LEARNING IS LIFE

 A king with a crown on his head, "I'm God!" he proclaimed, it is said. But power's a mask, A damn toxic task, When pride turns to conceit instead *** A leader, quite puffed with his worth, Said, "God chose me to rule all on Earth!" He sowed seeds of strife, Claiming "My way's true life," While his conceit enjoyed a new birth.

  NARI SHAKTI AMENDMENT  BILL: LIMERICK The Bill, for women so grand, Passed in past, cheers  from land. They'd take their fair share, But now caught in a snare, Delimitation, a ploy pre-planned.

Be self-aware, know your mind: Poem  Your mind, a field, so vast and deep, Know it well, secrets to keep. How thoughts like seeds, take root and grow, Desires bloom, and come and go. Be aware of boxes built, By habits learned, and feelings spilt. Conditioning's walls, so hard to see, Keep you trapped, from being free. But in that mind, a power lies, To reach for stars, beyond the skies. Think with clarity, a higher way, Create new worlds, with each new day. Find balance calm, in every storm, Be strong and brave, keep your heart warm. Persevere through trials, big and small, And wisdom's light, will shine for all.

  Words Without Wisdom: Limericks (!) A ruling hand, bold as could be, Said, "No graft has touched, no, not me!" Then with venom he spat, "Those in power? Just brat, Corrupt to the core, can't you see?" (2) Lead Pol, with his words all askew, Made utterances hideously new Though sense flew away, Folks cheered him all day, And chaos and dismay then grew.

 Unlocking Yourself, Psychic Revolution Awaits: Poem The mind, a cage, its bars of should and must, Conditioned self, with every passing year. Escape is sought, a breaking of the crust, Psychic revolution blooms, banishing fear. No book can hold the key, no guru's hand Can forge the path that leads to inner peace. For freedom's found not in some distant land, But in this moment, where all struggles cease. Each teaching learned, each ritual performed, May bind anew, a gilded prison built. The self, reborn, by radicalness warmed, Sheds past constraints, a self no longer spilt. So look within, where truth resides so deep, And let the change ignite from slumbering sleep.

  New Women Reservation Bill Woes: Limericks A bill called "Nari Shakti," quite grand, Was flashed with a photogenic hand. But whispers arose, Of delimited woes, And a census throughout the whole land. A bill for the women so grand, To reshape the electoral land. Said rivals - Beware! A power snare! - They're twisting the story at hand.
