We live in a diverse world, a world of opposites.It creates noise.We contradict every aspect of our existence. But if we didn't, would it be a better place? An assembly line is not what life should be, yet the chaos of differences brings unrest.Being peaceful and co-existence is key, the question is how? How do we quieten the noise and be happy? What can we do to make the world a better place? I read a poem a long time ago by Carol, and these lines are inspired by them.

There are many colours, white, black,brown,yellow, but what unites us is Red.

The colour of blood. The same colour which runs in you, runs in me as it does with 7 billion people. 

And Until we find aliens with blue blood, this is all we have, in the only planet we know, with the only life we have.

Why then do we differentiate one human being from the other? Join me in this tough but 

fascinating experience to explore ways we could make a change.

Amore is a poem inspired by listening to Martin Carthy's arrangement, which Simon and Garfunkel turned to an epic Canticle/Scarborough Fair mix, it inspired me to pen a few lines of my own. Though originally a medieval English ballad with unknown origins, it revolves around a stranger visiting the town of Scarborough carrying a message of impossible tasks for the lover to perform.Carrying on with the same essence of love and war as a metaphor for what we have and have not, what we miss forever and what we treasure within us. A heart full of memories and a mind full of realities..I wrote these few lines as an ode to soldiers who lost their loved ones, and in some sense, fight the battles outside and within us....

Citylights is a poem - written watching raindrops fall on the dim lit streets, a passing thought as we walk by those city lights , each one with a story to tell, each one with a memory to sell... just a few abstract lines ... 

What could possibly be common between His Holiness, Aspirin and AI?
