Blood as an Anaesthetic
Lo and behold
Those who trade in serpent poison
Aggregate all discontent and contradictions
into a blind age fundamentalism
Emotions laid upon
The picture driven fabricated wisdom
disclosed behind the mask
No hurt to people’s feelings
Mastermind f
iltered contingency
Vain effort if others fail to follow
There’s always still one more solution
That kind of rhetoric can now become a deadlock
As benefits and certainties and
wishful thinking compromise the ends
Soak the sand with shattered hopes
Then squeeze it for the last drop of complacency
Survival in the hands of spurious gods
They keep asking for commitment
Shall we live our lives with fingers on the trigger?
Uh, are you morbid?
Now burn your Fukuyama books instead of oil
Feel relief from tears that fears will not reveal
Grab your cameras and tanks
Uphold the largely abused dichotomy
Will the unrest lead us to another peace?
Refocus on the inside
Compromise the ethics
Make blood an anaesthetic
There’s always still
one more solution – the last one
Of Elements and Men
Time faded photographs and postcards
Grand artwork of geomorphology
Where prodigious waves negotiate their way
In cold white mist and eery silence
Human presence so weak
Embraced by the force of nature
Formidable furious structures
Where adrenaline is no adventure
Secluded from the social turmoil
Resistant to pushes of history
Ably working the untamed flows
In congenital regularity
The passage ways among the heavy waves
Where freedom is a choice and sacrifice
Sometimes a risk and sometimes a constraint
But always a responsibility
Adrift the twists of mighty streams
Heritage buried by the modern comfort’s energy
Silent Weapons for Silent Wars
High ...
Above the valleys of blossoming paradise
Intriguing paths of Hassan ibn Sabbah
The eagle’s nest perspective of humanly affairs
Fascinating form of mysticism applied
Poison dipped daggers
Innocence and blood
Foundations of the sublimest
Machination craft
Essence of high spirited
Devotion and desire
Ingenious progression
Of those who worship fire
High ...
Articulation of enlightenment
A shortcut to the ultimate believe
A readiness to sacrifice
There’s no contesting the order’s sovereignty
Awaken!
Political manipulators, assassins
Inspirited, vindicative
Sacred dispositions
Blind allegiance imperative
Threatening, yet inspiring
Unparallelled direction
The ultimate balance
Of destruction and creation
In mystifying haze they rise
To uphold their vindication
Undercover missionaries
Faithful to the foundation
Transcending the duality
Of self proclaimed ills of morality
Observing the freedom of spirit
Nietzsche said
Modern day philosophy to see beyond the schemes
A vibrant sign in history, a tenet to aspire
The harmony of contradictions justifies the means
Inveterate conviction of those who worship fire
