vidhatha(god,fate………?) among fours

decision

other method?
In the
middle of play is very much delayed
Rules can’t
be changed
People will
thinkhe is afraid
Will take
each leaf one by one
Sees and

104) should
be touched:
“you have to
touch people”-------bronowski
Read write
draw sing
Teach what ever you do
Should touch
people
If not
touched useless
What ever
done
Hands touch
fingures touch
Talks touch
smile also touches
Without
touching what ever is done what
Each wave
from where did it begin
When did it
begin
How did it
go
It(wave)
won’t stop without touching bank
Surely
touches
Those who
have foldedand sit
Pained by
sorrows
by
deoression and sorrow who are hiden siting
who are hard
poison like stone
should be
touched softly
words are
not mere words
sentences
are not sentences also
in each one
there are feels
it is luck
of that pesrson wgo gets who givess
even air
also touches trees
and branches
silence
touches words

my memory smoothly
let there be
river let winter snow melt in it
let there be
landl et milk filled crop bunch(thene)
let there be
hill making all beyond beautiful
let there be
forest keeping our mind vast(deep)
one who
laughs to to talk and talk is music
who gives
meaning to talk is music
enough for
ever that that much
why do you
talk on one day only
if today is
lost as though not another day exists
as touugh
another(innina?.......) day is today only
has become
evening I should gosee
pathless
path I must walk
wheather

up to
non returning turn

106) time
sense(time knowledge):
Timesensed
be far yourself
Don’t come
to our friendship
Tell future
of word to world
Let us not
listen to it
When is
difficulty when is birth death
When is dishonour
When we bring on ourselves only
Fearheld
enviroment(atmosphere)
Who has seen
tomorrow?
When is star
fall
Will it rain black white cloud
When is
janjhavaath(…………?) in ocean?
If all are
known before only
Where is
wonder where is wonder
Where is joy
of getting fruit
Where
is worry of having lost all
In this tree
how many are fire insects?
If told much
it fills my mind

107)condition:
You will not
keep quiet for a moment-be quiet foa moment
Somebody
told, if you keep quiet world will also keep quiet
kept quiet
for a minute without doing anything
Without
thinking in mind also
What free
Yawning cat
was like that only
drop fallen
from leaf was in sky
vision about
to go to see somebody else remaned in half
rised wave
became stagnant(silent)
all where
how was freezing like that only
birds about
to fly also becoming firm in sky
train within
tunnel and it’s whistle also
there only
few days
back I had read-that memory is now standing in mind
one town
to that town
hit one sleep curse-it like snow covers little only
tea stall
fellow glass lifting hand stood as it is
those who
were siting waiting waiting only
in middle
path of paper boy cycle
stoping
all vehiches
stop
the hand of
one who has lifted thuruf (………?).is like
that only
like
chess players falling in long thought
frozen pond
on it’s surface
no childern
playing
at botom
fishes are ice piece
how many
years like this?
,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,end,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,
1o8)poetry:
His birth
place is not knownplace of death is not known
Can’t say he
lived in this house only
His life
history is hiden in dark
Still as
though nothing is necessary
He has left
suficient poetries and gone
By that only
we recognise poet
True,that
itself is enough I feel
bad luck, I
haveno such chance to me now
my birth
place,studied school,,held job
existing
house are all recorded.in same way
my openion
about many public incidents
can’t be
wiped of what ever is done
another
incarnation is not possible in this life
as though
heard everything poetry godess tells:
it is wrong
for you to understand like this
poetry
pushes back all remaining things
when it
speaks other anything can’t speak
tone of
poetry itself is of different base
poetry like
a beauty of other town shining in
sandy(market)
showing body
disappears
those who
hold her path nothing is seen
apart from
shop lines of bead products
her memory
only troubles.is that much not enough?
,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,end,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,
1o9)manthras(sacred
syllables):
in that
language available very ancient
poetries are
two
one writen
for release of one
khydi(arrested,jailed…………..?)
another for
cure of horse’s lame(kuntu)
both manthras
were to invite ancients gods.
Did
arrested(khydi) got relieved?
Hosre cured?
In order to
happen how many times
How
many times chant these manthras?
Still it is
a mistake to imagine relation between
Khydi(arrested)
Still both
of them in front of us
As though
khydi(jailed) becoming horse rider
Running away
in in forest moon light how to not to see
In that play
of dark and light
In same way
watch(security) group of jail
Holding bow
arrow sword
Will it not
fall behind and chase?this time
Enquieryless
punishment of head chaping is sure
Manthras
won’t tell anything about all these things
They praise
greatness of godesses
And in that
magic of appreciation make us to fall
He also
might be successful in escaping
But still in
tension of being caught
Remaining
longevity passes
mainly moon
light means fear to him
time
has passed after death of horse

Town hen

People rise

110) naked
and naked(betthale and nagnathe):
If dark
naked
If day naked
Or vice
versa
Who knows
more than this?
Artists and
philosophers know
Fascinated
all those who removed clothes
To
sculptures of garden,and bar girls
We hanged in
same way
At their
feet base we expressed our problems
We were
waiting for their hands smearing our
head
At end to
usthinking menekins are enough went to
wander shop
What a pose what a beauty each one different posture
One lass
curving neck one lssopening arms
One more
simply teasing
Each one has
simhendra nadhyama(raga)
Same beauty
in back also as in front
To their
saree border is attached rate slip
To us saree
was not needed
we needed
technique of giving life to them
for that
only this much all

14)to artist
who has held brush in hand will have no total sense of figure which he does.as
brush runs picture is formed..like that onlystory or poetry
15)why

argument one kalpa (epoch) passed
if thought, it is completed one more started

who have names of helen or elen they will leaving their husbands
and run away
with lovers is one argument
all those
who have names of helen or elen they will leaving their husbands
and will not
run away with lovers is one argument!

113) tie
(bind):
What we have
to do if there is no gomala

grazing field)we have to import from foreign
In that

Where wher
hom much plants should put
How many
cattles we have to rear
These are
all left to us
Telling this
one will
go to bring water pipetie him to pole that much hurry is
not good
If there is
no hill what we have to do
We have to
lift and bring from where it exists
Wheather it
should to east or west
how much
height shoud it be is one cloud needed
these are
all left to us
what is
important is poets siting on it’s tip
should write
poetry
as soon as
told one went to bring pen and paper

songs also:

people goingfull function hall(assembly hall) is empty
what I am thinking alone here?
What
happened here?
What
discusion?as poet elizebath poet tells
Sound means
air
To go whwre
ever mind goes
Still
some why they are echoing in me
When all
were speaking she was not speaking
Later when
she lifted fingure
Stoped
talking
As though
whole world waiting to listen to her words
Became
silent
I was seing
Window doors
outside trees
Later one
she asked me:
To you more
than meaning did beauty more ?
Are you mere
beauty fascinator?
In your
beautymeaning,in meaning beauty
I found true
In each lass
(female) poets who have found beloveds
If not so what kind of people?
How to grasp
how to burn
This only is
first and last path
You have to
understand beautiful ladies
What if
sorrowd later-leave sorrow to us
We shall
also write sorrowful songs
In our each poetries nobody will sorrow this much
,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,end,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,
117)sand crown:
To each poet
exists his own
Lightning
thunder thunderbolt
Pollination
or touch of touchstone(parushamani,sparshamani)
Then he sees in dew drop tears of heaven
But what by
that much?
His desert
is waiting there
He should go
there also
Where there
is no path forest and land(town)
united earth
He has
forgoten time itself in his goalless
behavior
Tired in hunger and thirst,footwears tearing
Boils have
arised in feet
God,why why
he shouts
It is not
heard to god,god will not see it
He is in
godless epoch
This is a
private journey,no duration no end
Withou seing
people’s face without hearing sound
It has
become practice
If sympathy
is given to get
O valley,o
hill,o insects
See see this
he tells
speech echos
from sand ocean
it’s waves
rise aand beat making aii to drown
he has
fallen on sand bank
is there one
form found did one touch came to
experience?
He thinks
after many years:
To that much
of privacy how to give words?
Why to give
words?let sand sea be like that only
Let sand
waves be rising only in my mind
It is
better to not to open doors of few doors
My sand crown
who will carry
I have to
bear this much of weight(burden)
