The world you saw

“A holiday in the skies gives me a view of what birds see,” said his last message, “I resent the silence of birds who see all, but do not tell.” I wish you could tell us about the zaniness you witnessed. A fall ended it all, and plans came to nought. I’m paragliding, because I … Continue reading The world you saw

Tangled

Tangled ….. by letsreadourwords

Roshni's avatarLet's read our words

Reena’s Exploration Challenge

Entangled within desires
That branch out viciously
Like the old trees, whose branches
Remain tangled and entwined among themselves;
Untouched, feared, at times revered too.
Their gnarled selves lash mercilessly,
Mindless of our lives…
And what do we do?
We struggle to free ourselves
But alas!! those deadly knots tighten,
And we remain enslaved in a happiness
That’s neither true nor real.

 

Thank you for reading 😊😊

Conundrum!

Conundrum ….. by Radhika

radhikasreflection's avatarradhikasreflection

Contemplating on choices at crossroads

Chaotic cacophony prevails in the indecisive mind

Creates contours of illusionary dimensions

Clarity camouflaged by conflict of thoughts

Complex patterns emerge, trying to channelize the clutter

Connecting the dots, seems to be a challenge

Conundrum sums up life’s path!

This style of poetry is called Pleiades. It has only one word in the title followed by a seven line stanza. The first word of each line begins with the same letter as the title.

Singularity

Singularity ….by wordflorilegium

dancjulian's avatarWord Florilegium

1st thought: ach, my smoker lungs
2nd thought: network of neurons
3rd thought: stained glass by Geiger
further thoughts:

i see process upon process, nesting and connecting
functions calling functions, recursive as the Mandelbrot
built of innumerable all-or-nothings
simple signals: ones and oughts

i think of artificial intelligence
supervised machine learning and big data
the hole down which the rabbit went
for tea with the mad hatter

i know a little about a lot, not a lot about a little
which is why my thoughts often peter out, loop, and repeat
or retreat into terms like ‘the whole kit and kaboodle’
rather than admit defeat

i try to see a line of thinking through to conclusion
and sometimes it even works out
but in this case, a matter this complex,
a guess is all i’ve got

i guess we are the parents
and computers are the kid
A.I. will live…

#162. AGREE TO DISAGREE!

Agree to disagree …. by Ramya Vivek

Ramya Vivek's avatarMy Musings

What do you see?

‘It looks like an elephant to me!’

‘No ways, it looks like three men are holding hands, standing side by side’.

‘Are you mad? It looks like Goddess Durga is sitting on a lion, giving us her radiant smile and blessing.’

To each, his/her own.

You might not see the same things that I see,

you might not feel the same things that I do,

you might not even believe in things that I blindly believe.

Yet, don’t let your differences dominate you and stop you from respecting others’ thoughts and beliefs.

Let us respectfully agree to disagree!

“#MeToo movement is not over yet, and here comes the drug-peddling scandal…” “Why does it bother you?” “Some of us are being victimised…..” “Are you sure you’ve never done it to others?” The big time film director looked flustered. He is not used to this kind of a response. “Well, it affects the manner in … Continue reading Snacking

I See Naked People

I see naked people ….. by Jim Adams

newepicauthor's avatarA Unique Title For Me

“I don’t know about you doc, but when I look at this picture, all I see are naked people.  I am prepared for this as my mind is always forming pictures of naked bodies.  I am used to seeing my wife naked and watching her undress, but when I see new people naked, it always seems more exciting, because of the forbidden taboo aspect.  These people are stripped of their identity, but they seem to be comfortable in their own skin, as they hide their perfect bodies behind a web like curtain, however they make no attempt to cover up or scramble to find their clothes.  They just seem to enjoy putting it all out there for my viewing pleasure.  I think that they have a wish to be free, but their desire for attention and their craving to shock others, makes me think that they are sexually frustrated.”
