Chewing Gum

There it was freshly wrapped in beautiful cover
At peace with it’s existence in serene isolation.
She was thirsty and hungry, feeling much lower
Trying to save herself from starvation.

Then she found it, the chewing gum
And the eyes sparkled with hope.
Quickly uncovered it with hands numb
And gobbled it up like an addict on dope.

The chewing gum found joy and happiness
For it got some purpose in its existence
It knew the joy of giving sweetness
Happiness through one’s own severance.

She chewed on to it and felt the sweetness
And slowly her endurance gained
She found some satisfaction and fulfillness
Hunger and thirst no more pained

Time moved on, things started to change
Thirst satisfied, the taste began to wane.
Sweetness no more existed, it felt very strange
And she spit it out, threw it like a pain.

Now it lies there in that filthy dustbin
Open to dangerous insects devouring.
Questioning grin it gives me as I peep in
Do you see yourself in me? Is it scaring?

Vicious Circles

There she is enticing you
Stripping slowly and teasing you.
You run after her in the hope
To grab, hold with strong rope.

Different forms, different sizes
In some unique ways she entices.
Takes away your sleep and peace
Dreams you weave of going to Greece.

Green in colour, a fresh huge bundle
She takes the form you can’t handle.
More is never enough you know
You Loose sleep over inflow-outflow.

That seat of gold, that glittering crown
She beckons you and makes you frown.
Filled with thorns this seat of glitter
You end up nowhere, not even in gutter.

Accolades and praise is another seduction
Run if you may from this addiction.
It eats into you and you become a victim
Of what they want and follow their dictum.

Then she takes the form you just can’t resist
She gets naked, and as much you desist
You loose your complete senses
Lust overcomes you and breaks your fences.

This is how she makes you run to cave
She your owner and you her lifeless slave.
You loose all that you have in this chase
And you are trapped in a closed maze.

Life becomes a maze of lost hopes and dreams
You left alone, no one to hear your hollow screams.
You keep running around in circles, devious
These circles of greed, ah! How vicious.

Lust

Man and women and this earth
Sex the genesis of nature, everyone’s birth.
Both attract each other, isn’t it quite natural
But what separates unnatural from supernatural?

Man sees a woman and she sees a man
The eyes meet and there’s some plan.
He wants her under his body
She wants to have fun if she isn’t moody.

Both get a chance and the sparks start flying
She is hungry for him and he is already dying.
Devoid of feelings the body becomes actor
Both become heartless, feelings never a factor.

She doesn’t love him and he doesn’t even care
It is just the hunger of body laid totally bare.
They eat into each other, the animal totally out
Sex becomes just an act, as if a wrestling bout.

When the animal takes over your mind and soul
It is lust my friend and body becomes the only goal.
You degrade yourself to a level totally inhuman
Sex plays havoc and you a slave of hymen.
