Witness

witness a lady
dressed in green
sight transparent, words that drift
witness her
and one day – swim
time lapses
then resumes its course
now witness the one
dressed in brown
sight consuming, words that clash
witness her
refusing to drown
time stretched and cracked
backwards, ticking
dirt
witness the lady
dancing free
sight erotic, a disjointed twin
witness her
distant, here
timeless cluster
paradox scheme
witness another
dressed in words
downcast eyes
disturbing sight
note:
time evolves
but first
it pauses

Maladies

Let me burden you
With my new disease
Life threatening
Life defining
Have I told you
About my new disease
Life changing
Life bending
I live with my ailments
They make my life complete
They’re nothing I can treat
They’re nothing I will treat
I burden you
With tales of pains and aches
How much is at stake
What grief I can take
I regale you
With a tale of loss and woe
Chapters upon chapters
Of magnificent maladies

Confirmation Bias
03:36
|
|||
|
What I live and breathe
Is confirmation bias
I only want to see
The truth that comforts me
I will accept
Nothing whatsoever
Nothing against my wish
Nothing against my will
Did I mention
That I consider myself right
Righteous and infallible
Believe the impossible
I shove freedom down your throat
I silence every conflicting thought
I’m scared but I will never admit
That I distort facts and am proud of it
Confirmation bias
My one and only truth

Aegis

Show me some respect!
Never leave the house
Show me some respect!
Friends are out of bounds
Show me gratitude!
Remember, yours is mine
Show me gratitude!
By staying out of sight
Don’t you ever leave me!
Don’t you ever dare
Don’t you ever leave me!
Why this forlorn stare?
Everything you are
Everything you have
Your every thought
Your every move
Your everything
Mine

Cutie
03:51
|
|||
|
You are not a person
You fulfill my needs
My ambitions and plans
What is expected of me
When you turn four
I wish I could replace you
With a little brother or sister
I will replace you
I am happy to share you
With the likes of me
No picture too embarrassing
For all of them to see
You are merchandise
You are a promotional tool
A social media pawn
You are not a person
I hate you when you grow older
I hate that you’re no longer here
The helpless, needy creature
So precious and so dear
The outgrown person I’ll discard
Lend her to whoever’s near
Let’s try one more time
Your little brother is here
You?
You’re too much of a person now.

Life Distribution

Space – wasted
Time – consumed
Thoughts – aimless
A simple fact
Too many lives
Moving – around
Stepping – inside
Then – forgetting
Compensating
For the loss
Distant – persons
Closer – people
Cast away
From all understanding
I think
They speak to me
Shapeless words
I comprehend them
Noise, static
I call it a gift
Somehow – below
Somewhere – near
A life
Met along the way
Acquires
Unwanted meaning
Away
From my usual ways
And thoughts

Inundation
03:25
|
|||
|
Sacrificing time and effort
Concept and setup and feed
Take heed!
Every day I inundate you
With my meaningless trivial life
A pleasure, a strife!
Watching the numbers go up
Setting my aim, progress checked
All hands on deck!
Each attempt my endless pride
Each response I savour
React as a favour!
What if the numbers go down?
What if statistics lose power?
I cower!
One more day, one more try
To convince myself and all you folks
That it’s not a hoax.

Lorem Ipsum
03:46
|
|||
|
The devil lies in the details
All of them are key
All of them are crucial
Why don't you all see?
You can never foresee
How much can go wrong
Nothing is certain
Or written in stone!
Let me explain
All the various points
All of them required
What one really wants!
Everything unfinished
Everything is pending
Everything unclear
The process unending!
Problems unforseen
Demanding attention
Reality collapsing
Inwards-pointed tension
Let me ask you questions
Until your brain explodes!

Assembly
04:03
|
|||
|
Proud of my achievements
Most of them unique
Time is a commodity
I can afford to waste
Quality is relative
Achievements are not
To boast, to shout about it
From the rooftops
My insignificance
Assuaged by my many gifts
My significant other
Does not bother
No-one but myself
The IKEA effect!
DIY
My effort, waste of life
WHY DON’T YOU FUCKING SEE!
