WE ARE NOT MILITANTS !

We are not militants
Neither are we criminals
Our mothers named us
Good names of hope not yours of “kleptorians”

We are not militants
We are those who you left for, the remnant!
From the gain of our natural torment

We are not militants
We are those you treated like tenants
In our own home of natural abundance

We are not militants
We are those who you fed with the ruminants
From the portion of your colossal puncture
Left with us nothing to venture

We are not militants!
We are patriots of our compatriots
Who you tied with thrust
And left in the road of concussion to rot

We are not militants
We believe in one nation,
Unity in diversity,
But you! You forgot sincerity!

We are not militants
We dream and crave for peace at all times
But when you make peaceful resolution impossible
Then, we make violent resolution inevitable

We are not militants
We crave for happiness
But how can we be happy
when we circumambulate in the shackles of pain!

THE PIOUS ERRAND

Thee!!!
For I know
Yee are the omnis
Who takes side for the pious
Take my side...
Grant all my wishes!

Send your dove
For thou should rove
To perch on my anonymous lover
And drink from her water
Tell her to keep calm
That all these thin seasons
Will soon be over

Send your swallow
Twitter to my fary fellows
Tell them to worry not
And remember their halos
That there is light
To fight the shadow
A song of comfort to the widows

Send your phoenix
To the bachelors
For so many choices
Are only disappointment
To the spinsters
For so many faces
Staring at their shoe laces
Are facade of decay

Send your angels
To the mothers
That all their wandering
Days are over
The joys of motherhood
Is knocking on their rusty doors.

A TRIAL
If all dreams are horses
I will ride down to your heart
To deliver my colossal feeling for you

If all wishes are journey
I will travel down to the horizon
By passing through the green pasture
To elope you to my side

If all dreams and wishes
Are mere allusion
I will sit by the pacific ocean
To show my titanic affection

I don't claim that I am
The best for you
Just give me a trial to test
If I am an option
Of affection or infatuation.
