Existentialism

Existentialism





dwelt all mankind being friend and foe

in the global village,

and basked in the sunshine of their freedom

until corona came and  chased their freedom,

The very core of existentialism faced the danger of extinction.


dwelt mankind in various abode,

Corona spread her mighty invisible arms and spared the none

affecting the  man in the palace and on the street,

now the street lay all  barren and deserted

for humans are isolated,estranged and excluded like never before.


No festivities,no crowd and no ticking of the clock

every passing hour seems the same,

there is no rush,no hurry and no haste,

There are no takers for the numerous bodies,

that just witnessed their last sunset,

 awaiting  to be submerged in the nature,

Is it the wrath of the nature or of any long forgotten monster of the past

that came to seek bloody revenge from mankind?

or is it the prophecy of the old world that has come to haunt the human race?


I will not give up says the soul of the mother earth

my children will nurture me with their deeds of kindness,

with all their might's my sons and daughters will fight till their last breath,

there will be no annihilation this time, there is  hope and sustenance,

The cosmos will  rejuvenate me

The conspiracy to end me will expire with the demise of corona.

The Pristein Ring Master : A circus called the world

A poetic reflection on leadership, chaos and hope. The Pristein Ring Master   People gathered to witness the world’s oldest circus. At first, performers like fire breathers and jugglers brought delight, Aerialists — trapeze artists and acrobats — amazed the little ones with their flights. But soon, the strongman gave a stern look to the tightrope walker . The magician tried to douse the fire breather’s flame. The clowns — once beloved — entered the ring, And played the worst trumpet known to fame. Their friendly tussle turned too real, Peace, to them, was an unfunny deal. As with world leaders who, too, reject stillness, Addicted to noise, chaos, and the ringing of cash registers. Amid the uproar, the absence of the Ring Master was deeply felt. A cry rose from the crowd — where was he? Behind the dark curtains, a shadow stirred, And from it emerged the Ring Master, finally. With a whip crack and silent grace, Even the furious clowns froze in place. Normalcy returned, laughter r...

The Gini and Me

The Gini and Me I once opened a bottle and a gini came out. The stories I believed as a child melted quietly in my youth— never real, yet never forgotten. As I slided toward maturity, AI gripped the world around me. I want to bottle AI. Remove it, use it, pack it again and again— like a tool, not a tether. Let me feel the wind with skin, not sensors. Let me fail, foolishly, and laugh with no algorithm watching. Let me look as I am— with no filters. Let me be a human— with a brain and a beating, perseverance spider.

Essence of life

A contemplative poem on life journey. Essence of life lies in moving on — from stages of attachment to detachment , desires to nothingness , compulsion to repulsion , selfishness to generosity , darkness to enlightenment , fakeness to authenticity , certainty to uncertainty , vocal to silence — and sometimes, just being an observer and not being judgemental.
