Curiosity is the spark

Curiosity is the spark,

illuminating mind, in the dark,

when ignorance clouded vision,

from making informed decisions, 

in our journey of life. 

Curiosity is the spark,

which always leaves its mark,

both in successes, & failures, 

every experience, are the lessons, 

letting us learn from their examples. 

Curiosity is the spark, 

inherent human desire to ask,

stimulations, of why's and what's,

opening the gates of knowledge, 

finding answers, to our problems. 

Curiosity is the spark,

opening the uncharted paths,

of discoveries, newer innovations, 

influencing, course of civilizations, 

leaving lasting impacts. 

Curiosity is the spark,

needs continued effort,& directions, 

for creating something special, 

after years of dedication, 

towards our cause.

Your every actions are manipulations

Your every action are manipulations,

how could you expect my cooperation,

when lies become the foundations, 

there's no trust, in the relations. 

You don't want genuine connections, 

but make others follow the directions, 

to satisfy your criteria of perfections, 

while others chase, your reflections. 

When mind is filled with expectations, 

how could heart, assume the positions,

of welcoming feelings, tender emotions,

kindling the love, deepening affections. 

For, you do prioritize, self interests, 

over forming bond, of mutual benefits, 

something in life are more sacred,

than demeaning them into transactions. 

Your every action are manipulations, 

trying to dominate, our conversations, 

stemmed out of your fears or suspicions, 

influenced by narratives, in modern discussions. 

Still I ask, do you really care...

It's time, for your confession!

Nothing more than this

There's development, yet with peace, 

crowd that rushes, but walk with ease,

finding moments to pause, feel the breeze,

and heart desires, nothing more than this. 

City life changes, with population density,

leaving behind villages, deserted streets,

while the towns, are mostly shifting, 

and that's what progression means. 

The arrival of modern technologies, 

boosted the pace, of upgrading facilities, 

some for necessities, others for pride,

drifting away, from the traditional lives. 

When surroundings, losing their charm,

while resources, were exploited or harmed,

everything cherished, being snatched away,

from our memories, where nostalgia remains. 

So, I would pray, hope God listens,

wishing in whispers, leave things as it is,

finding right balance, generations pleased,

and heart desires, nothing more than this...

Universe 25

Experiment conducted in the 70s,

threw deeper understanding & insights,

on effects of high population density,

through changing behaviors of mice.

For, a controlled, utopian environment, 

without predators, and ample resources, 

worked adversely on their growth,

subsequently leading to social collapse. 

Universe 25... 

It had everything, the species desired,

unlimited food, and comfortable climate,

for healthy mice to thrive & propagate, 

in various phases, of the experiments. 

It began with adaptations, (Strive phase),

then exponential growth of population (Exploit phase),

and arrived, equilibrium and decline phase,

from slowing down to complete breakdown. 

Behavioral sink... 

Where their social structure collapsed,

while pathological behaviors risen,

violence & aggression, in the males,

and females, neglecting their nests,

some withdrew, living like the hermits,

others groom, unconcerned of roles given,

as mice lose interest in mating & reproduction, 

colony become extinct, with abundant resources! 

The study was unsettling, 

and experts drew parallels,

is it confined to certain species, 

or humanity too are susceptible. 

When bestowed with abundance,

we lose purpose, lacking social role,

while high density social interactions,

create stress, with pathological behaviors. 

For, the lack of personal space,

along with unwanted attentions,

lead to violence, or withdrawals,

weakening bonds, instincts to care.

So, in age of internet & rapid urbanization, 

do we get overwhelmed, with mental isolation, 

in a life without dangers, challenges or purpose,

our society will crumble, even with abundance?

Perceptions of realities

Those who feel as victims,

Will always remain victims, 

No matter what they gained.

Those who are empowered, 

Find ways to overcome challenges, 

Regardless of their circumstances.

For, it's about our perceptions of realities. 

You've got me mesmerized

You've got me mesmerized, 

with that figure, and you smile,

each motion is so arousing, 

you have it all weaponized,

and I, would love to be victimized. 

So, bestow me with your grace,

as I listen, to those sweet voices, 

which whispers, words of praise, 

when I explore, in our embrace,

brushing hidden tender spots. 

Let me touch porcelain surface,

stroking the silken ebony strands,

with streams of pecks and kisses, 

planting throughout your body,

probing deeper into the openings. 

You will speak of my name,

moan & groan, again and again,

body twisting with pleasures,

and your hands, pulling me closer,

for intensifying the game. 

You've got me mesmerized, 

it's my turn to make you hypnotized, 

with each thrust and movements,

dance of desires, for your amusement, 

bonding with body and heart!

To keep the show going

To keep the show going,

without making it boring,

we need to present things new,

or innovate ways to introduce, 

same old stories... 

The world is vast and growing,

still, we are confined in knowing,

pursuing the similar trajectories, 

making conclusions or summaries, 

filtered with our perceptions. 

To keep the show going,

and let the revenue flowing,

many industries have improvised,

preventing goals from getting compromised,

sustain the interests of consumers. 

For, the crowds are tough, unrelenting,

every action is scrutinized, determining, 

quality & quantity, being fully extracted,

being emptied, abandoned or criticized,

until forgotten or faded from prominence. 

To keep the show going,

we lose sight of goals envisioned, 

being pulled into unfair competitions, 

where popularity triumphs contents, 

faced with changing perceptions. 

Rage bait

It's interesting to learn,

a new term added in Oxford,

as the word of year 2025,

signifying deeper concerns, 

of today's generations. 

Rage bait... 

They have become shallow,

to be scheming evil plots,

of promoting hatred or anger,

to generate views or reactions,

among vulnerable masses,

following contents or threads. 

In the quest for individual successes, 

they chose topics of maximum engagement, 

sometimes too sensitive, closer to hearts,

they pour fuel, to incite the fire,

but use claims, that were misleading,

languages that could be inflammatory,

causing arguments, receiving criticisms,

damaging discussions, but traffic is increasing. 

Rage baits... 

When one uses their influence, 

be deliberately offensive, not to persuade, 

and create situations, which were destructive, 

to the peace, without getting blamed! 

P.S -

Rage bait : Online content deliberately designed to elicit anger or outrage by being frustrating, provocative, or offensive, typically posted in order to increase traffic to or engagement with a particular web page or social media account.

Optimize

When the need arise,

or being weary, of routine guise,

our brain makes some calculations, 

to find ways, with easier conditions, 

for fulfilling tasks, in stipulated time. 

Optimize... 

In set of constraints, 

which are working as restrains, 

acting as hurdles in paths,

when we require better outcomes, 

in this journey, of our lives. 

For, conventional methods are lengthy,

while we prefer innovations & spontaneity, 

saving the resources, increase efficiency, 

letting us spare times, for activities, 

beyond the provided responsibilities. 

Optimize... 

It's part of our everyday life,

with trial & error, to maximize, 

services & profits in our work,

while minimize wastage of efforts,

saving precious time & costs. 

From individuals to the societies, 

this had led to many discoveries, 

driving businesses, providing conveniences, 

as we keep finding new avenues, 

of becoming more efficient...

Veg out...

To vegetate, like the plants,

do nothing, just soak the warmth,

being passive, with no activities,

lined in queue, for us to complete. 

Veg out... 

Casually we speak,

yet, it carries, heart's cries,

of being tired, emptied, 

embracing moments of respite. 

We could lounge on couches, 

watch some movie or series,

or lie on cozy sofas or beds,

blank thoughts, looking at ceilings. 

There's no rush, or worries,

pushing us to act in hurries,

it's a day, we ignore the calls,

from personal or professional duties. 

Veg out... 

For, we need some downtime, 

to recover, in fast-paced world,

so, don't bother, let me relax, 

and, I will have battery recharged!

Age of contents

In this modern era, we have seen,

arrays of information, being streamed,

through various channels, and forms,

we get stimulated, even overwhelmed. 

Age of contents... 

The sheer abundance is astounding, 

depending on regions, cultures & minds,

creating niche, building on the demands, riding on trends, having growth potentials. 

Rise of social media, fuelled the fire,

accessibility to internet, took it higher,

businesses thrived, brought revenues, 

regardless of values, to the societies. 

Democratic, providing people the power,

with creators, finding global audiences,

closed the distance, between perceptions,

spreading awareness, among the masses. 

Lurking in shadows, were negative consequences,

of our addiction, affecting our hearts,

detaching ourselves from responsibilities, 

becoming slaves, to platform's algorithms. 

With the advancements of civilizations, 

we have to realize, ask difficult questions,

to retain the control, of our individuality 

rein on impulses and take advantages.... 

Of age of contents!

Strategy rules

We wonder, in this world,

why good fails, while evil triumphs,

not in stories, where ideals shine,

but in realities, we see the mights,

of ones indulging in corruptions. 

Every leader, bears the weight,

of misuses, underhanded techniques, 

in their quest, of attaining powers,

there are compromises, and conflicts, 

where innocents become victims. 

The weak reign, while strong serves,

when deception plays, by cunning leaders,

no sacrifices retained in the memories,

but promotions, of fabricated stories,

remain in the psyche of populace. 

Being honest, nice and sincere,

make us feel good in principles, 

but those willing to take advantages,

rise in positions, achieving successes, 

arousing envy, respect and suspicions. 

Strategies rules, irrespective of characters, 

neither justice nor morality, provides power,

but planning does, with swift implementation, 

when wasted time, in hesitations or deliberations, 

we lose out, in this game of dominations.

If you keep eyes open

There's so much to learn,

with insights & the wisdom,

from the activities in surroundings,

If we keep eyes open. 

The elements which sustains,

body functions of us humans, 

contain answers to our queries, 

about life's various problems. 

From earth to sky, water to air,

they are part of something special, 

coming together, breathing life,

into collections of inanimate materials. 

And we observed, since ancient times,

constituents of earth, arrangements of stars, 

finding meanings, making advancements,

sharing the results, to future generations. 

The more we explored, more we discovered,

from examples of plants, trees, & animals,

when we valued, curiosities to thrive, 

And witnessed, with open eyes!
