That we learn to
Fight with our
Scariest fears
Once more ;

I dream of cities
turning to
Mad Jungles.

(From a free verse series -
I am Primitive)

-

I'm lost,
No, not in a forest of forgetfulness,
No, not in a jungle of flashbacks
No, not in an ocean of memories,
Just in my thoughts...

-

There goes a fire,
scorching jungles,
killing lives,
claiming to be unstoppable.

There goes a fire,
through the heap,
ending hopes,
of all cries and weep.

There goes a fire,
in the mains,
finding bridges and horses,
but nothing to tame.

There goes a fire,
in the city,
buildings and rooms,
all pray for pity.

Like a past, which wasn't meant to show.
Like a girl, which wasn't meant to be.
There goes a fire, seeming low,
burning all the good, men want to keep.

-

Humans feel safe with buildings and roads around them...
Even if it means destroying jungles and forests to make their world more safer...

Imagine if the animals did the same to the humans...
Just because they also feel safer in the jungles and forests.

Mountains and Hills give me great solace
Jungles and Rivulets give me great escape
Noise of metros makes me nervous like hell
Music of village makes me dance as well
But can't live without both, which is the honest truth

-

The jungles, one may say;
But beyond the tales of Mufasa & Simaba
Beautiful as we may,
We have kept our greens
That your vacation may make your safari
A trip to build our wealth
But be warned that we are or more
As civilized as this current age may hatch
Life on our soils has got style & heat
For the widely-read dream our lands in pride
And wakes in a pool of smiles
Blushing to the sun
Till each morning bears her reality
A foot on a true black soil...

09022021 - 40/365 - Mountains & Jungles

Mountains are majestic.
Jungles are adorable.
Mountains show you who you are.
Jungles make feel who you are.
Mountains invite you from a distance.
Jungles hug you in a tight embrace.
Mountains make you feel alone and at peace.
Jungles make you feel with her yet at peace.
Mountains stare at you from a distance.
Forests takes you deep inside her.
Yet, I always try to reach out to both.
Mountains for keeping me humble.
Forests for making me feel secure.
