Right Wing Thoughts.

Right Wing Thoughts.

When we were fledged,
Our right wing spread first;
The left lagged behind.
Being always right,we thought,
The left is bereft of the might of right.
We are sticklers to well set norms,
And not losers with liberal storms.
Our one target orientation owns us.
We do not look side ways to add weight.
Our soul is stronger,not being secular.
Our own values govern us,not others'.
Demagogues call us democrats.
Rebels keep telling,we are rigid.
Carnival pets, call us conservatives.
Carpet baggers cast calumny against us,
Calling us communal with majority guts.
All this acrimony and all these aspersions,
Not just because, we are always right,
But because we strongly believe
That might alone can never be right.

The Pen is Mightier,but........


Fix not the horse behind the cart.
Sense should never lead,from behind,
The preconceived precept of right.
Today the alphabet counts more
Than the attitudes in creativity.
Beware of the ruling arms more than
The  pen- turned keyboard, with its symbols.
Rightly deliver what is rightly conceived.
One wrong can not set right another.
Deeper wounds should look for healing
Rather than hurting,to cause further wounds.
Let the labour pains of creativity be genuine.
A warrior born of valorous unison hits not
With a rusted sword, raised to infect the enemy.
Fight the brute powers,flaying issues with a flair.
By shunning the itch for sensations, through sinning.
It is not that the mob is meant only for filthy flavor.
Create better taste for the crowd with a care
For the alphabet you choose to project,
And the visuals that you upload for wider reach.
Let not the words and visuals mar the pang of birth.
A creator is a stallion and a palomino for posterity
Not a still born child to be struck down for burial .
