WORD STREAM (34) Super Hero


     SUPER HERO
********************

 


Two types of super-heroes are found,
The first one, blocked in history -books,
Others, who shine in instant flashlight,
To give sharp sparkle, flicker,glitter looks.

Aladin's magic heroes come out of 'lamp',
And collect hysterical mob all around,
Time-wheel grinds and crushes them,
In street dust-bin,they are mostly found.

Screen heroes climb the golden stairs,
They act everywhere-except the screen,
And weep, cry,sob,blame,when they slip,
In ruins of memory,they are often seen.

New  heroes are in this net-generation-
Running the blind race of 'likes'-bike,
Love-only love, to see their own viral,
A dream of 'clicks'-the dream of hike.

Modern leaders are readymade heroes,
There was a story,that tells this hoax-
Once,life of a jinnie lived in a parrot,
Life of the leader,lives in ballot-box.

 Little child has only one super-hero,
His father's image runs in his veins,
As he matures- grows-up,step-by step,
Hero-hero rubs-off,super-super remains.

A brave soldier guards his own nation,
Nobody knows him,no attention to pay,
A terror-bullet comes- and he is killed,
He becomes super-hero only for one day.

One day, a man sees himself in  mirror,
His image reflects him as a super-hero,
But he loses his faith in his own arms ,
Mirror slips,breaks,and hero becomes zero.

Word Stream(33) In My Hell

In My Hell
************

I prayed to God,my solemn soul,
called Him in darkness of night,
Worship and devotion was my goal,
Depth of meditation,in spirit of flight.

All my prayer was to submit -
One ray of Light is much more-
Kindly come to my heart-
Come--come,do not ignore.

I called Him-all sacred places,
Whenever,wherever I went,
All paths that lead to Him-
My prayer was ardently sent.

Then one day He called me,
My son-I remember you,
Your cry, love ,  devotion,
Can parallel, only a few.

How can I forget my Creation,
How can I forget thee?
Come,welcome you in Heaven.
Come here,you can see.

I screamed-O God, I call,
But no call-back please,
On this earth-I am quite well,
No call-I am here at full ease.

Kindly be in your Heaven,
With all Your Might-I tell,
And let me live long--long,
 Long life in my earthly hell.

(22) The Great Modern Circus

(32)The Great Modern Circus
***************************

Welcome to this circus,
It is free of cost,
All are guests here,
Very few are host.

See these poor creatures,
Playing the lion’s role,
Obeying the master’s voice,
Tamed, from head to sole.

                                                            Ringmasters lash the mob,
Mob merrily play the tricks,
People surrender, and learn,
That heaven is behind bricks.

See the colorful players,
Begging your faith and vote,
Swinging above, on the top,
Seek and hide, without a note.


This is the power-play trick,
Balancing oneself in air-
Any moment he seems to fall,
But for five years, glued there.


See, most magical game,
A dancing girl, so dirty,
Most notable,everlasting,
Her name is POVERTY.

Here banners are roof top,
Slogan is the circus-band,
Ringmasters are magicians,
Playing tricks,hand in hand.

Finally, enter the circus-jokers,
Who waive mirrors-high and low,
People see their 'self'-to laugh,
Before 'END'-starts, second show.
