The Poetry of Possibility

 Political Poems by Aman Aman 

6.

The powerful and rich sent us into nothing.

Into minds abstraction.

Endless endless.

In the end to find a broom.

Or to find tools old bygone.   

Nothing new to clean shits.

Huts for us.

For themselves they would build strong mansions and bungalows.

All at a cheap price.

Enough for everyone again to toil.

Landless farmers too toil the same.

For the poor there would be dirt laden houses.

Stinking sewages.

As if the rich and powerful don't. The middle classes left with choices.

But everybody want to live in mansions.

Nobody knows a healthy toils price.

Technology only to replace men.

Those men left to toil again.

Whence come your wealth?

Is all market?  

11.

Things I cannot speak

I cannot speak about socialism freely

I cannot speak why I love for the sake of love.

I cannot speak what man has done to man and woman in history.

I cannot speak of beliefs gone old.

I cannot speak of how many kids have the imperialist war killed.

I cannot speak of the nation's name who did it.

I cannot speak why I am and not a nationalist.

I cannot speak of things I cannot do.

I cannot speak of laws I didn't break.

I cannot speak of the cost of meal I had as a middle class man.  

I cannot speak why poverty is not needed.

I cannot speak why wars are not needed.

I cannot speak of the reason of social diseases.

I cannot speak about the mixture of Dadaism and religion.

I cannot speak of the remains of dead memories and dead bodies.

Let's speak for the toilers in every field.

Let's speak of the farmers, and workers.

Let's speak of modern slaves.

Those who have to listen to their household masters.

Let's speak not just to give voice to them.

But also we need to fight with them.

For they have kins too.

Why are the farmers and workers committing suicides?

While the capitalist asphyxiate you with their wealth.

Why do we have a generation of sick desk workers?

Let's speak also about 4 hour day work?

Why is there underemployment, while others toil relentlessly.

There must be something wrong about capitalist logic

Why do we eat food without nutrition?

While the landlords fields remain fallow.

Let's speak about the toilers in every field.

 

25.

A tirade and physical attack is going against communism.

Some say that equality cannot be attained.

Children! Cannot be treated equally.

Everything has been decided.

Some will live in mansions, others in flats and huts.

Many are there on the pavement.

Feelings can only arise from actions and not love.

And then there are people who say 'why' are there wars?

Peace is the only eternal thing!

But violence can be done in multifarious ways.

They exist both in a 'subject' and through objects.

Hearts bleeding for stoical expressions.

Only for love.

But for rare connoisseurs a plaything.

Art's deception does not lie in representation but in becoming rare!

Everyone desires to communicate.

Not just through objectivity.

But also as a finite subject who can think.

Bare existence is not life!

It's death in disguise.

27.

Till relativity heaves as a human emotion,

Till the objects can be only seen in the light of human relativity.

Till shelter, health, food becomes immanent.

Till the sun and the moon are same for everyone.

Till the dogs left on the road live by plenty.

Till we don't have gang wars.

Till nations fall into love with each other.

Till ownership of the means of production vanish.

Till we have ample light for everyone who are drowning.

Till we have sufficient emotions for those who are sick.

Till the beauty of mermaids and mermen can be seen by everyone.

We all will be magical realists till then.

 

33.

Brothers.

Brothers are not just who fight for your ego.

Brothers are also those who see your weakness.

And fight within you.

I have brothers in the whole world.

Brothers who are sick.

Brothers who are impoverished.

Brothers whose inner light has been destroyed.

Brothers who are fighting fascism.

I am with my brothers.

May your inner light guide you.

 

37.

Bombs

We're living in times when bombs have been necessitated.

It's not a mistake of Russia or Ukraine,

It's a problem of normalizing authoritarian structures.

Tolstoy gave an example,

When we authorize a single man,

against humanity,

then things go wrong.

It's not simply Hamas or the Israeli state.

It’s not only America and the West.

It's not only Indians who are slowly becoming nazis.

Our past can be known.

Greatness does not only lie in the past.

But in an even future.
