Pathways

Trod forward, along the banks of sandy beaches
trod along the shells of abandoned ebbs.
The salty water holds the tears of a million strong
as they fall gracefully onto your feet as if to say politely

Clean the Mrs. cloth: dirty she is with the gluttons
clean her thoroughly; the wine, the blood, the laughs.
The linen doesn't dry to the reflection of gold upholstery
no matter son, we can use her again and again til she

Wipe those tears, they do not belong amongst the righteous
wipe the abortive mess you made outside the church steps.
The baby had just begun to inquire about your name
and we judged you before you had a chance to

Explain to the masses why you speak so eloquently
Explain to them why they stand transfixed to your words.
Like snakes to the maddening tunes of the snakecharmer
the sheeps of societal progress flock to the sound of the

Deafening. Thousands bleed from the ears in silence-
bleeding to the resonance of induced marginalism.
Sing, dance rejoice in numb, ill-defined acquiesce
The louder you are, the more your lies become the truth.

X-------------------------------------------------------------X

I see you beyond the decaying moss
dangling the loose leaf of hope
You hold forth the twitching roots
a single tear falls to bring life to the shrubs.
The arid soils of attrition begin the feast
to undress the naked soul of life
the canopy bends in harmonic implosion
as I drop the vermillion dagger to the ground.

The Strong amidst the sheep.

It has come to my attention that a friend of mine is nearing death; just touched the age of 21 and is diagnosed with an unknown illness which is slowly taking its toll on his bodily system.

Even moreso, after this incident he is immensely brave and courageous about it - he has infact accepted his fate. The abrupt transformation in character is phenomenal: from a callous, indifferent individual who saw religion as a means of escapism, his faith in Islam has been rekindled and sees his calling as a means of being closer to God and parting with the "sinful" world. He sees it not as an adversity or something hideously unfair; but an opportunity to inspire change with example.

He now is spending time with those who are less fortunate then you and I; those who are terminally ill and have no outlet of compassion to fall back on.

It is with a heavy heart that I salute you my dear friend; for you have become the best amongst us. I have nothing but adulation and respect for you. But know this, God takes and gives; and those who are called before their time have earned His Love and Mercy.

Charge - Discharge.

I'd never get around as to why anarchist driven, so-called newer generation is attuned to dismiss the Musharraf administration with utmost contempt.

Perhaps that is why this country may never prosper. The uneducated remain oblivious, the middle class are sheeple: (guided by the unseen winds) - lacking the exposure and will to discern, the religious will refuse moderation, and the educated generation is too obsessed with marxism and socialism to ever provide a viable alternative.

Far too much suspicion does not a nation make.
