When You Walk, You Smell Death 🇵🇸

Dank field of lifeless bodies,

colored in blood and tears,

appeared to be insulting humanity,

The smell lingered around the surroundings,

engulfing this mysterious universe.

The battle field-serene, transparent,

painted in livid,

A cruel war is not the end of all revenge,

but loud mirth of all foe.

Some are running down the lane to fetch more arms,

Obscuring the peace with noise of

musket, rifles, bombs and weapons.

Oozing blood from million dead bodies

singing lullabies with a sour taste of grief

A bruised soul screams out loud for peace.

Scavengers flitting from bodies to bodies

like a beast

swiftly, smoothly, horrifying;

Aghast!

The war destroys the innocence of the universe,

injecting poison in the groups

Similar veins and blood,

creating a brittle wall of hate and disgust.

From millions of years

Chocking smoke of a wildly insane maze,

Achilles, Agamemnon, Odysseus and millions more

all suffocated by the thorny clutch of war

Still reeking of the world with stale horror.

Choices?

We have choices that can change this gruesome milieu

we have spells of humanity and good actions.

Let us make a bridge of generous thoughts

Filled with grace, reasons, and thoughts

Rekindling the love, friendship and kindness in the core of heart.

what a bright world it will be!

A world without peevish hate,

Yoke with simper

Along with zephyr

flavour the universe with miraculous taste

Consisting kindness, love and grace. 🖋️

Please keep Palestinians and oppressed in your prayers. 🇵🇸

Pitch, Poetry, and Parallel Times: What a Joka!📽️🍁✍🏼🗓️

कुछ कह दिया होता? कूर्ग का टिकट करा ही लिया होता? शायद सब बेहतर होता। The “if theory” is the wisest of all for the pitch — even for skeptical humans. Time traveling has always fascinated my mind, as it does for many of us. We often wish to leap into the future or alter the past. Last July, I unexpectedly got a call from the city of Jhilmil and Barfi. I felt the emotions exactly as Satyajit Ray’ s movies make us feel, with the metaphysical boundaries of dreams and reality, reminiscent of Nobel Laureate Rabindranath Tagore’s poetry. Before my rotting thoughts could steal all the joy, as they did in the movie Lootera near lakes, I tried to reassemble my gratitude while being in sujood. Literature expertise would lead to an institute talking about consultancy. Phew! I never thought God’s pitch worked like that. If 25-year-old Munazza hadn’t heard that, she wouldn’t have thought of this pun: What a joka! No wonder I’ve stopped writing. Ideas only come in dreams, in waves, often butchered...

11:11? What a stupid wish-granting factory reset ⏳

Scene I Lights Camera Pen☀️ How lonely and lovely at the same time, To live in a castle of own, How strange and fluffy The winds from roof Where rain keeps showering Like dancing along. I keep singing poems While doing the laundary And hanging the clothes to go dry Some lose their charms Some crankles, some run Some turn out from black to greyyyyyyyy! I tip toe the work I Like it's an art! It's always always better to do work this way. It's easy, and lovely And as Mary⁵ and Bert⁶ says, "Supercalifragilisticexpialidocious."¹ The people around notice nothing unusual as they're part of their own musicals. The kids love splashing in lakes, the women complete their everyday chores sharing emotions like an art, men walk around with an umbrella so dark making sure they hide their emotions, strangers both men and women whistle along (some hidden, most vague), cats own the roads and walk like Hadid sisters on Victoria's last ramp walk, lea...

A Love Poem, Finally🗺️🏡

Scribble, Scribble, Scribble, Crumbling another poem on paper without a word, Oh! Wait, scribbling on your skin.🪟 The beautiful arc of the stretch marks—I always wish I had one. Ammi had many; she told me Nani got some after giving birth to her. I stole a man with a scribble [strech marks]. Oh! I can't stop imagining the loud crackles during heavy rain- One in his eyes that I name his cheeks a land of tears, Other outside his window of the slurs people speak for him. Their ugly mindsets never come close to even his bin polythene. 🗑️ The man I stole wore long sleeves to hide the stretch marks. 👔 I wore long sleeves to avoid being questioned about my favorite burnt skin, “ Hey, what kind of mark are on your neck and forearms .” 👘 I am tired of telling them How much I love my burnt skin, As they made me a living story. Along the ocean of unbothered waves, I'm tired of his disgust for hating his stretch marks. Sometimes I carve a line or two, 🖋️...
