Mind You


 Mind you it  is another day,

Not different from any day,

 Mind you it is a usual  wake up,

Not very different from  other get ups.

 

 Mind you it is going about the normal way,

Buying grocery at the sub way,

Holding a while in the mad  traffic,

Exhausting the energy quick.

 

Mind you it is another page of your life,

Quickly turned  reflecting the hurried strife,

It is a fresh leaf out in the lease,

Cautiously straightened for a release.

 

 Mind you age rolls out in brisk speed,

Withering the face to  a wrinkled seed,

Customs break the beauty  to an  antique calm,

Sagging muscles detonate the  exuding charm.

 

Mind you  life flows on like a river,

Years move on in a quiver,

Bringing cheer and sadness together,

Well, that is how another day gathers.

Circular Mapping


The impudence of the kin,

The arrogance of the kith,

The  disregard of the near,

The disdain of the dear,

Lasts  not for a year.

 

They change with the seasons,

Cold is their feeling in Winter,

Friendly is their attitude in Summer,

Endearing is their advance in Spring,

Indifferent is their thought for autumn

 

They vary with periods of the day,

Pose a smile in the morn,

Look displeased in the afternoon,

Express a sneer in the evening.

Ensue a threat in the night.

 

Their  endearing and exuberance  persuade

Their shrug and shriek dissuade,

Their jibes and vile intrude

Their provocation and condescension delude,

The mind ,thought and whatever not.

 

Ever be ready to attack them

Not with weapons but with words,

Let them be scathing and sticky,

Conducting a hurt so brutal and  poignant.

Befitting their taunts and tantrums

The Other Side


Beyond the walls lies the other side

Mostly  the pastures are green on the other side,

The numerical coins have two sides,

They do expose a head and a tail,

Man has a single face,

 But he shows different countenance,

 He smiles at one,

Scorns the  other,

 He looks  up with admiration across,

Also turns away  with contempt all over,

 His eyes  reveal kindness,

They emit evil too,

 His face reflects the mind,

It also refracts the heart,

His  heart sings,

It also cries,

His  mind discerns,

It also swings,

The other side is gorgeous  more so

When it depicts a liking,

It is disastrous most often

When it creates a dislike,

The other side in most  attributes is constant,

 Lo! the other side in man is variant.

So goes the Poet’s thought,

Exploring the  thresholds of the human.

The Great Wall


Walls play a vital role,

Across the countries ,

Around the houses too.

 

 

The Great Wall of China is ancient,

It is a fortification against  invasion,

Really it is a wonderful monument.

 

The Great Wall divides Berlin.,

A physical division of east and west,

But it is a symbolic boundary of Democracy and Communism.

 

Walls divide and  earmark the borders

An apparent way to limit the rightful ownership,

If not extensions would become encroachments.

 

Walls have other functions too,

Mental blocks build an imaginary wall,

Breaking the conducive interactions.

 

It is easy to bring down the brick walls,

A blow shatters them to a collapse,

Leaving the space unhindered.

 

It is a travail to shed the minds  abstractions,

A trigger is enough to ignite the fury,

Evolving a unceremonious flutter.

 

The Chinese Wall is one of the seven wonders,

The Berlin Wall has been pulled down,

The agony builds stern walls that remain forever.

The Dust


A sudden storm blew  violently,

As the dust swept forcefully,

Leaving an incredible haze ,

Smudging the eyes in a daze,

Creating a  typical dryness

Inducing a  painful soreness,

Casting an apprehensive   diaspora.

 

 

 

A sudden onslaught of thoughts,

Decimated the mind to naught,

Making it to slump into commotion

Rendering it  to a   dereliction,

Instigating a miserable  sequence,

Involving a deplorable grievance,

Inflicting a destitute digression.

A Mental Block


Twinkling like a star up above the sky

Glistening like a dew down on the grass ,

Shining like a bubble over the blue ocean,

Strewn over as pebbles in the dry ground,

Thoughts prepare a lovely sketch on the mind’s canvas..

 

Alike the beauty of roses in the garden,

Akin to the innocence of the  toddler ,

Similar to the small stature of a sparrow,

Like the colourful butterfly  hopping ,

Ideas fresh and keen create a delicious sprawl.

 

 

The biting cold blizzard makes a puffing,

The dazzling white snow fall like balls,

The frozen ice delude the rivers as thick sheets,

The habitation  experiences a shiver in the winter,

The mind stands still like a lifeless vegetation.

 

 

Insights get stuck  as stumbling blocks,

Progress stagnates as water in a muddle,

Proposition falters as fall in a slippery terrain,

Significance eludes  as a  shadowy  gloss,

Deliberations   suffer a mental barricade.

The Mind in Itself


The mind in itself

Carries   a heavy load,

That no air bus,

Nor  Super fast trains,

Or the gigantic ships,

Take along with them,

On the air,

Across the country,

Over the seas.

 

 

 

 

 

 

The mind in itself,

Holds a package,

That no flights give out,

No railway lines promise,

Or Shipping companies put forth,

Offering a promotional fare,

Charting  a discount  tour,

Inviting a luxurious cruise.

 

 

 

The mind in itself,,

Levies a  bondage,

As it has a soft luggage,

Of happy thoughts,.

Of delighted  workings,

Also drag  a hard  side luggage,

Of  evil thinking,

Of devilish strategies,

Balancing each other .

 

 

 

 

The mind in itself .

Appears like a melting pot,

Blending and fusing races,

As it rejoices and rebuilds,

On one side,

It fumes and froths .

On the other,

As the pot boils   with fumes,

The mind triggers  with  force.

 

 

 

 

 

The mind in itself,

Can make a heaven of hell,

As the famous bard puts it,

It also can make,

Virtue into vice,

Beauty into ugly,

Sanity into insanity

Cause its capacity,

Is worth an infinity.

Mind In Itself


Mind is the great go getter.

Any achievement is possible with a  mind in its place.

A slight distraction spoils the sport.

A little deviation destroys the focus.

A total withdrawal reverses the trend.

So , a resolute mind is the essence of any success.

A   disproportionate  approach  is the cause for failure.

As matter stands so, the nourishment of the mind goes a long way in  recording triumph and revealing victory.

 

A serious bent of mind is termed as sober ,reserved introverts.

A light easy go inclination is dubbed as jolly , light headed ,happy persons.

The introvert is mostly misunderstood.

The serious man , goes about his work ,uninterrupted by pranks and truancy of the rest of the clan.

His goal is work, and his query is how to accomplish the task meritorious?

So with unflinching courage and undaunted spirit he fulfills his task.

He ends up as a top performer.

 

The case of the easy go lucky differs  from the sullen  programme .

He takes things as it comes.

He works with less concentration.

His assignments do not claim credit.

His faculty is not sharpened by wit.

He does a slipshod performance ,that lacks merit and admiration.

 

 

A dull mind creates a different assumption.

There is nothing practical, nothing admissible, nothing appreciable .

The presentation lacks character.

It is a drab.

 

A gloomy mindset staggers a confused  diagram.

It is one of maze, one of turmoil, one of shoddy sketch.

The creativity gets discoloured and there is excess sorrow and enormous struggle.

 

The mind in itself can make a heaven of hell and hell of heaven, leading to glory or disaster , as the things reckon.

Security And Scepticism


Security is mortals chief enemy says Shakespeare in Macbeth.A Machiavellian hero Macbeth,feels very insecure towards the end of the play. He ,who slew many, who treacherously deceived everyone, and who felt that he was the King of Kings, spent sleepless nights, bemoaned that the waters of the ocean were not enough to wash the blood from his hands.The delineation of the titular hero by Shakespeare is beautiful and slowly unfolds the character of Macbeth. The tempo is exhaustively firm, the thoughts of the protagonist is carefully unravelled and the tragedy is slowly laid bare .

Right , a similar incident took place  in the circle of my relatives.This man is not a King , but thought himself to be so. He is from an affluent family, possessing properties of worth, and investments in stocks. Not only he, but his father and siblings , talk in millions, think in billions, and imagine in trillions. In reality ,he lived not in modest habitation but very ordinary houses, with less amenities and no comfort. But he  made a propaganda of his wealth , in  a loudest manner. His prattle came to an end ,when one fine morning he disclosed, that he had loaned a half a million $ to his client for an interest of 18%. His client has not repaid the loan ,nor given interest for five years. The man who has taken the advance ,has totally failed and refuses to give. My friend has made many a mistakes like this represented case ,and feels very insecure. Is he not a faint resemblance of Macbeth?

Scepticism , is another quality that needs a keen research. Scepticism is suspicion or indecisiveness. Why does one becomes irresolute, because the scepticism in him is irking him. Shakespeare  comes with a famous character of Hamlet. To be or not to be , the lines  interpret Hamlet’s mindset. His suspicion  leads him nowhere. and the tragic  efficacy  fervently en wraps the  scene. Opportunities are lost, and the essentials go amiss. Chaos and confusion prevails.

Now , there are many Hamlets ,in reality. Again capturing an episode nearer home, I bring to the table another relative, who spoiled the wealth and reputation of the family by his scepticism. He , unexpectedly , got charge of the reins of the family business. He lost his head, and manged the affairs without trusting his own siblings, his managers, and the deputies who had assisted in the growth of the business. He suspected the financial institutions, felt wary of the auditors, withdrew from  right minded people, shunned old time affliates and changed lawyers .He mismanaged the entire business. The family has  lost everything, name ,fame and finance. Is he not a replica of Hamlet?

Shakespeare has made a thorough study of men, their mind and their idiosyncrasies.  Many centuries after, we find men of identical  qualities.
