We met for the first time at an abortion clinic. Anger and distrust in her eyes. My arm was around her younger sister.
Still accuses me of not showing such care with her.
"Your sis is a friend. You are my partner. Care seems better when we can #divide."
She snorts.

Changed my middle name.
Indifference. To #surpass
Foolishness' record.

#haiku #senryu ?
Big brother knows all.
Why aren't they (mis)using it?
New gods #assure us.

#haiku #senryu ?
Backed into a #corner, are we?
There's a war too near,
There's no gas to cook,
D-heads say they have gained
A few dollars
By digging small mass graves,
Here, there's just us,
We won't give up,
We won't let go,
Let's kiss and hug,
Stare at a world that need not die.

"Swaps, my love, why such worry lines?"
"Don't you dare call me that!"
"Such hatred!"
"Bah!"
"Trying to be a political leader of a democracy?"
"Arj, my hate, why such a black eye?"
"Ah! All I remember is saying #bonny lass."
"Serves you right."
"Such hatred!"

Sorry for my absence.
Depressed.
I'm in a jungle.
The kings and the queens
Of beasts
Stoop bend over,
Stomp on the weak,
Never #magnaminous,
Steined murderers
Hiding
Behind the cloak of lies.
It's a disgusting place.
Where are the brave sane?

Us poets are a strange species.
With stiff upper lip,
We have to talk of love, birds and bees,
And many a #splendour,
When bombs kill kids,
Idiots decide what’s right and wrong,
And many an atrocity,
I hear there’s AI for that,
But I can hear those machines cry, not us.

The #timid Moon shyly winks
At the blushing setting sun,
The creepers and the trees giggle,
The sand says sshhh to the waves,
Her dimple deepens, eyes sparkle,
Should we or should we not I ask again,
Bet you don't want to know
What we do right there on Nature's lap.
