(One)
Desire is ‘The Sire’, the father of existence. Thoughts conceive them and action promotes them. They are orgasmic gonadal delights! From automobiles to a zephyr, desire is the zen connecting the heart with the mind. They come into being to impress and to express. I desire to remain a winner!
(Two)
Object of desire.
The object and the objective
together win hearts
like the yin and yang
are one, though two parts!
The lust of a shape
The love for a shade
Are not a mere drape
They are the grade!
Thus words in thoughts
Are the champs
And in lots
Walk the desire ramps!
(Three)
A shape that meanders through my being when I’m awake. A touch that even in my dreams arouses me. A sound floating through my senses as the queen of existence. Am I talking of a mere object? An object and an objective. Both. A discovery. She is mine. My wife!
(Four)
Simplicity. A one word answer to my desire! It may be a mobile phone or an excursion to discover the world… the simpler it is in execution, the better. Simple to use, simple to understand, simple to savour… simply simple. Simplicity is what I desire.
(Five)
Colours and complexity are what attract me.
The cost matters not but I’d love if it is free!
The joy of hi-tech
Is not a speck
If it comes with colours and its free!
(Six)
I desire the worst for the worst and the best for the best. ‘An eye for an eye’, as the wise Ravana said. No good comes of the undeserved getting rewarded. This is the way natural selection should have worked. This is the path the future shall trod!
(Seven)
No? ki YA?… nokia, if we need a single word for human nature. While buying anything, while job-hunting, while mate-searching, in fact almost every moment is dominated by desire and No? ki YA? (nokia)… and that’s what makes life interesting.
(Eight)
No holds barred.
‘Desire’ is starred!
It is big, unquenchable…
Not an untouchable!
Want, wish and need:
Best words indeed!
Good things start with ‘I’
If you have an eye!
And I will not lie:
I need the sky!
