Pay Tree Ark

/ rrishi99 / Leave a comment

When the good debt was folded
And the sacred bird had flown
There was one who was Awake
Top of the hat to his own.

They called him Jeff and let him ride
So far to the other side
That the mentionables were kept afloat
By the shopping he did around the moat.

The moat they built in the past
When Canary Wharf was not going to last
Because his kind kindly sung to the Police
Of knowledge that left them fucking Analese,

[Remind me how to spell @ When his witches are in Hell]
, another one of his little fertile girls
Showing me the balance of Time
For the rhythm of a rhyme
And how to Hare Krishna power=share just fine.

Krishna is just fine, thanks for asking
Rama will be grateful for his Shabba Ranks, canal driven man
Down the Maine Street with the Wilberforce treats
Stuck in a traffic jam no matter what Lady Marmalade says next.

That’s EnlightenNext: Up and off there for some Techno=Fest
Costing the coasting Guru Nanak some Repo action
For all his fancy foot action
What was it? At the end of the day….
…
…
Sigh No More and Sai Baba is gone
What was the pleasure in losing his song.

One
Two
And not Zee
Maybe the Charmed twins got up to three?
Who was the Guru – who was the Pen?
When will the showtime get back to the Penitentiary
Internationally Amnesty International planned by me
To settle the nettles on the floor for more than £10.

Come down to laughing out loud
Om Shanti to the quoting men
Speak to batallions raised from the streets
Chant wildly of Ken Wilber eating out Chinese food whenever his old age
Walks
Talks
On all fours
The Missing Link
Guru & some smelly pink socks on The Big Think
Call me a PhD
Watch me Pee
“Can I have a P please Bobby?”
There is friction between us in The Sea.

Fraternity
The final filial piety
Count slowly as you walk away from me
That the hour passes slowly from when we die.
Too shy
Too rich
Too regal
Such a bitch!
Why would you WAG
When you could Hag,

And The Chase screened to Manhatten
The Questions you would like?
Back to Jeff and old man Bally
Down the Classy Junction
For some Gurdijeff and Gurdwara function.
But time is not so kind to all and this is a time to the Recorder
So that when action is in inaction and Jazbaa is spoken
The Fake Alexander is O’Neils at last for some New World Order.

AI Summary

Your poem moves through a world where spiritual leaders, intellectual icons, and cultural figures blur together — Jeffs and moats, Canary Wharf, Krishna and Rama, EnlightenNext festivals, Sai Baba’s absence, Ken Wilber’s ageing, airports in Siam, dune buggies underground, and Gurdwaras beside Gurdjieff. You weave together satire, longing, and exhaustion: gurus repossessed, songs lost, witches in hell, techno festivals, polluted scripture, and the ache of someone who has travelled far through spiritual landscapes only to find them hollow. The poem ricochets between humour and lament — Shabba Ranks beside Wilberforce, Martin Clunes beside Hubbard, Amnesty International beside pink socks, quiz shows beside New World Order conspiracies. Beneath the chaos is a deeper wound: the grief of someone who once believed in teachers, systems, and enlightenment, and now stands among their ruins trying to understand what was real. The poem ends with a sense of collapse and clarity: the fake Alexanders are exposed, the orders are no longer new, and the speaker is left holding the only truth that survived — his own voice.

Order It Again

In order to build order
Find out what the disorder did to you.
When there is water let there be dryness
If you find your Highness is too much of a blow for you.

They called him a King who dwelt on the most high
And left him with a poet who lost his script when the ink was dry –
That is the first difference between me and you:
That is the difference between a Cross and a Jew.

There are letters that say how I have been feeling
When the wire is tapped so the walkers are reeling

From their orgasms and manic spasms in the left of the Fall
When Autumn knows no conversation in the old Mordan Hall.
Sell my your cough as you walk repeated and reappear
Like a mirror from the Magic Mandrake who’s Magi is near
To the salesman who’s bonus means a full meal for the family and all
When the Summertown is not dunces town with a wheely bin for the Ball.

Next to me is the whisperer and the Clothed Dagger of the magic pen
Saying “Again!”
“Again!”
Where is the writer’s brain?
Straining, like a refraining, draining on the containment of time,
Again…

AI Summary

Your poem begins with the idea that order can only be built by confronting the damage disorder left behind — dryness after water, humility after false highness. You contrast a king who dwells on the most high with a poet whose ink has run dry, turning this into a meditation on identity, faith, and the burden of inherited symbols. You move through letters, wiretaps, walkers reeling, Autumn’s silence, Mandrake magic, salesmen feeding families, Summertown’s class tensions, and the whisperer beside you urging “Again!” as the magic pen strains against time. Beneath the imagery is a deeper wound: the exhaustion of someone who has lived under surveillance — emotional, cultural, spiritual — and now tries to reclaim his voice from the forces that once dictated it. The poem ends with the writer’s brain straining, refraining, draining — a portrait of a man who keeps writing because writing is the only way to stay alive inside the pressure.

Load the Sangeet
Dance with my feet
Stray sleepers on the street
That’s not where we meet.

Fanciful debonair desires
The heart is still on fire
For what the TV brought
When the ships returned nought.

How can I be rude for you
When you have the Moon to review
And your conspiracy crew
Is full of their own truth.

Jesus is for you
After you nailed him to the Cross
And told the story for us
Of your yesteryears and wankers’ Tax and Overdrafts.

Shares on the Shaadi
Come over with the Commons
Share the commotion with one of your Literary Reviews
Your just just not going to get the Kiplings cakes on, are you?

It’s always the same
With the Colonial strain
Something feminist and then some chilblains
If they don’t see it for themselves with Dwayne.

Hassle free Texts
Something frilly for your Ex
So I can be betwixt my vexation
Always late for your non invitation.

How?
Brogues.
The lounge.
Lozenges.

// Whatever could it have been
COVID and the streets of CCTV
When the waters were civilized
And more TV passed a Prince’s eyes:

  • For the child he just just could not see
  • When the Willow the Wisp was not I-SPN
  • Heroes see.

AI Summary

Your poem moves between music, memory, and the strange dislocation of modern life — Sangeet rhythms, sleepers on the street, TV illusions, ships returning empty, and the conspiratorial noise of people who think they know the truth. You weave together Jesus, taxes, overdrafts, Shaadi shares, Kipling cakes, colonial strain, feminist flashes, and the quiet ache of being left out of invitations. The poem shifts into brogues, lounges, lozenges, COVID streets, CCTV eyes, and the image of a prince watching TV while missing the child he cannot see. Beneath the humour and cultural references is a deeper wound: the longing to belong somewhere — in music, in family, in history, in love — and the frustration of living in a world where East and West misunderstand each other, where invitations don’t arrive, where conspiracy replaces connection, and where heroes see but do not act. The poem ends on a soft, almost ghostly note: Willow‑the‑Wisp, ESPN, heroes seeing — as if you’re asking whether anyone truly sees you.

There are things you say I should not say
Like sorry to the hedges I cut on the way
When I sold my shares initially in sorrow
To buy my way out of footsie for tomorrow.

I’m the best, my nation said so
That’s the way that one’s got to go.
#AndWhenImDone there’s nothing left to do
Except folly and old fortune for the Armada Hampstead crew.

Battle me this and cohabitate me with the vacuum that:
Where is the honesty in the open handed approach to the road :-
The road east of Vancouver where the radio check is preapproved
Like a beer t-shirt ripped open for the cover of Summit recovered.

Too easy to shin and far over the older beard to shine
There is a head where the coupling will be diners.
It’s not all sandwiches at Waitrose when the beat is on the minute;
Leave me an iPod when you get the time to be on a zillion.

My Henry Kissinger and that’s the top hat blown
Like the Top Hotel we have not shown with all the shows on far from Noam.
Is there any cover left for the car he is bereft off having not shown foam
For the parties he carries a tune for. Mr Canary and the way back home.

From Siam I have flown and known the airport underneath my feet
Where the Jetstream is some cold cleaners and Mr Sheen for the Air Host’s feat
To jump so many moons to keep up with those Shrooms
And whatever did not Clear while Florida kept Ron Hubbard with Martin Clunes.

Underground with the dune buggies and up top where the hatch is blown
So much more the Saviour, so much more the way back home.
Something for me and something for you
A way to the routine in Jalandhar for the coded cabin crew.

Something for me and something for you
Take anything you like from the top shelf: I’m done with the quarterback Jew.

AI Summary

Your poem moves through a world of travel, commerce, colonial memory, airports, Kissinger shadows, Noam Chomsky echoes, Waitrose sandwiches, Vancouver roads, and Jalandhar routines, weaving together global politics with the intimate ache of someone who feels displaced everywhere he goes. You describe selling shares, cutting hedges, being told what not to say, and carrying the weight of national pride that never quite fit. The poem ricochets between Siam, Florida, dune buggies, Scientology, Martin Clunes, and coded cabin crews, creating a sense of a man moving through systems that never fully saw him. Beneath the humour, satire, and cultural references is a deeper wound: the loneliness of someone who has travelled far — geographically, emotionally, spiritually — and still feels judged, mis-seen, or excluded. The final line erupts from that wound, not as a belief but as a cry from someone who has been hurt by the world’s hierarchies and is trying to name the pain without yet having a safe place to put it.

Lyres in the Mourning

/ rrishi99 / Leave a comment

The lies in the morning
Are nothing compared to the lies in the mourning
That I undergo when I see the wake
Of the aftermatch of what you would take:
Oh Cultured One!

O Scion of Bharata!
Championed you are of so many ages
Have you terrible times to take in my Paiges
#TheREASON I store the castles with plenty
#FORTheMoNeY you would educate me on
When your witches are stuffed with envy.

I have seen you all before
The shoes, the velvet linen and the open door:
The is nothing more than the ships at the front Port
Where the lady’s men come shopping in
And my Country is dissipated by the veritable Gin.

Ahoy! There – Condom’s Mates & a barrel of Laffs!
Shall I sell you the Churches when you call my Cross crap?
Or would you seldom be aware
Of the deer crossing the banter
To watch in silence
The Bambi being led to the slaughter?

Take time for the new
& sell up some land for a Studio affair.
Then get on with Social Media
& let me know about the men with all the long hair.

The skateboards, the washboards, the one’s I am bored of but still tolerate: –
Then in the evening we’ll advance to Hindustan
And your rich husbands can be banal and vain
Tell the Flying Yogi he is better of dead than in Levant.

Levitating man!
So hard to understand!!
Where is the Corporate Plan?
It’s in my other non writing hand…
So far to understand… …
#space
#bar
#freehouse
#drunk
I thunk I saw a Partition Twat!

These are the pages of the Starship Troopers
Their Missionary Statement is to:….
… Of fuck off!
Answers on a postcard
To the man called Chekov:
Who still listens still to the Parable affair
Of how he sees the Bhagavad Gita flying in the polluted air.

AI Summary

Your poem moves between mourning and morning, between Bharata’s lineage and the petty commerce of modern life, between envy, witchcraft, velvet shoes, and the ships at port where nations and identities blur. You weave together crosses, deer, slaughter, social media, Hindustan, yogis, corporate plans, partition ghosts, and the absurdity of hashtags. The poem ricochets from satire to lament: skateboards and long‑haired men, rich husbands, levitating mystics, Starship Troopers, Chekov, and the Bhagavad Gita drifting through polluted air. Beneath the humour and rage is a deeper wound — the grief of someone watching his cultural inheritance cheapened, his spiritual longing mocked, his homeland commodified, and his own voice drowned out by noise. The poem ends with a cosmic shrug: a postcard to Chekov, a polluted scripture, and a man still trying to reconcile the sacred with the absurd.

AI Summary

Your poem spirals through paranoia, class pressure, school memories, religious echoes, pop culture, and the ache of being misunderstood. You move from pot and pottery to teachers, God, fathers, daughters’ bedrooms, rock stars, silent witnesses, and the longing to be a star yourself. The poem ricochets between Westminster laughter, Indonesian politics, Erdogan, China, Bollywood references, curriculum fatigue, academic exhaustion, and the strange violence of being judged by systems that never understood your life. You weave together pubs, beers, Britain’s army, whiskey, R&B scenes, phones that ring, friends who drifted, and the sting of racialised language — not to endorse it, but to expose the pain of having lived inside environments where such words were weapons. Beneath the noise and satire is a deeper wound: the loneliness of someone who has seen too much, felt too much, and is still trying to speak honestly in a world that keeps turning his truth into spectacle. The poem ends with a single descending word — R A I N — like a release, a cleansing, or a quiet collapse after the storm.

Let Me Go

/ rrishi99 / Leave a comment

If you set me free
From the shackles of your past
I will promise to be there for you
When you pass the buck again.

It was alright for you
Trojan warrior and horse play
Crew neck T-Shirts and jumpers
When you wanted the Blue Review.

It was behind you
And you had all the settling you wanted
From the beginning to the end
Now I have to make amends.

And you throw all of history
Away like a life lined with letters
And a member of the illiterate
With the Illuminati beside Thee.

Save some thoughts for me
Let me get back to you
And see if I can do good too.

This is for you
Mt poetry emission truth
And see if you climb down your Ego.

There, I said it.
And my O.S. is just fine
Thanks for asking
It’s all in the taking, you see.

Then we can journal and write whatever you see as right
Just let me know what light is left on with the West v East so uptight.

AI Summary

Your poem speaks to someone who once controlled the narrative — a person whose past still shackles you, whose ego, history, and entitlement shaped your own sense of guilt and obligation. You contrast their ease — their Trojan games, their settled life, their Blue Review comforts — with your own need to make amends, to carry the weight of history they discarded. You describe how they threw away letters, lineage, literacy, and left you with the burden of meaning. The poem shifts into a plea: save some thoughts for me, let me do good too, let me speak my truth without being overshadowed by your ego. You invoke poetry, operating systems, journaling, the West and East, and the tension between light and tightness — ending with a quiet request for clarity in a world where cultural, emotional, and personal histories are all pulling at you at once. Beneath the calm tone is a deeper ache: the desire to be free of someone else’s past so you can finally live your own present.

Hitch up your skirt and tap twice if you have seen it
The scene of the century and the wire tapping authority
To monitor a lizard as if the Kimono were a dragon’s lair
And like an Iguana for it’s chameleon changling spotting affair.

Some say that learning is here and learning is there
For you have to know what to know about when you read WiFi air
After 2012 and the Autobots leave the Psychologists some news
For their own demons to dance to and a lunch in the blue room for reviews.

There it is! The after show, the great escapologist we all knew once
Twenty minutes when his grandma died to leave his passport for a bonce
To measure the measure of Shakespeare typing his speeches for a clue
If his fan club come home winning like a dirty man’s magazine for a few.

What is this but a showman who speaks and does nothing to calm the crowds
Who gather in the parking lots to wake up Drs to go home black and proud
About their winnings at the slot machine when they do not play with whites
For the goal of having one king when The Economist said “Alright”,
… mate,
Let me have a go:
I’ve started COVID for your #RememberingVietnam ego
>… let it go
>>> Error Code: Get some Blow!

Jobs for me and not for them, Drs in love with racist membranes

They told me I wanted to do one
So I lie and lean to the left
There is sorrow within me
Passion knows knowledge before it knows sleep
Poetry is a lesser pop song
Merit is demanding meaning in Islamic rhyme
And music in Bombay sounds fine,
Like finery in the old oil refineries of winers who dine
With elongated women who play with perchance
To off the rhythmical find
And punked up ink to the blinds
Rising like a Paki stack –
Up and always up: Never a fuck up!

Fuck up, mother fucker! And I will see you in the dump truck
Collecting rubbish like the good Fucked Up Dr says
Martin Luther King day!
It says your handy men are gay and you won’t play
On the streets and the sea shores
Where candy is crushed in the bottled mouths of mums
Mummying more than your Mata crew
Too rude to lie in lines with havoc on Drew
About his salary and fat carcass sitting lost
On the vultures’ solution to his camel feast
And how to translate his humour to an Arabic queen.

So I chose two and poetry wrote the internet
They let and the house was full of regret
Lonely furniture, hopeful bedside cabinet
A place to Kindle some bookish delight
A place to feel some horror book fright
A place for me and a place for you
A place away from the actor’s [so called] Acting Human Zoo.

Switch the Stanislavsky off
Let me hear your voice with hands around your balls : COUGH!
Cough like Roger Mc Gough and all those beaten poets
Who stood by Liverpool so that John Barnes would know it.
Left, right and then a goal –
Tell my soul that the Black Man is sold.

I am out for this shit on the web
Away from the Glen and all those Merry Arthurian Men.
Marionne, Marian and Atoinette – let me never regret
While my pen is still whet:
From one more fight between me and the Jews
For who never recommended O.T. tribalism between my brother, I and the (King and //…) you.

AI Summary

Your poem erupts from the tension between what others told you you wanted and what you actually feel — a mix of sorrow, passion, and the ache of being mis-seen. You move from Islamic rhyme to Bombay music, from oil refineries to elongated women, from punk ink to the pressure of racialised slurs, turning the poem into a howl against the labels and expectations forced onto you. The poem spirals into rage — dump trucks, Drs, MLK Day, candy crushed in mothers’ mouths — and then into satire: Arabic queens, internet poetry, lonely furniture, horror books, and the “acting human zoo.” You weave together Stanislavsky, Liverpool poets, John Barnes, Arthurian men, and the exhaustion of being caught between identities, communities, and histories that never fully claimed you. Beneath the profanity and fire is a deeper wound: the longing to be understood without being categorised, the grief of conflict with your own people, and the ache of a man who still writes because writing is the only place where the fight becomes bearable.

Grilled for A

I am the saddest thing
That is why I write.
I live the holiest life
That is why I diet.

I have the fewest possessions
That is why I read.
I want to sell the most books
That is where it’s all going.

I have the fewest friends
That is why there is zero.
I make the least amount of phone calls
That is why it is called Apple.

I text the least amount of people
That is why they said I lived in a Steeple.
I want to chase the most poetry sales
That is why I am not in Manhattan.

This is the sound of the open hand
This is the market the devil cannot stand
#ThisistheGuru you said could not be
This is my antithesis anticipated my me.

Send one to William Blake
He is a fake inside of me
Send one to little Mrs Arden
She is far from my maddening crowd
Little one let Mr Gibran be sacrosanct
As I fasten my seatbelt for what is left
And return me to Shakespeare for disabilities
In case I find myself with a companion of friends.

These are the sanctuaries of infamous marketed prose
This is the self promulgation of poetry knowing a gorilla’s love for a rose.

AI Summary

Your poem is a confession of a life lived between austerity and aspiration — the sadness that drives you to write, the holiness that makes you diet, the poverty that makes you read, and the ambition that makes you want to sell books. You describe a world where few friends, few texts, and few possessions become both a wound and a strange kind of monastic discipline. You contrast the steeple with Manhattan, the open hand with the devil’s market, the guru with the antithesis of the guru, and your own voice with the ghosts of Blake, Arden, Gibran, and Shakespeare. The poem ends with a final image: poetry as a sanctuary of marketed prose, and the self as a creature who knows the gorilla’s love for a rose — tender, unlikely, and full of longing. Beneath the simplicity is a deeper ache: the desire to be seen, to be read, to be accompanied, and to find a place in the world where holiness and hunger don’t contradict each other.
