APRIL FOOL

Don’t wanna money, you FOOL they said.

Don’t know to be happy, you FOOLS, I replied.

I get fooled only on APRIL first,

You get fooled daily, for elsewhere lies your thrust.

I have renounced the world so cool,

I know not if that means I am a fool.

I pursue my dreams, money is just a tool.

Indeed for you, it is your climb up stool.

I rule in the hearts of my lovers,

I like these rejuvenating showers.

To pay taxes till one day prior,

To believe the very next day after.

Was 31^st March and 1^st April juxtaposed?

Was trust and getting fooled , means you stand exposed?

SPEAK

Speak out your joys,

Speak up my boys.

Speak you shall not your problems,

Speak not about your these sour plums.

Speak to people,

Speak not about people.

Speak to the point,

Speak not to disappoint.

Speak only when need be,

Speak so that mostly listeners feel happy.

Speak up for what is right,

Speak up to make others day bright.

Speak once in a while for you too,

Speak so that you need not have to later “rue”.

Light at the end of tunnel

Not an ear to listen to your woe,
Not because I saw everyone as my foe.

I don't mind being alone, but it kills being lonely.
It exhausts you physically when you have mental courage only as your ally.

Lady luck plays hide and seek,
Letting out all stinking feelings that it does wreak.

Repeated failures bog you down,
Realizing you play out to the audience, like a "sulking" clown.

People generally go from rag to riches,
Perhaps I go from royal stag to bitches.

In this dog-eat-dog world,
Intimidates fate, leaving fortune unfurled.

To see light, I have started digging my tunnel.
To me poetry is my emotion funnel.
