Just look at the yellow lights blinking at you
The honking of horns is such a sound racket
For breaking traffic laws, you will land with a ticket
Motorway warriors weaving in...

CounterintuitiveIt's late, lo. I knew that the water I saw was mirage.
This is a world where, often, facts and fancies camouflage
Depths that seem unfathomable are shallow when measured.
Within wombs of tombs that seem empty, riches...

The smileIt looks as if a cap
Is the object moving?
Might be a turtle as well
Mist on my forehead
It's colour is pink
What is the figure seated

Whatever
Very often the head...

What is a PoemToday I argued about a poem I wrote,
I was proud of this poem I wrote,
But was this a poem a poem?

Upon this mortal stage, we don our guise,
In silken threads of smiles benevolènt made;

Echo And RealityI sing Shahana Bahar, a malody of delight.
It echoed aloud, Marwa, music of sadness-filled plight

Shall there be Peace in Battle?Searching for peace I long appeared

Helplessly lost and wept
Dreams of...

Things chaotic
about to transpire.
Pain with no limit.

The intake was heat,
And I guess the retreat had my mouth freezing.

Mass confusionCan't seem to get ahead
Sometimes I don't want to even get out of my bed.

Promising to change my ways
Slowly making my way from here to there
Do I even care
