Fiction or Non-fiction?
How do you say so distinctly?
For facts, are splinters of imagination
And stories are grounded in reality
Fiction and not a fiction
Non fiction and negation of that
We cannot say that distinctly.-
You're a cat, they said.
Shrewd. Sharp. Cautious.
Called mice, i wonder.
Of the nine lives and the eight deaths.
Then life presents itself as a PPT
My deaths out of love
And the ones out of grief.
Of cat, I agree.
Of just 9 lives, I don't.-
Dear Phoenix,
Just because you can rise everytime,
You don't have to burn down
all the time.-
Poetry is our mode of rebellion!
Up in alliterations,
We slay with rhyme schemes.
Smashing hierarchies with metaphors,
Bridging inequalities with similies.-
Poetizing
The most romanticised,
but the most gruesome job on earth.
Like you go on dramatizing things.
Right from
A bird's feather that dropped dead to
A forgotten word in front of the favourite one
It's nice. It spices up your life.
Poetry gives highlights to mindaye events and let's them glow like sparkling stars.
But side effects? Extremities.
Intense life. Hysterical me. Dramatic days.
Stop poetizing poetry. It's lethal to poets. — % &— % &-
Your power rests on your designation
Our power rests on our existence
Your solitary rooms and air conditioned cars block realities from reaching you.
Well, you don't want them to bother you.
While your building networks and contacts,
We are building rebels and revolutions.
In your wrong judgement of all of us as gullible,
You make way for force that have become intolerable
We the people are different.
We the people are aware of your open secrets.
We the people are awake with dreams of justice.
We the people are working towards, while you find hubris and comfort in your illusionary POWER.

Common.General.
சாதாரண. சாமானிய.
பெரும்பான்மை. பொது.
Prefixes to 'people', the fundamental and most powerful unit of a democracy.
Problems of language.
They inturn rename
Inequality as providence
Entitlements as welfare
Managers as leaders
And citizens as subjects-
Trees don't just belong to yards where they're rooted
But also to fences across which their canopy spreads
So are we!
