Is this how it is?

It is
How a sugar grain slowly dissolves in water
How an idea reveals itself to an honest, lost creator;
How a window pane kisses the breeze after a decade
How sleep descends on heavy eye lids with confidence.

It is
How the world amazes itself through the ways it spins
How every prologue learns to wait until it begins
How the first strumming resonates with the being
How sunshine instills hope over a dark monsoon morning.

May be this is how the green grass feels
After the final battle in the Gladiator's dream
As a full moon glides over the sea-side evening
May be this is how the white sand breathes.

Where error errs : Women

As you must know, every woman is a miracle. Women truly have completed me. They have given me life, sex and death. Really, what else is there to existence? To be honest, life would be so much of a tragedy without the tragedies. I would never have truly understood relativity. Length, you see, is a relative parameter (large or small). It depends upon the observer; on what she has observed till then. Funnily enough, the same statement can be made about intellect.
Moving on, I wonder how much time does a man devote to think about labor pain. Men, as you women like to say, are assholes. We surely don't empathize a lot with women. For example, we don't understand how it feels when an asshole leaves a woman for a younger /sexier / prettier one. Would it feel the same when a woman leaves a man for an older/fitter/richer one? But how would I know? I have only been loved; and fucked; and fucked up.
I thank women for all the muscles that I have on me and all the fat that I have lost. Oh wait! Where are the muscles? Sorry, that was me trying to show off. I thank women for all the fat I have lost. My fat got so ashamed, so ashamed of existence that food actually left me. But I am not a fat kid anymore. So that should be celebrated.
Truly, women. You brought me up. I am indebted to you. It's only because of you that I have grown up today. What an empowering feeling it is, isn't it; to be able to see through a person? To know that hope is irrelevant? To realize that innocence is a hit-me toy, meant only for the kids! Kids must grow up, right?
Yes, women. You have completed me. I am finally a man in every sense of the word. The boy has his own middle finger up his ass.

May you make more men out of boys. May you be empowered. Fuck gender equality. Men are weak. You deserve to rule. So show us the light.

But isn't it too dark down there?

Away from the ridge

Seasons, like pages of a romantic horror novel,

Turn yellow over the green, as white turns on black

A city has grown on me and outgrown itself

Lanes, sickles and vehicles crumple into voids of fame.

You would listen to me when surrounding waterfalls

Would cascade into a myth about long lost butterflies;

In an evening, which drenches itself in search of an alibi

Each raindrop will belong to you, each would be mine.

And thus in such a world where realities cease to exist

I roam around, free, of you and me, of monotonous creeks.

The moon shines pleasantly, with a hot-spot over the ridge

The spot might be a volcano for all I know; who gives a shit?

Political or not?

What is Polity? It is a form of civil government. It is a noun. It also refers to a constitution. It can be regarded as a reflection of organized society. It is basically, in other words (more suited for the commoner), a set of policies to dictate the lives of a collection of individuals. Loosely speaking, Polity is a consensus.
So here comes the question.
What does it mean to be a citizen? A citizen votes. But what does he vote for? Is it for the rule of the land? Is it for an ideology? Is it for lethargy? Or is it for individualism?
Let us then analyze each of these issues.

Rule of the land : Land is not merely the piece of earth which is surrounded by water on all sides. Land, in the present world is surrounded by lines. Unlike water which is a physical quantity, lines are imaginary. So does it naturally establish the fact that we are only living in a make-believe world? Are we?
Let's ponder for a while on what these lines are. To a large extent, these lines represent what can be called "consensus" (conning of the senses?). So when a line is drawn on a piece of paper, a modern day land comes into existence. Now each land has its own laws (and in-laws!). Stretching my jugglery a bit further, one might then ask, what about the outlaws? More on this later.
When an election takes place it asks the citizens within the respective lines to give their "opinion". Now what is opinion? Here comes the clash. Opinion represents individualism. The process of voting at least on the surface (or actually inherently) respects "diversity". Then as the government arrives in the scene, it makes or upholds the laws; laws for the society, laws for the common, laws for one, laws for all! No matter how novel the idea of an election is, a deeper thought provokes the question of how fragile the concept actually might be.

Ideology : First and foremost : Idea.
Ideology is the study of ideas. Like any study, it is a research. Shouldn't then the question arise, is an ideology just something a person believes in? The way I would like to proceed on this is the following : Ideology is a set of thoughts, a collection of information that requires processing. So when a citizen is fed certain sets of issues, he has the choice of being rational and analytical. Normally, various groups present their points of view (which we loosely call ideologies). But a "political party" has got nothing to do with ideology. It might have everything to do with ideas though. So again, when we talk of ideology, it is about the research that an individual has to ultimately perform, provided with the data sets of ideas. These ideas mainly deal with the issues of the society (and hence the collection). But when you cast your vote, you are supposedly publishing your research.

Lethargy : The central idea of an election process is about choosing a representative. The natural selection process deals with the thought process of whether a candidate is good enough for the job or not. We generally criticize the representatives we choose. These people are supposed to take care of each and every "societal" problem. So we choose an individual to work for the collective. Doesn't this represent lethargy in its purest form? If ultimately, the power of decision lies not in a referendum but with an individual, how is it fundamentally different from monarchy? May be an election is an example of the most collective lethargy of individuals.

Individualism : I vote because I have the power to vote. I select because I have the power to select. I criticize because I have the power to criticize. I condemn because I have the power. But why do I agree? Does my agreement stem from logic or does it stem from the above three points? A religious society is much less individualistic than a scientific one. Why? Is this the thin line between arts and science? Religion is philosophy. It renders itself open to interpretation. Surely it incorporates a few scientific nuances here and here. But it strives to jump above logic. Sadly, the universe is built on logic. 0 and 1. This is where art differs. It speaks of the continuum, the hidden grey.
On the other hand, science is based on logic. One cannot interpret science.

Religion can be established. Science has to be proven. Science is the perfect outlaw.

So the basic question is, can a person be apolitical? Yes, only if he is bereft of senses or if he has been truly incorporated in the con-sensus.

Anyone else is political.
