Katharsis Karicatures


-----------------
The last leg of our journey
We are almost there
Believe and deliver
Coz we have stories to share

Wishes are like water vapour
Dreams are like puffy clouds
But unless we get them to rain
We won't have a happy crowd

We have scripts with a punch
And directors with flair
We have actors rearing to go
Coz we have stories to share

Dear God,
We are just a footprint
on your mighty oceans shore
We are just a shadow
in your lights grandeur

Send your showers of blessing
To each and everyone in this crew
We hope to touch the lives
Of our old friends and new

To make hearts feel warmer
To make tears sparkle somewhere
We have touching stories to share
Help us believe and deliver with care

Sub Division

Today your imaginary group is clearly very strong
But tomorrow your sub group will be painted all wrong

Today they give you a collective sense of pride
But tomorrow they will insult after they sub divide

Today you may even lead a group for their birth right
But tomorrow they will sideline you for your skewed farsight

Tomorrow is coming,  so if
we keep nodding like sheep
Or keep hunting like wolves
fields of blood will we reap

Steadfast companion

She removed my sweat and fears
She wiped away all my tears
She stood by me in cold and cough
By my side when things got tough
Whatever the tragedy
Whatever the emotions
My steadfast companion
For all occasions
No melodrama, No ego issues
O my scented box of tissues

Immeasurable

Two souls in love,
Expressing in their own way,
Immeasurable, uncomparable
Why quantify it in some way!

If love could be measured in roses,
How many tons do you suppose mom's love would be?

If love could be measured in kisses,
How many millions do you suppose an ideal romance would be?

If love could be measured by the marble on the tomb
How many truck load do you suppose a dog's love would be?

If love could be measured by hours in fond memories
How many months would your one sided love be?

If she believes he loves her more then she is wrong
If he believes she loves him less then he is also wrong

If our thoughts are more sincere than our words
If our actions express more than our kisses
Then and only then our mutual love could be termed strong

Even if I  love her more
in some hypothetic scale
 is it credit to ME
or to HER lovablty!!

But in any case
Two souls in love,
Expressing in their own way,
Immeasurable, uncomparable
Why quantify it in some way!

I will con you, you con them


(A sarcastic take.....)

This scheme is pretty awesome
Just take a bite and see
Once you are bitten
You'll want the world to follow thee

Our ideals will be legit
our business may not be so
Our interactions will be genuine
our transactions may not be so

You give me a hundred rupees
Others will give you much more
This is a golden pyramid, climb on
There is treasure for you in store

You pump up the price
Before you make the sale
You will also make money like me
This brilliant idea just can't fail

The world is a full of cheats
We will stay one step ahead
I will con you,
.............. you con them

Jealousy

Jealousy was not the norm for me
Others seeing me would usually turn green
But this time around I was sucked  right in
When my crush held the hands of the drama queen

Boys and men can fall
for the most superficial of traits
Why can't they wait for their true call
Why do they run after these weird dolls

She has neither my looks
Or my sense of taste
How is she able to bait her hook
And turn him into mushy paste

The J feeling is all consuming
A broad stroke of insecurity
A dark shade of anger
A looming tinge of anxiety

Am I inferior or is it
 an inferiority complex
Is jealousy a serious problem
 Or just an emotional reflex

Breathe in ! Breathe out!
ooooooomhmh pheeeeeeew
ooooooomhmh pheeeeeeew

Double Dilemma


-------------------
I am a hippo-butterfly
with my heavy lightness
I am a lion-squirrel
with my timid fearlessness
I am a  monkeying hyena
with my wicked goodness
Many dilemmas I have overcome
But I am split between the possibilities of what I can become

I am a mighty oak twig
with my brittle strength
I am a bamboo-grass
with my slow fast growth
I am a donkey fox
With a smart ass knoweth
Some challenges I have overcome
But I am still just a shadow
of the person I can become
