inscribed a jugglery of design with a knife on my bare chest;
I felt capsized by tumultuous pain,
However when I attempted doing the same loudly chanting her name;
the anguish seemed to vanish into thin wisps of oblivion.
When I tried masticating metal with my fortress of teeth;
I swooned on the ground unconscious with a cluster of them
strewn beside my scalp,
However when I proceeded to do the same whispering her
mystical name;
the disdainful metal transited to silken honey.
When I tried to pummel the wall boisterously striking my
impetuous knuckles;
my fingers contracted a series of multiple fracture,
However when I did the same uttering her name;
the mighty wall broke and the bricks came tumbling down.
When I clambered the slippery slopes of the treacherous mountain;
I lost my footing midway; hurtling down towards the earth head on,
However when I tried doing the same singing her name;
the mountain summit looked like a piece of cake;
and I conquered the same in flash seconds of time.
When I tried consuming vials of poison; indispensable blood froze
abruptly in my veins;
my silhouette lay numb; with a deathly blue incorporating my body,
However when I drank the same uttering her name;
the venom converted itself into pure milk; and I bounced merrily
with resplendent euphoria.
When I leapt from unprecedented heights of the edifice;
I struck the earth with tremendous velocity; staying in
perpetual coma for days,
However when I committed the same feat uttering her name;
the ground I landed turned itself into spongy Dunlop; and I got
rejuvenated by the through stimulation.
When I walked on blazing fires barefoot;
the inner soles of my feet were rendered maim for the remainder
of my life,
However when I executed the same calling her name;
burning embers of the insidious fire felt like refrigerated ice;
tickling my demeanor extravagantly.
I had lived all my life in blissful contentment;
envisaging the beauty of her mesmerizing fragrance,
And eventually when the time came to depart for my heavenly abode;
I still didnt feel the pain; as I faintly recited her sacrosanct name

Utterly helpless
The cow; knew that the crow sitting on its back was a
treacherous nuisance; tickling it on umpteenth number
of places; when it actually wanted to blissfully rest,
But in the end she found herself completely helpless;
as no matter how hard she swished her tail; the bird
kept sitting; without incorrigibly budging even an
inch.
The Majestic edifice standing tall on the road; knew
that tremors occurring during the earthquake were
really unwanted,
But in the end it was helpless; as they inevitably
kept coming; and despite the most severest of its
resilience; weakened its foundations beyond safety
limits.
The gargantuan Oak tree; knew that the snakes crawling
on its formidable periphery; disrupted its serenity
and tranquil shade,
But in the end it was miserably helpless; for as the
years unveiled its crevices grew; and the hooded
monsters kept proliferating in dozens; although it
tried its best to kill them with its juice.
The ocean sprawled over a billion kilometers of
territory; knew that the choppy waves rising high;
broke its mystical spell and dreams,
But in the end it was completely helpless; as the
harder it tried the more the waters swirled; and a
tumultuous storm enveloped the entire surface; causing
the froth erupt towards the sky.
The granules of earth sprinkled all around; knew that
ploughing them would give them agony; massacre their
virginity beyond their capacity to redeem,
But in the end they found themselves disastrously
helpless; as man kept digging them with greed in his
eyes; till the time he struck pitchers of glittering
gold.
The hot cakes sizzling on the grills; knew that the
bees hovering around would painstakingly devour their
sweetness; render their sponginess with innumerable
number of holes,
But in the end they were helpless; as try as hard as
they could; the flies kept buzzing feasting on their
appetizing surface; till the time they satisfied their
gluttony.
The tongue suspended in chamber of the mouth; knew
that its demeanor would be reduced to rotten garbage;
the instant it blurted out abuses,
But in the end it was totally helpless; as even after
resolving in the name of Almighty lord; it exhaled out
the most abashing of bad words; when provoked by the
passing pedestrian.
The clusters of blossoming rose; knew that the
parasites clambering up their stalk would render them
fragile and lifeless,
But in the end they were wholesomely helpless; as the
more they tried to defend themselves with their sparse
thorns; the more the army of leeches enjoyed in
sucking them to emptiness.
And I as a poet; knew that working in office with a
monotonous bunch of morons; would vanquish all my
creativity; annihilate the passionate fantasy
revolving in my mind from its very roots,
But in the end; I found myself stumbling at every
instant of life and utterly helpless; as; If I wanted
to survive in this uncouth society; I had to
substitute fantasy with bulky checkbooks; chop my
dreams in entirety with the sword of commercialism; in
order to feed me and my wife with sumptuous food; rise
with her early at dawn; to confront a new tomorrow.

Victory shall forever be
Every maelstrom of unendingly truculent misery was
whiplashed upon you by the hedonistic devil; as he
salaciously marauded with his fingers soaked in
innocent blood,
God was irrefutably a beam of Omnipotent
righteousness; who not only blessed you with the
insurmountable power to conquer all evil; but created
infinite more of your kind; tirelessly every unfurling
minute of the night and day,
Giving supreme liberty to the devil to do whatever he
could; in whatever form he could; but in the end he
would be pathetically decimated to inconspicuous ash;
and victory shall forever be of unassailably majestic
truth
.
Every corpse of ghoulishly ungainly torture and
invidiousness was thrusted upon you by the parasitic
devil; as he indiscriminately trampled left; right and
center; with brutally lascivious hunger lingering in
his eyes,
God was irrefutably a Sun of unconquerably princely
hope; who not only blessed you with the unsurpassable
power to behead all evil; but created infinite more of
your kind; tirelessly every unfurling minute of the
night and day,
Giving uninhibited liberty to the devil to do whatever
he could; in whatever form he could; but in the end he
would be transformed into wisps of insipid
nothingness; and victory shall forever be of
invincibly glorious truth
.
Every spirit of cadaverous desperation and malice was
jinxed upon you by the savage devil; as he unsparingly
plodded forward to devour all organisms alive,
God was irrefutably the sky of fathomless beauty and
ingratiating enchantment; who not only blessed you
with the unflinching power to vanquish all evil; but
created infinite more of your kind; tirelessly every
unfurling minute of the night and day,
Giving unrestricted liberty to the devil to do
whatever he could; in whatever form he could; but in
the end he would crumble into disdainful oblivion; and
victory shall forever be of altruistically patriotic
truth
.
Every hell of preposterously raunchy sin and bawdiness
was thrashed upon you by the hideous devil; as he
dogmatically barked the tunes of abhorrently
despicable lies,
God was irrefutably a religion of symbiotically
Omnipresent mankind; who not only blessed you with the
peerless power to destroy all evil; but created
infinite more of your kind; tirelessly every unfurling
minute of the night and day,
Giving unparalleled liberty to the devil to do
whatever he could; in whatever form he could; but in
the end he would wholesomely reduce into graveyards of
parsimonious nothingness; and victory shall forever be
of pristinely unblemished truth
Every whirlwind of indescribably penalizing lechery
and sodomizing torment was slapped upon you by the
devastating devil; as he insanely burnt till the last
bone of his spine in the coffins of unrelenting
hatred,
God was irrefutably an Omniscient harbinger of
everlasting peace; who not only blessed you with
inimitable fortitude to blow away all evil; but
created infinite more of your kind; tirelessly every
unfurling minute of the night and day,
Giving undaunted liberty to the devil to do whatever
he could; in whatever form he could; but in the end he
would be charred to inconsequential ash; and victory
shall forever be of gloriously immortal truth
.
Every speck of acrimoniously cancerous and destructive
disease was stabbed upon you by the incarcerating
devil; as he intransigently sulked in the gallows of
coldbloodedly rotten death,
God was irrefutably the priceless cosmos of
perpetually royal fructification; who not only blessed
you with the unchallengeable prowess to massacre all
evil; but created infinite more of your kind;
tirelessly every unfurling minute of the night and
day,
Giving unstoppable liberty to the devil to do whatever
he could; in whatever form he could; but in the end he
would dissolve into the dustbins of extinction; and
victory shall forever be of blazingly impeccable
truth
Every trace of orphaned wailing and hapless loneliness
was tainted upon you by the ignominious devil; as he
exhaled scorpions of remorseful prejudice even in deep
sleep,
God was irrefutably a timelessly vivacious rainbow of
desire and fearless hope; who not only blessed you
with the insuperable ardor to finish all evil; but
created infinite more of your kind every unfurling
minute of the night and day,
Giving uncontrollable liberty to the devil to do
whatever he could; in whatever form he could; but in
the end he would lose every element of his existence;
and victory shall forever be of immaculately bountiful
truth
