Caravan of a Nomad

Anarchist : I shall continue in the same post rather than adding another one. This is one of the product of what I was reading . A set of political ideologies , out of which Anarchism was one.Although , this one goes a little beyond propagating a belief. It's just an attempt to read the mind of an outlaw , on the brink of a crime in the eyes of the state but what to him is a revolution.

Outcome of Mundanity :I had given up on writing as such . Not been doing it for so long . Yesterday I did tried to pen down something of worth . Tried for at least two hours . Deleted at least two poems , which I wrote and didn't like . Then I left it and went to sleep. But I could hardly sleep . As I stared out of Window , some thoughts came which made me want to write again . Though I didn't like the outcome as there was so much in my mind to be covered in one piece of poem . It came out as a rather jumbled up integration of random thoughts. But since it was after a long time , that I could write something that made sense , I decided to to put that in my blog .


Anarchist .




Swift as a horse on the racecourse ,
Keen as a dog , on a trail .
He was moving with hasty steps ,
The movement he believes mustn’t fail.

He has been waiting all these years,
His heart is pounding but he stays strong .
The cold winter is unleashing a chill ,
But the thrill in his heart is making him sweat.

The time has come when the lesson be learned ,
The server has served , and has served enough.
The revolution is knocking on the door ,
Retribution is a word that must be heard.


He has suffered and since wore the hatred,
the hate that cripple his once righteous soul.
The hunger and cold has made him rough ,
Weak have died , he has been told.

He doesn’t believe in the rule of the law ,
As laws were made by the people with flaw .
He believes in his right to follow his heart ,
The moment has arrived to put it to test.

He doesn’t believe in the word of god ,
His god had died a slow silent death .
If he can watch children die of hunger,
He says such a god , is more of a wretch.

He doesn’t believe in Left or right ,
The lust to rule consumes them all .
The rule of the people is never in sight ,
To rule out the rule is his taken vow.

He has arrived , where the stage was set ,
With people having gathered , to listen to his foe.
Sun has been hiding behind the clouds ,
As if afraid to look to what might unfold.

Taking a deep breath , he recedes in the crowd .
Wiping the sweat off his palms ,
He looks to the skies , the one last time ,
It won’t take long  Mother , to be in your arms.

He looks at his watch , as his man take the steps ,
With the applause of the blinded sheep’s sounding out loud.
He checks his pocket  and holds the weapon tight ,
As the man on the stage takes a bow .

Swift like a light , he picks on his weapon ,
And shoots at the man three times in a row .
Crying out revolution , as he makes his kill ,
Among the shrieks and sounds that followed the fall .

As death followed in bullets , he smiled to his last breath ,
Quenching the pain , by the joy of his deed .
Later in times to some he was a villain ,to many a hero
But to us an Anarchist who bore the seed.

 Outcome Of Mundanity






It was a day like any other day ,
There was nothing that happened , there was nothing to say .
I wondered alone , as I landed on the bed ,
Isn’t this routine , is what I dread.

How many days , are just so alike ,
When we all say that we have a short life.
Why can’t each day be an event to remember ,
laden with doubt  , but not dreary or somber.

A hour hand is ticking , so is me ,
We both start together and end where were we.
Time has changed but we stay the same ,
Spending the day , in the circle of frame.

As I stared out through the shabby little window ,
watching  the clouds ,gently moving across.
I made out a face of all those patterns ,
And it was smiling and playful , with a childish glow.

I envy those vapors that makes these clouds ,
Being carried across over  the flight  of the wind,
Not knowing where they will reach when they chose to be the rain ,
Being sprayed over the gods , or flowing in a stream.

As I look around , I see all these people ,
So happy and contend with what they do .
They have chosen a road , en route to their deaths ,
Comfort of the journey , is the consolation they know.

I want to cross over , the paths and the routes ,
And see the world in its best and the worst.
I don’t want shade , on the road of my travel ,
It kills my shadow, the only one I trust.

Thought is nice, but could not get the sum and substance of it. What is the main idea in the theme? Now even if this appeared as a jumbled up thoughts,its well written,b`cause some thoughts appear just like that.
As in the word of Lord Tennyson ,”Time marches on, but memories stays, torturing silently, the rest of our days.

Well the main idea i guess is not much tough to grasp for this piece . its against the monotony of everyday routine. the person who wrote it , is tired of his routine and wants freshness and unpredictability in life . Where their are laid out designs for his day , like the drops of rain , who are not aware where they will fall and what will become of them . The writer , also sees people around , who finds comfort in monotony.They dont want to reach out and see new things and get out of their comfort zone. That's the life the writer despises . Hope it's kinda clear now .

Serenity to accept the things you cannot change,Courage to change the thing you can and wisdom to understand the difference between the two....
Anarchist is really a thought provoking piece. If you have written this on your own,am stunned!! superb piece! no doubt you are widely read and have a strong hold on political ideologies.
