The P.O. T At A Glance
(Poured Out Thoughts)
Preface
The aim behind this piece is simple: it is about entertaining, enlightening, inspiring or motivating and enabling people think for themselves.
The Making of self in the light of the tree
I’m Rooted in Self-discovery
I’m Stemming out in Self-realization
I’m Branching forth in Self-Dynamism
I’m Leaving in the process of Self-completion
I’m Flowering in Self-propagation
I’m Fruiting in Self-Productivity
True Poetry
True poetry is brought forth when there is a ‘Pouring Out (of) Emotions Through Real Yearning’. In other words, the ‘Pouring Out of Emotions Through (the) Reality (of) Yearning’ defines True poetry

(A)
Out of the Box
Out of the Box
I was lost in the box called life…In it,
(I)
I wanted learning
but my education was deafening
I wanted truth
but my reality faked its root
I wanted to buy the right counsel
but my mind controller got me its left sell
I wanted to be free
but my pursuit turned a tree
I wanted information
but my vision brought me deformation
I wanted wellness
but my state showed illness
I wanted food
but my money was rude
I wanted a wife
but my life mirrored a knife!
I wanted the clarity of pleasure
but my naked eyes saw the dullness of pressure
I wanted to live forever
but my death was to question For Ever
I wanted peace
but my perception reflected unease
(II)
I wanted to know about people
but my understanding was a fumble
I wanted to be everyone’s friend
but my experience was the pal’s end
I wanted to be rich
but my efforts didn’t catch a fish!
I wanted direction
but my limitation was the obstruction
I wanted to know the ‘why’ to everything happening
but my answer had to cry to all prevailing
I wanted to invest in good
but my previous return showed “fooled”
I wanted to scream because of pains
but my calmness showed up because of gains
(III)
I wanted people to hear my voice
but my quest was a noise
I wanted money
but my struggle was funny!
I wanted to know why the world was divided
but the response was: “Its control is what’s favorited”
I wanted to know what happens after death
but my physical life told me I was on earth
I wanted to tell people my experience
but my words failed me in their presence
I wanted to know if I knew what I know
but my existence replied with a “NO!”
I wanted to find myself through my works
but my inner-self whispered: “If you want to find yourself, then think Out Of the Box!”

The Worthiness of Truth
(I)
Its appearance beats the imagination of the naive.
Its weight of its significance can only be carried by the "ready" sub-conscious mind.
It is not easy to accommodate because of its consequences.
It distances itself from the one who is not willing to embrace its essence.
But stamps its nearness to one willing to embrace it.
It has a slow movement of speed
But has a way of penetrating the minds of the parochial person.
(II)
Truth dwells with and in humanity
But its presence is endless
Truth is actually not sold
But has an influence over the feeble
Truth lived by involves a conscious effort
But it forms the awakening to greater consciousness.
‘’Truth is bitter’’, the saying goes
But it fights against humanity’s dis-eases
To prevent it from physical diseases
(III)
Humanity thinks of truth as being materialistic
But soon discovers the falsehood
It realizes truth cannot be measured by gold and silver
Its Worth: Simply Priceless!
(C)
See Life In Your Own Way
(i)
Deceptions try permeating my sub-conscious like a virus
Ugly events want to make me dance bad circus
I choose to see myself as the citrus
That grows in the field of peace
Never caught up by the weeds of disease
I’m hooked with creativity through my ability
To express my service to humanity
I see life my own way
Decided not to be in dis-array
It doesn’t matter the name;
Whose distraction is giving him the fame
For I know that’s his game
(ii)
I’m out for the money
but not down with the honeys
because they are monkeys
pretending to be like good mummies
I’m ahead of my time like time
That’s why you don’t see me all the time
That’s the way I see it…My own way
So, see life in your own way!
(D)
i. The Tri-angles of Being: Me, Myself and I
(i)
Me is obviously brought into this life in style
Me is given the best of attention
Me is cared for and loved by all
Me is given all life has to offer
Me is monitored through growth in health
Me is provided for all that are needed
Me is made to savour the company of people
(ii)
But:
Myself is questioning everything…
Myself’s dealings with people is an evidence…
Myself is in disparity with the Life-Bringers…
Myself is seeking for more cravings…
Myself is tired of the status quo…
Myself is being forced to embrace what is seen…
Myself is consequently getting heavily frustrated, each and every passing day…
(iii)
Nonetheless:
I am getting answers…
I am learning in character for the sake of peaceful co-existence…
I am beginning to appreciate the worthiness of the Life-Bringers…
I am exercising contentment with what I have…
I am striking a balance between getting used to existing values (and being friendly to change)…
I am being given the charge to control my life…
I am advancing in the light of ease towards progress…
In closing:
The tri-angles of being are me, myself and I.
