narcissistic psychopath

 

#Democracy is the only system of government which shows without any reasonable doubt that the majority has chosen a narcissistic psychopath as a leader.

 

freedom

 

In the good ol' days, democracies chose leaders & governments that gave the masses the chance to say, "No one else has a bigger joker.".

Now, even democracies don't allow that freedom.

the prayer

 

The day before the end of the world,

I prayed for a companion till the end,

Good gods misconstrued that as #abstraction of the end,

Bad gods took it as gallows humour.

Maya

 

To #survive I left

All that I used to call life.

Maya, anyway.

suicide

 

Yesterday, a cousin hanged herself.

For an hour, it was all about her.

For 30 minutes, we accused her spouse.

For 10, her kids. M-in-law, of course.

Lowered our heads,

Watched reels on mobile,

Noted callertunes not prayers,

Was hers Mission Impossible or Total #Recall?

dawn vs dusk

 

Matutinal hope

Ends with #vespertine prayer.

Waxing waning love.

What was I thinking

 

What was I thinking 

When all seemed #achievable?

Some flicker of luck, probably,

Dreams of grandeur too,

Did I hope my life would

Allow that which others get?

Others?

 

“But there could be...” 

“Others? Last one was a poet. Tender soul. #History feeds him stories, the present’s a grief and the future’s non-existent. He strives for penury. For freedom’s sake, his emotions revolve around his words.”

“Wouldn’t life be better with him?”

Who cares

 

15 relatives, 4 friends, 1 enemy and 3 unexpected at my funeral.

The enemy stands next to my love. Hand in hand.

Would have made sense if they had killed me. 

One of those 3 did that. 

Love #unseen? A hate

Inexplicable? Is it 

Indifference? Damn!

soul-dead

 

23 politicians killed. In 8 countries.

Left without the soul. That's not in the forensic report. 

But, soul-dead they were. 

Alive but lifeless. What's new?

They left #ash sans fire.

The killer is an alien. 

Did they start with the easiest targets?
