Humanity

Can this humanity
claim
that it has drawn out
the best of its manners
can it say
it has been fair
to the world around
How can the world feel
so disoriented
Opposinf its own preaching
how can one call this
Humanity
Humane ??
Pretence is the mask taught
taught to be glued
and never taken apart
lest someone catches you
and shatter the existence of humanity
in mere dust
greed
hypocricy
and what not
is made this
humanity
so inhuman to tolerate

I am Society

I am society I am the mind I am greedy I am the kind I am love And I am peace I am what you Think of me is I twirl and twist And stop the change I break the bottle And shift the phase I am Mighty I am a Beast I can be tasty But I can be least Least bothered Least concerned Lest you make Me feel I am perfect I am time I am mortal I am fine I am a story I am a tale I was the king And the angel I am cold Cold like the mountains And I am warm Warm When the sunshine beats When the grenades fail I am the blanket I inhale All your sorrow All your grief I am old And I am ancient But I am patient I am the society - Saswati Barat

Commotion

Let it go Let it stay Let it run But see it does not run away Let it feel Let it touch Let it hold But only till you can behold Sweet noise Purple dust Morning and Twilight of dusk Sincere love Pathetic anyways ? Sooth your heart Open it Smell it But see that you don't hurt it Don't eat it It might not taste so good As it looks to be Be like that Do like this Compare Don't Consult Judge by your brain Not your heart Judge By the ways You have experienced Life And not by the Ways taught to you Sense it And it will be yours May be Forever... - Saswati Barat 1:14 Am May 21,2009

In Security

Where do insecurities stem from? How are they formed? Why do they keep bothering us? To put it nicely, I have met and dated a lot of men, and to put it professionally, I am an accomplished psychologist; pun excluded ; everybody has their own insecurities. Some in the form of past experiences, emotions they could not handle, a "Dil ka Dhoka" alias treachery or loosing trust to the extent of imagining or having what mainstream psychology calls pessimistic thoughts, i.e. they just cannot think anything else apart from "what might go wrong". Quite often, the circumstances of our present, our existence becomes "too" real for us. As natural as instinct, constant comparison to past memories and self idealized standards kills the thrill of here and now. What happens with constant emotional insecurity ? "It's insecurity that is always chasing you and standing in the way of your dreams."   -  Vin Diesel
