Tell me Life is not cruel And truth is not deep That I’ve been chasing shadows in the street Tell me Love is the answer But justice comes before For the walk of God is the strife therefore Tell me This is the reason why it’s evil’s season That dualism is the nuance Before goodContinue reading “Tell me…:A poem”

The past has no redemption: A poem
The street grows number with every footfall Here the past disappears beyond recall Old debris lie amid mystery’s utter depth such that no lessons are learnt in retrospect And the shamus taps quixotic at the riddle Attempting to unravel what lies eternally hidden Fantasising that he could even change his standing Trace back the palm-lines,Continue reading “The past has no redemption: A poem”
Where is Christ?: A poem
The Kings are playing the game of rule It’s time for them to check and check-mate The pawns are rolling, and it’s cruel to see how this goes to placate great nations who don’t want to, yet, battle but to cold war, as they build an arsenal A world is in throes, but they haveContinue reading “Where is Christ?: A poem”
China’s burgeoning military juggernaut rolls on…
In November 2021, the annual defence report presented to the US Congress outlined China’s growing military depth and rapid militarisation, emphasising the latter’s pursuing a power parity with the US. The report iterated China’s endeavour to usurp the current global status quo in its favour, by pretending to enact `the great Chinese national rejuvenation.’ ItContinue reading “China’s burgeoning military juggernaut rolls on…”
Happy New Year: A poem
Another year gone by another year come to pass A virus that doesn’t seem to die has besieged the world. Alas! Few nations have the power to buy antivirals. But many more haven’t a chance. Wishes and hopes we exchange in abundance But a few home-truths should signal our decadence That as a few ofContinue reading “Happy New Year: A poem”

While most scientists are in consensus that climate change is being caused by anthropogenic factors, there’s a volume of written work that suggests the contrary. It would be judicious to engage in the debate before we embark on deciding that the climate change agenda crusaders are the final word on the subject. According to NASAContinue reading “Climate change agenda being imposed on developing countries”
Just for laughs: Give the snob a bob
There’s very many an often that one bobs into a snob. But it’s always likely that the snob wouldn’t take notice of you. For snobbery is the incredible art of one-upmanship. Like this gentleman, who was so snobbish that he only wanted to know the people that didn’t want to know him. And this lady,Continue reading “Just for laughs: Give the snob a bob”
Disenchanted Christmas: Two poems
Dismissing the congregation Moondrops trickle at eventide cool The air has the charm of a dead leaf crumbling to dust at the doors of a cafe. I suppose, no feet will stop to bale off this imposing wintry cover. The host cheers the party to tones of autumn falling arse by arse on the vacantContinue reading “Disenchanted Christmas: Two poems“
Just for laughs: For bureaucrats, there’s never a better time than never
If bosses can be dead losses, inefficient staff couldn’t come out any better. But this unfortunate Joe, for instance, quite had reason to believe that destiny had a measure in his censure. Or, why would the boss be the only man at the office who’s early when you’re late and late when you’re early?!? OurContinue reading “Just for laughs: For bureaucrats, there’s never a better time than never”
As the world bats for democracy, China lobbies against
Latest US sanctions on China, North Korea and Myanmar are a commendable punitive action against nations that wilfully suppress the will and freedom of their peoples. These nations simply cannot go about perpetrating human rights abuses with impunity. The US, on Friday, 10 December, imposed sweeping human rights-tied sanctions on a host of people andContinue reading “As the world bats for democracy, China lobbies against”
