I always feel short of better words
When something boils inside me
I feel then I am doing enough justice to my impulses
My ideas come though brimming inside me
Impaired and weedy keeping my readers messed up
The greed for fame and name gets me going
Unrolling poem s full of verbose nonsense
I call poems them out of hubris
The creepily engineered structure of thoughts
I call a work of art
I want to write poetry and be it unjust and insincere
And I just imagine how I want to create a world of mine
Who live in a world of distorted values born of a philosophy that warps human sensibility.
I inconsequently write the kind of poetry that corrupts human minds.
That is why I am still in search of words
That can please you and promote human values
And can see human society a better place to be lived
Can our modern poems heal the wounded
I want my poems to voice this against this shamble of verbose called poetry

I like this one best mainly because despite all the statements, one feels the N is still looking to find their direction and the potential to develop as you write is there between each line.

The soulless city full of souls
How I see the rushing people
Knocking down each other pressing ahead
For space,
For food
For sex
I do not want to prove my saintliness
By critiquing their worldliness & promiscuity
For a while I attend to the divinity to see between the things
Spatial security haunts everybody on earth
That boils down to one thing:
Accentuating the maintenance of existence
He is crowding the earth
When his sense of self swells into a size that is likely to cover the entire planet
His hubris has a draconic mouth to swallow all else
The earth shrinks and hides her abundances

( I have written this poem within the same space respecting the norms laid down in the forum's regulations)

Osho, if I knew you, I'd say just let it flow. A good friend told me that he writes only for himself and NO one else. Why try to please this You, but that is private.

In fact I used to write poems everyday, not for publication. Then I thought the world is part of me and we are not disconnected beings, and why should I not share what blows within me, the fiery passion and the pressing urges. I am these days trying to cultivate an attitude inside me that everybody's mind forms part of mine and this sense of unity is urging me to be more open and candid.

And that makes me share all I feel and think
