messy fruits

hunched over in the lowlights my pride lays shattered at my knees as my greedy mouth takes and takes the sweetest nectar stains my appendages delighted and scared its the closest I've come to sinning

[prakriti2066]

Witness

I wish I knew how to fix this I wish I had the courage to fix it  I wish I was cruel enough to walk away I can’t escape I can’t improve I just am A witness to the fire I sparked  That burns me and my forest 

[prakriti2066]

je t'aime a la folie

I want to carve out your chest And make myself a home Squeezing and choking on your ribs I wish to replace your heart, an easy feat Truly how difficult can that be Making it flutter for everyone but me <3

Fingerprints, loofah and covered mirrors

I hate my body I hate hate hate my body It is not me I am not my body scrub scrub  Where are my exit options I am not this lump of flesh  scrub scrub A stained lump of flesh I was to be pristine Untouched, unstained scrub scrub Maybe if I scrub hard enough The fingerprints will wash away Or perhaps I’ll scrub myself out of this body and be free SCRUB SCRUB Maybe if I scrub hard enough I’ll accept this body Uncover my mirrors and Finally see myself for me.

The X(s) On My Citizenship

I live in a progressive world,

(His) progressive world

And I’m merely Her’

My existence is dwindling

It’s not even worth a mention

Who cares if I gave my life away

Who cares if I carried the world on my neck

My existence dwindles

And I’m merely Her’

In a “progressive” world.

[prakriti2066]

Shoulders

Slumping and touching the gates of hell Losing their battle against gravity Burdened by this incessant guilt Defying human anatomy

[prakriti2066]

Bystander

The world crashes and tumbles

 Everything and nothing is on fire

Chaos

There is so much chaos.

I am the perpetrator

I am the victim

I stand by and watch myself get destroyed

A bystander in my own mind.

[prakriti2066]

Lilith

The same mud, the same hands One is shunned, the other lives on untainted Separated from light, the dark eats her away Eyes glowing with revenge She whispers in the ears of the children  Dragging them far far away Leaving them just as tainted And then she laughs, a loud hearty laugh As she watched the children of the first drift  Away from the light.

[prakriti2066]

Intruder

I’ve got a person in my head

His name is intruder and he runs around

screaming, kicking and making a mess

and i’m left with a pounding head

I’ve tried to leave him

he won’t go

the only solution it seems,

the well being of my favorite branch.

[prakriti2066]

Apocalypse

The end of the world

Do you not sense it?

Its right here

The promise of a new beginning

The promise of a conclusion

Armageddon 

The end of the world.

[prakriti2066]

Autumn

Tread on the carpet of colors

Paint your soles their hues

Dance to their rhythm 

And breathe in the blues.

[prakriti2066]

Hunger

It's not enough It'll never be enough There's an insatiable need in us all And one day everything will perish And only the hunger will prevail

[prakriti2066]

Moon

I wish to be one with the moon

Stained with bruises

But like the moon

I wish to accept and outshine them

[prakriti2066]

Learning From The Barefoot Movement

- Bunker Roy

Barefoot College is a college in Rajasthan, India, established by Bunker Roy with the mission of training the villagers to become solar engineers, doctors, dentists and artisans. Barefoot's impact are not just limited to India but also to villages of Afghanistan and Africa. Since their establishment in 1972, the Barefoot College has worked in 96 countries over the world accomplishing 14 of the 17 sustainable goals.

Barefoot College

We create solutions that let nature and people prosper.

This TED Talk has instilled many things on my mind. The first that education is not the only determinant of life skills. Empowering rural people is best possible through training and workshops. Local knowledge is the base for modern advancement and must be acknowledged.

What I would like to share amongst my peers is that real problems can only be understood if one steps out of their comfort zone. Not to forget that the contribution required for the development of the society is a civic responsibility.

After watching this TED talk I have been thinking of ways to empower and train illiterate people in my country Nepal.

Permanence

Tell me my dearest

Would you still love me, if I

Were not me anymore?

[prakriti2066]

Blessing of Death

Wouldn’t it be sweet

The liberty from pain

From fear and attachments

Drifting around in nothingness

Like the souls of the dead

The blessing of death.

[prakriti2066]

Permanence

Dearest, Don’t you worry Spring comes after winter Dawn after the night And you know I love you But nothing is permanent Nothing.
