Misbirth

Delicate and innocent being I was, hoping to bathe in the sunlight
But my hopeful story to dwell in their existence came to an unsuspected conclusion
I bet there were and are many of mine kind whose dream to live never budded
As I thought, “why should we be side-lined without a second thought?”
I wondered if they had steam evaporating from their frozen hearts
Or they had mercury running to and fro their veins
Their decisions lack a definite form; it is nebulous

Society has coincidentally transfigured her ‘My mother to have been’ into a disguised monstrous being
Mentally, she has been shuttered beyond and I am broken in the future tense
As they invade our future to atone for their unscrupulous acts to prove their findings
To the extent that even the blind see the beauty in life then they can closely imagine
As precious pearls we are; they crush us beyond recognition
And flush our remains secretly to God knows where
They violate the belief that ‘life is a continuum with no discernible starting point’

"My mother to have been" recalls that her faith condones and connives not with her action
For one of mine, kind equates to a promising generation yet to surface the earth
But then who would be rescuing mine kind from such pain of terror?
For the order of mine, generations are altered per the expressions of injustice
Based on the rigid social class’ discrimination and victimization
Time and over again, her conscience keeps on raging war against her
And playing flashbacks to remind her of fate with or without me

But what can the alternate be…is there really an option?
They think of how to flee from their troubles
And finds themselves in an unscripted complicated epic
However, the harsh economic and social conditions,
The ever-changing technological trends and dynamic religions
They nurture and foster this fatal and horrific accident
Meanwhile, society keeps on brainstorming
Deciding who to live or die

Let’s hope for the better upshot to birth an unperturbed generation of angels
We desire to love with our whole being unconditionally

Giving the giver that gives you peace and love from the bosom of the size-less heart all the praise  We are matching up to the ends of the earth to make sure that our task of discipleship really goes aboard; this is the title of our hymn “LIBERATION FOR PEACE”    The Holy Spirit knows boundaries; he cannot be limited in his own jurisdiction. So moving on to proclaim that which we have been taught by the teacher, we shall spearhead the action and affirm someday to come “THAT CHRIST MAY BE IN ALL” Not forgetting to promote the student Apostolate among students in higher education, in the Church’s mission and in the world; we came into existence to continue preaching and teaching the word that have life in itself to manifest wonderful and marvelous things according to the Will of the creator, Our Father... Moreover we recognize and work with all concerned men and women for joint action and reflection leading to a more just and equitable social order a...

PEN

This isn’t an acronym. It is a powerful tool. It is blunt but has altered the patterns of history with unequivocal writing success. It has survived all the defining moments through the centuries Ranging from the early reed, quills, and dip pens to the contemporary ballpoint, fountain, and felt pens. History has it that, all users demand a special pen based on the pending purpose of use There is this status symbol attached to any kind of pen that has ever been manufactured. M. Klein and H. W. Wynne had received a US patent for the fountain in 1867. But as early as the 10 th century, the pen had existed.  And until this day, it has metamorphosed through many phases and designs. One of my favourites and most used pen from the 20 th to this century has been Michaels Bich’s Bic pen that was invented in the 1950s. It is simply elegant and mighty. The sword could see itself sharp but the pen is supreme. Talk of brainstorming sessions that led to generati...

Tattered Dreams

They played the part yet plot the pact. Instead of repair, they lead in the shadow to rip the earth; Our gods are not to blame but them. They have betrayed our ancestors, Posterity can wait no longer. Arriving from yonder, they have come to judge our every move, To the letter in every decision backing our move. Dear Mother, my honour is stained and tattered! To where has my father departed? It seems our collective dream has shattered, The pieces pierced our feet and bruised our skin. My siblings' wail but the elders make merry. Our village is lurking around wealth, But our daily bread is locked up in the vault. We dread treading the path to revolt, And gathering momentum outgrow our ill-health. This is not the future we dreamed of. Our dreams, precious like the mineral that has taken our place now. The elders paraded the corners of my street with pseudo promises. We’d believed for a moment but our springs quickly dried up, And they silently masterminded the raid to rip our homes...
