gallows humour

 

Waiting for doctor,

It's tough to think about love.

Yama's no Cupid.

But, gallows humour

Sounds truer than TLC.

But, truth is not nice.

With one foot in grave,

Revenge and #victory lose

Their place to slumber.

in that tunnel

 

Those who have been near death

Talk of some #luminous marvel

At the end of a pitch black tunnel.

Those who have not been near death

Think there's power outage in their tunnel.

There's another lot

In that tunnel.

They don't say or see much.

They are nowhere everywhere.

gods and i

 

Is it #trickery

When gods apply Murphy's Law

To decide my life?

To pen

 

To #pen a new line.

To edit by the rules.

To erase the spirit.

To succumb to readers.

To forget senses dead.

To pen the last line.

one thing good about war

 

“There’s one thing good about war:

News—total BS,

Everyone’s a murderer,

And there are no friends.”

“For true writers who balance truth with lies, support #wavers:

There’s too much fiction,

History gets a chapter,

Can’t even sell love.”

“Ah! Bad!”

The young are on the right path

 

I sleep so well now.

The young are on the right path.

They are like machines.

No soc m, no po*n,

No ciggie, not a foot wrong.

No joy, no freedom.

Nirvana from birth?

Will they kill their Frankenstein-

#Bountiful machines?

"She'll be with us."

 

I left before you were taken to the pyre.

Not a tear when your mum and I hugged.

I lied to her, "She'll be with us."

I saw your abuser but I didn't bash his face in.

They wanted us cursèd ghosts out of their #orbital.

In my cave, I laugh and scream, "She'll be with us."

bad luck

 

Long ago, I had the luck

To compare the #lambent sunrise

And the look you gave me.

Curled up against each other,

We forgot it's bad luck

To compare the sublime.

So long ago.

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.
