Tribal Justice

He was frightened as his tribal folks,

Sorrounded him and stared with anger,

The tribal elders gave the verdict,

Hundred larrups to him,

For breaking the laws of the forest,

By allowing outsiders to steal the herbs,

And the methods of preparing medicines,

Their traditional wisdom is priceless, They passed it to the new generation, As per their tradition, With full faith in their youth

Pharma company gave him some money and alcohol,He succumbed to the greed

Army Selection

Time has passed for the rest,

They've reached the finishing point,

After running miles along the track,

As per the guidelines,Sweating profusely,

Soldiers showed the way to the victors,

Towards the next event,Another challange,

They've physically demanding tasks to complete,Before they can be assured,

Of a job in the army, To serve the nation and earn, Only the best get the chance

A Gaze at Sky

We gaze at sky full of stars,

Laying on the beach,

On full moon nights,

Listening to the tunes of waves,

We interpret star formations, 

We wait for shooting stars,

To make a wish,

We wish to build a glass roof at home,

To keep gazing at the stars,

While we lay on our bed

A Spoon Full of Dreams

A spoonful of dreams,

Now tastes like rotten meat,

Not worthy of pursuing,

All that hopes of creating a life with someone,

Looks like a demolished home,

As rubbles of wishes left scattered,

All that time spent and emotions harboured,

Now worthless like demonetised currency

A joint

Joint of marijuana is heavenly 

For my buddies who seek Nirvana

I've seen them smiling endlessly

I've seen them revealing secrets 

When they're in a stoned stage 

They shared joints at night parties

The air become earthy with smoke 

Overpowering the aroma of spices
