  that stared you hopelessly in your eyes; into the Sun of Omnipotent fearlessness.

  31. SENSITIVITY 

   

  At times crowning as the most unassailably embellished prince; making me triumphant over all my uncouthly coldblooded adversaries,

  While at times a devastating hurricane; pulverizing me mercilessly; to blend with inconspicuously threadbare dust.

  At times insatiably propelling me to soar handsomely through the majestic clouds; wholesomely oblivious to anything else around,

  While at times an evil sorceress; diabolically enshrouding every quarter of my mind; with irascibly vindictive hostility.

  At times making me feel as if I was the richest organism alive; with all murderous manipulation on this planet having not the tiniest of space in my mesmerizing life,

  While at times an indefatigable tornado of negativity; brutally crippling me towards the corridors of horrific oblivion; even before I could alight a single step.

   

  At times heralding me as the ultimate conqueror and irrefutably unshakable emperor; with all enchanting beauty on this colossal planet; blissfully assimilating in the magnanimously stretched contours of my lap,

  While at times an overwhelmingly ludicrous inferno of cowardice; forcing me to  sleep in the shell of sequestered doom; for times immemorial.

  At times incessantly urging me to surge forward in my mission of celestially exploring the entire Universe; melodiously bask in the glory of bountifully radiant Sunshine,

  While at times heinously chopping both my arms and feet with the swords of fear; burying me infinite feet beneath my ghastly grace; although I was

  profoundly alive.

  At times triggering me to fantasize beyond realms of magnificently tantalizing eternity; astoundingly titillating each nerve of my truculently anguished

  demeanor; with fireballs of vibrant compassion,

  While at times ruthless excoriating apart my intricate; with tumultuously lambasting depression.

  At times making me invincibly believe in my philanthropically unconventional conquests; wonderfully accepting the religion of mankind as the most unconquerable treasure,

  While at times squelching me to insidious chowder; in perception of things which were simply non-existent; in cognizance of a satanic end that was never to be.

  At times profusely enlightening me to sing euphorically with all goodness in the atmosphere; poignantly absorbing every element of rhapsody that existed in gregarious tandem; on the trajectory of this gigantic Universe,

  While at times tyrannically whipping me left; right and center for ostensibly no fault of mine; transpiring me to conceive gruesome hell; even when I was in the midst of amiably spell binding paradise.

  At times divinely relating to every iota of my mind; soul and righteous conscience; making me fulminate into an incredulously resplendent festoon of timelessness,

  While at times treacherously imprisoning my uninhibitedly serene river of priceless thought flow; with salacious chains of self inflicted misery; remorsefully torturing me till the absolute end of my time.

  And at times illuminating each beat of my heart with the impregnable light of immortal love; making me ecumenically commiserate with all those; with even the

  most diminutive fraction of pain,

  While at times hurling me towards the corpse of lecherous death every unfurling minute of the bloodstained night and the flamboyantly sweltering day; abominably charring me to bark a countless deaths; was my sensitivity.

   

 

  32. TWO WORDS OF LOVE 

   

  There were some who commenced the very first moments of their lives lying by the dilapidated gutters; and today they had  blissfully mushroomed into unconquerable monarchs of the biggest corporate empires, 

  There were some who commenced the very first moments of their lives insidiously languishing like an inconspicuous insect; and today they had blossomed into a bountifully beautiful flower; spreading their stupendous redolence; to even the most remotest corners of this devastated planet, 

  There were some who commenced the very first moments of their lives stumbling incessantly even before they could alight a single foot; and today they had sprouted into the most impregnable kingdoms; of unbelievably Herculean strength, 

  There were some who commenced the very first moments of their lives gruesomely submerged beneath a pile of mud and with trespassers uncouthly spitting upon their

  slavering skins; and today they had fructified into an unfathomable river of enchantingly everlasting melody, 

  There were some who commenced the very first moments of their lives stagnating like insipid shit near the morbid graveyards; and today they had bloomed into an

  aristocratic empire of vibrantly unending prosperity, 

  There were some who commenced the very first moments of their lives indefatigably begging on the obsolete streets; and today they had embedded their places irrefutably; upon the marvelously scintillating throne of charismatic strength, 

  There were some who commenced the very first moments of their lives being tyrannically lambasted by nothing else but the most horrific of abuse; and today they

  had silenced the entire Universe; with the unsurpassable power of their royal artistry, 

  There were some who commenced the very first moments of their lives suffering devastatingly cursed defeat; and today they had triumphantly blazed through even

  the most obsolete corner of hell; regally embossing the impression of their unassailable superiority to far and wide across this planet, 

  There were some who commenced the very first moments of their lives staring into despicably despondent nothingness; and today they had evolved a civilization

  of contemporarily invincible magic; on even the slightest of winds that they caressed, 

 

  There were some who commenced the very first moments of their lives being an infinitesimally rotting shadow which more often than necessary disappeared into the

  corpse; and today they had added every glittering versatility to their; astounding repertoire of vibrant existence, 

  There were some who commenced the very first moments of their lives as stray puddles of stinkingly impoverished water; and today they had pricelessly become the rain of vivaciously unrelenting charisma; for every bereaved patch of scorching earth, 

  There were some who commenced the very first moments of their lives in savage destruction and abhorrent war; and today they had become the most miraculously

  revered surgeons of philanthropic justice; Omnisciently healing even the most inexplicably brutal of wounds, 

  There were some who commenced the very first moments of their lives stealing fruits from the fields to placate their insurmountably hungry stomachs; and today they had boundless estates of their own; in which they uninhibitedly danced all night and day with the biscuits of; perpetually shimmering silver, 

  There were some who commenced the very first moments of their lives hopelessly sleeping by the deserted dogs on the roads; and today they had become the most

  richest organisms on this planet; with even infinite hands proving a fraction too less to count their majestic gold, 

  There were some who commenced the very first moments of their lives being ruthlessly orphaned and kicked by the conventionally murderous society; and today they had incredulously procreated a township of their own; an entrenchment in which everything reflected traces of their poignant blood,

  There were some who had commenced the very first moments of their lives being subjected to vindictively diabolical curses; and today they had celestially inculcated the power to accurately prognosticate the future of countless on their fingertips; have the

  entire earth encapsulated in their impregnable shadow, 

  There were some who had commenced the very first moments of their lives wailing in traumatized anguish without their beloved; and today they had spectacularl
y spun a tale of seductive romance on every entity that confronted them; reigning supreme in

  the souls of one and all; alike, 

  There were some who had commenced the very first moments of their lives frantically gasping for even a pinchful of breath; and today they had risen to that

  level of unchallengable divinity; wherein the solution to any dilemma lay fragrantly entrenched in their mesmerizing palms, 

  And there were some like me; and believe me I am not ashamed the slightest to proclaims this; who had come on this God’s sacred earth with not even a penny in their penurious pockets and with two words of love; and were profoundly proud to quit it whenever he wanted; again still without a penny in their penurious pockets; and with still two words of immortal love.

  34. LASTING IMPRESSION

  The plain cow milk steaming on the stove looked pretty bland; with infinite bubbles emanating from its persona,

  However the color of the liquid; with the blend of surplus vitamins impregnated

  left in my mind a lasting impression.

  The tapered blades of ceiling fan appeared quite ordinary; with a series of inconspicuous blemishes adorning the same,

  However the exuberant draughts of air it generated; transforming the blazing atmosphere into one with sedative cool; left in my mind a lasting impression.

  The branches of the colossal oak tree looked rustic and indigenous with century old corrugations protruding from its exteriors,

  However clusters of green leaves sprouting from its body; and the vivacious squirrels clambering its surface; left in my mind a lasting impression.

  The thunderclouds in the sky appeared dangerously ominous; casting a diabolical look on the earth,

  However voraciously pelting droplets of rain; accompanied with streaks of silver lightning; left in my mind a lasting impression.

  The beer in the cylindrical bottle looked like any ordinary liquid; with its plum color not attracting paramount attention,

  However the exhilaration that occurred after consuming it; the umpteenth fantasies that revolved incessantly; left in my mind a lasting impression.

  Swarms of bees in the hive appeared disillusioning; buzzing with discordant cacophony at unprecedented heights from the ground,

  However the nectar oozing from their diminutive bodies; the sharpness of their

  sting; left in my mind a lasting impression.

  The serrated skin alligator in the river waters looked supremely menacing; with its gigantic teeth ready to pulverize innocent bones to chowder,

  However the kingly fashion in which it slithered on the slippery mud; the agility with which it swam in water; left in my mind a lasting impression.

  The rusty iron nail extruding from the mundane wall appeared disdainful and disparaging; with innumerable crusts of skin peeling of,

  However the tenacity it exerted against the brick; its capacity to join pieces of

  loose wood; left in my mind a lasting impression.

  The pigeons soaring high in the clouds didn’t grab much attention; as they ubiquitously inhabited every nook and cranny of the globe,

  However the dexterity with which they managed to stay airborne; their occasional bouts of melodious chirping; left in my mind a lasting impression.

  The cars traversing the streets looked like robotic monsters polluting the air; with their wailing horns disrupting the stillness in the atmosphere,

  However the swashbuckling speeds at which they traveled; the intricate imprints they left on wet mud; left in my mind a lasting impression.

  The multiple hair broomstick lying solitary on the stony ground appeared full of remorse; with all those passing kicking it vehemently,

  However the tones of dust it cleaned from cloistered interiors of the dilapidated room; the sparkling complexion that it imparted to the ordinary floor; left in my mind a lasting impression.

  The bell hovering low from the dome shaped roof looked like it needed fresh coats of paint; partially obscuring the view of the omniscient Creator,

  However the jingling sound it produced when struck; the mystical reverberation that occurred as an aftermath; left in my mind a lasting impression.

  And scores of children I visited in the orphanages appeared quite bedraggled; with sticky mucus flowing rampantly from their eyes and ears,

  Blatant streaks of dirt lining their faces; torn rags embellishing their impoverished demeanor,

  However the innocence in their immaculate eyes; the boisterousness in their voice; and their vigor to fight against all impediments; left in my mind a lasting impression.

 

  35. EXTRACTIONS 

  I extracted curd from pure cows milk; after sequestering it for marathon hours from light,

  I extracted stupendously sweet honey from catacomb beehives; after adroitly wading the stinging bees away,

  I extracted scintillating pearls from the corrugated oyster shell; after fetching the same from fathomless depths of the ocean,

  I extracted poignant salt powder from the sea; after stringently drying the water under the dazzling sun,

  I extracted succulent fruits from the towering tree; after many years of plantin
g its inconspicuous seed,

  I extracted royal skin from the ominous persona of leopard; after decimating his long whiskered body,

  I extracted crystalline water from the belly of earth; after digging to unsurpassable distances below the ground,
