The Spirit of the Desert!

Shining high up in the sky
beating down on the sands
A golden sun is what lives
amongst the desert lands!

The winds keep blowing on
turning surfaces to dunes
These dunes are never still
dancing to the wind's tunes!

The golden sands are
constant only in change
From a burn to a terrible
chill ,weathers can range!

Riding the camel
as a desert ship
For it can survive the desert
and its deadly grip!

Life in the desert is
a battle of death and life
A battle for survival
in constant strife!

 The desert tricks and
shows mirage like oases
Giving us false hope
in times of crisis!

Testing our every step
without any respite
With only an oasis
as a ray of light!

For water,our elixir
is extremely rare
Without this crossing the
desert none would dare!

But every sinle spirit
from oasis to a speck of dirt
is a part of something larger,
The Spirit of The Desert!

The curse of the Blue Diamond

Sparkling and shining in the light
Indeed a very beholding sight
Dearer than silver and gold
The legend, bloody and very old!

Greed ruled the hearts of men
for this was the Devil make
Wars were fought and
lost for this rocks sake!

Passed through the hands
 filled with greed and hate
With deceit in their hearts
towards their bloody fate!

The gem was a fortune
equal to that of a king
Its beauty and splendour
 indeed a cursed thing!

But whoever possessed it
was possessed by ill luck
For without warning an
untimely death always struck!

She was as capricious
as if she were alive
For towards their doom
 she would always drive!

But she was lost in history
with the damned who had sinned
Drowned by greed and lust in
the curse of the BLUE DIAMOND!

Oh!Henry.

Henry was obsessed with the year 2012.Being a doomsday theorist was what he loved being and came up with the most entertaining and ridiculous theories on how the world would end!
But one theory always stood out that of the year 2012.Henry would say that the whole world would come to an end in the month of December , when the Earth's fiery core would burst open spewing out lava,magma and ash ending life on Earth!But all his friends would exclaim was,"Oh!Henry".And so as 2012 had come with the month of December approaching Henry began stockpiling on supplies and other things to survive the END!
When the month of December approached the world was preparing foe Christmas and New Year 2013.But Henry was making plans on how to survive the world's end!He had made the most unrealistic plans,emptied his Bank accounts and had even had the  underground wine cellar of a rich relative arranged for storing his supplies!But things were going to get crazier!
On December 27, Henry got en e-mail and a text message from an unknown source telling him that the world was to end on December 25 , 23 50 A!Henry was shocked! he knew that the world was to end!But just 3 days were left!But Henry had been prepared for thr worst!Having seen the movie 2012 about a hundred times he had formed a general idea of how to survive the apocalypse!
But first he would have to convince his unbelieving friends that the End was for real.So he invited them for a New Year party to atleast get them together to save their lives!
But what was 20 50A!Then it stuck Henry that it was the time when the  destruction would take place i.e. at 11:50PM!The new problem was how would he convince them to come under his magnificent protection!He knew that it was up to him to save their lives for then he could ensure that atleat a microscopic fraction of mankind survived!But what would he explain to them when they realised he did not have the necessary things for a party.Well,they would realise this was not a party but an awesome effort of his to save them from the destruction of the world!
So when December 31 came Henry began going through his survival plans and inwardly smiled as to how his friends would honour him even so far as to dreaming himself as the new leader of the leftover human race!At around 8 PM all his friends started coming in one by one into the mansion of Henry's relative who had gone on his annual Europe tour at this time of the year!
Henry's plan was to make his friends wait till  11PM and then take them to the cellar.
But unluckily for him suddenly from the cellar loud music started playing and all the friends started heading there to find an exquistely beautiful wine cellar big enough to accomodate all of them with the finest wine and full of supplies including stuff for parties!Henry had totally forgotten that he had arranged for neccessaries as well as basic luxuries so that once in a while in the resource starved future he could enjoy himself for a few days!
But now music and food brought the fake party into reality and wine and champagne flowed down into the guests bodies leaving Henry shocked and his guests partying!But what was more amazing for Henry was that he was downning vodka like water and dancing to latest pop,rock and hip hop songs playing!But as 11:50 PM approached Henry finally began worrying about how they would last without supplies and whether they even had chances of survival!
The twist to this was that 11:50 had passed and when it struck 12AM the whole world including the guests shouted and sreamed in unison'HAPPY NEW YEAR'!!!!
Henry could not believe his ears when later his friends told him that it was them who had sent him the text message and e-mail and that the relative of his was also a part of the plan!
Henry asked them then that what was the meaning of it.They answered that maybe if Henry was right,then they would not get to see  April 1st 2013 so why not celebrate April Fool's Day then and there,leaving Henry exclaiming to himself 'OH!HENRY'!!!!!!!!

The future- an amazing age!

The year is 2114.Everything in our world has become virtual and digital. We are progressing so fast with technology that everyday something new keeps coming out. We do not have a tough time keeping up because we are not human anymore! Thanks to genetic engineering, we have evolved into stronger, smarter and far more superior beings to what you people could ever be! Our environment due to global warming has changed but we have conquered that too!
But the price to reach this amazing age has been too expensive! Our numbers which were once in billions has now fallen to within 10 million! We have lost our humanity and have mutated into beings with no heart! Now we only keep to ourselves, drowning in ourselves! We have none of your fauna out in the wild because we engineer them in captivity. They are designed and bred, all for the sake of being entertainment to us! But they aren't interesting anymore, so we turn to our IGNs.(oh by the way IGN is Inter Galactic Network and the other one is Intra Galactic Network!) 

We travel to other planets for vacations and even picnics. And we aren't alone in the Universe anymore. And yet, we have never been more lonely!
Our means of travel on Earth is of course teleportation with Teleports situated almost everywhere! Oh but to travel beyond the stars, we do that in starships with HYPERSPACE JUMPS to lessen the traveling time! Wormholes do exist and we can strategically locate them with ease now! Space on Earth is not avilable anymore for waste disposal but we found new dumping grounds and waste disposal methods! There are still some human characteristics within us. Space and other planets are our new dumping grounds or we can just vaporise them with ULTRD(Ultra Laser Treatment for Ready Disposal) which is just a big laser shot for waste disposal but since we feel it is expensive, we prefer the first method! Thus we are not 'global' anymore but 'Universal'!
The money that we pay now is on the IGN like the bitcoins of your time! But we have no Government or Authority controlling it! Instead a huge BUSINESS EMPIRE and CONGLOMERATE called SATANHELL CORPORATION controls not only this intergalactic currency on our planet but also the Government, the things we consume and produce and thus us! Talk about MONOPOLY! This corporation is so huge that it has its influence on other planets also! They produce, we consume. They employ,we are employed! And they pollute and we abet them in that! This currency called SPACECENT is what helps them control us because when they gained control of it, it was the only means of trade between us and those in outerspace and thus our only way to satisfy our greed! 

We are all greedy and this has caused this bewildering age to come by! 

As the storyteller, I hope your future isn't as lonely and terrible as ours!

Poet's Block!

I am having trouble writing
so give me some time
Forget writing,i can't think
even of a word to rhyme!

Last week i wrote poetry
like the back of my hand
Now words have no entry into my
 head,i just don't understand!

My imagination now
refuses to flow
My esteem first high
now has become low!

Maybe it is time
 finally for a break
I will have to take it
for my writing's sake!

A writer's block has struck me
or a poet's block to be called
It is jamming my head now
and has my writing stalled!

So a break i shall take
and come back with a bang
And so leave my work
as it continues to hang!

So off now i go for
my long or short break
Who knows seriously
how long it may take!



 

Mac Millan and the gypsies

On the move with the gypsies
was young Mac Millan
His journey had just begun
and he felt it was heaven!

But a gypsy's life was hard
and far from ideal
Mac was living a dream
that was very far from real!

Soon three hours into the journey
and his legs felt like lead
With his aching body
that moved as if dead!

But the gypsies moved on
at a very steady pace
His vision was blurring
as the sweat washed down his face!

He was already cursing
and panting under his breath
But his stubborn legs moved on
as if eluding death!

He thought he would fall but
luckily a village came by
When the tents were erected
he fell down to die!

But dead he was not for
only hours into his sleep
A gypsy kicked him awake
and wanting to weep!

But his ordeal had just begun
and worse it was to get
For now he was to be
a part of a wild gypsy bet!

The bet between the gypsies
and the villagers was such,
"Whoever pulled Jeremy
would get gold as much!"

The problem was that
Jeremy was a bull
Not wild but stubborn
truly hard to pull!

Young Mac knew
that he could never win
What a difficult situation
now he was in!

Now as the challenge was
about to begin in front of the crowd
Up went the cheers for Jeremy
which indeed were quite loud!

But as Mac used a rope
to pull at the bull
It did not even budge
let alone be pulled!

But suddenly to everyone's
surprise it began to walk
As Mac pulled , Jeremy moved 
the villagers were shocked!

The challenge was over
and Mac was glad it was done
The gypsies cheered for
they knew they had won!

The gypies took the gold
and continued to move on
They moved at a rapid pace
and soon the village was gone!

What Mac did not know was
that the bull had been drugged
The gypsies always cheated
and thieves they were dubbed!

Thus they went on their way
to far away lands
For next they headed
towards the desert sands!

For now Mac's chapter ends
here as said
Who knows now what
adventures lie ahead!



 
 

What happened in Bookville?

Once upon a time
When books were abundant still
They all lived happily
In the city of Bookville.

With books around everywhere
And libraries as many as malls
It was utopia,an amazing paradise
A place in the dreams of all!

But one day,strangers visited
this beautiful wonderland
They called themselves E-books
and their entry was grand!

Change was coming over
and took Bookville by storm
Little did the books realise
where trouble was coming from!

At first the e-books were few
But soon they were so many
Soon they were on the streets
as space was taken from libraries!

But they could be used
to fill tiny little chips
As the books disappearing
and fast taking a dip!

So the books gathered secretly
and decided to declare war
They would eradicate the e-books
and show whom Bookville was for!

But little did they know
that the e-books would win
As they did'nt need paper
for the E-Readers they were in!

And soon the books lost
as they were'nt upto date
They had to evolve and
for them it was too late!

And one day the time came
for the books to say goodbye
They would search for a place
where they could peacefully lie.

And thus fell Bookville to
the changing winds
As the e-books were happy
of the books' good riddance!

But today also there
are some books still
Waiting for their time to come
at the new city of Kindleville!
