Known for her integrity
keeping away from curiosity
reserving herself to herself
talking not a word more
disciplined and straight
she walked and talked
She collapsed literally
when she faced a blame
that too from an unexpected end.
She burst out not in anger
but at the venomous bite
sharp, strong and stinging
broke her into pieces
left her paralysed for a moment.
Gathering strength she regained
from the momentous assail
got back her strength and attitude
that had been with her all through the years.
It was a thorough search,
leaving everyone in the lurch.
It was a raid.
It was a thorough raid,
exposing everything that was discreetly laid.
It was an investigation.
It was a thorough investigation,
unravelling everything from the closely conceived distribution.
It was an exposition.
It was a thorough exposition,
laying bare the well conceited deviations.
It was a fraudulent.
It was a thorough fraudulent,
directing to an unscrupulous deceiving indulgence.
It taught a lesson.
It was a moral lesson.
delivering that integrity has a beautiful designation.
A lawyer behaves extremely rude.
His words are abominably crude.
Well, dub him as a dude.
He thinks high of his capacity.
But lacks the basic integrity.
Well, he presents abnormal difficulty.
He betrays his valuable clients.
He supports their bitter opponents.
Well, call him an impertinent.
He may be successful in profession.
He is out of the area of appreciation.
Well, he is deficit of recognition.
The world should shun such unethical.
Keep him out of the radical.
Birth of you keeps me wondering,
Family of you makes me thinking,
Friends of you get me embittering,
Actions of you are detesting,
Oh ! tell me why you are so infringing?
Your deeds force me to undertake a study,
Up I go with my frantic search ready,
I got a background of your family already,
No wonder you are so undisciplined and greedy,
Committing faults mightily gaudy.
The eldest of you is a school drop out,
Talks incoherently in a shrill base throat,
Clad in shabby, unkempt attire throughout,
Thinks he is a perfectionist in a float,
Vitally he is a treacherous cut throat.
The next in order is the only educated ,
Speaks in measured terms not affected,
Dresses up in impressive clothing well-managed,
Behaves with charm and grace absolutely dignified,
Truly he is an elegance finely styled.
The third of the family is an empty head,
Prattles in broken disorganised thread,
Wears the most unsuited dress code ahead,
Poses himself to be well read,
Really he is a snobbish dread.
A family so different I rarely find,
Not looks but thoughts also differ I extend,
Integrity also has a graphical bend,
The siblings move on to the end,
With their own specific blend.
(The four brothers are products of imagination.The poem refers to none dead or alive)

Wrapped up with many tries,
Concealing each other in a dice,
Forging ruthless flies.
Truth stands alone,
In a flattery zone,
Where it is thrown
By the windy blown.
Yet it stands up above,
The restless grove,
Of tantalizing move,
And disquieting rove
It hovers over a platitude,
Of infirm fortitude,
Going through a coveted ingratitude,
As it accost a rebellious latitude.
It resists the tempting allure,
By holding a stately demur,
As it shunning the facile glamour,
With a shielding armour.
Integrity clones with honesty
By slicing the fiction out of the priority,
As it accepts the directions of morality,
By discarding the dubious activity.
Integrity undergoes much hardship,
As it gets battered by the whip,
Still it bears the tedious strip,
With a poised graceful flip
Something is a common word used by all of us to denote a relative term, an unidentified product, an experience that calls for no attention,a feeling that cannot be described, an incident that is unimportant and finally a feigned connotation for an idea that is beyond comprehension.The Indian definition of this simple is entirely different from the dictionary meaning. The word itself gets an absolutely varied hue and complex design that is beyond comprehension.
Well, coming to the point, “something “is nothing but the extras that is linked with accomplishments. To put it more clearly, it is a bargain behind the scene, an underhand transaction , an under the table dealing.This “something” enables a free smooth passage to a conclusiion of tasks in the government offices. It expediates the passing of papers and approval of projects in banks and financial institutions. It snatches an admission in an educational institution of repute, leaving the meritorious in poor shape.It also facilitates procuring a ticket in the trains, which is the most popular mode of transport in India. It provides an easy entry into the temples . Worshipping the Lord is also not spared by this “something”. The more ‘something’ , you give the proximity to God becomes close.The judiciary , also succumbs to this defiend “something”The more you part with the more you gain . This is the simple hypothesis , the Indians, the Indian Government, the Indian bureaucracy, the Indian education system , the Indian financial set up, and the religious departments adopt.
It looks funny. It seems to be amusing . It is intangible. It is a practice that is followed all throughout the country in great unanimity. The ancient country , known for its rich culture, enviable heritage, and a land of hundreds of languages, varied religions, Hindus, Muslims, Christians, Jains, and Buddhists, with a thoroughbred caste system , and with extreme dissimilarity in customs and culture, is virtually unified in accepting “something “to make things work. It is blatant bribery in pretension. It is a blackmark to the Indian governance. It is equally a deridingsymptom that should be eschewed by the Indian community.
The cry may seem to be out of box thought. It may appear insensible and ridiculous . It may designate an unappealing enumeration. But it has to be deployed to enrich the credibility of the country
