TASTE OF YOUR OWN MEDICINE

 


The boy with his ledger, of rights and wrongs,
Sings hollow tunes, but never his own songs.
When his flaws are laid bare, he turns to “move on,”
Yet he thrives on the judgment he casts upon.

A lover of idioms, metaphors in vain,
Believes his wordplay makes him reign.
With a glance, he judges, with words, he stabs,
Deems himself a king of life's drabs and jabs.

But let’s be honest, your digs fell flat,
Not a single diss hit the mat.
You call yourself cosmic—master of the dance,
Yet stumble through life with a hollow stance.

You sneer at the world, “They can’t best me!”
If that were true, oh, how grim life would be.
And you, unaware of my silent strife,
I longed to erase the touch of your life.

You, the one who knew about Stifler’s Mom,
But couldn't handle my fire—you’d rather play calm.
“Would you wear this in front of my mom?” you’d plea,
While handing out lectures on love and purity.

Preach on, boy, of peace and white doves,
While you wear your hypocrisy like a glove.
Taste your own medicine, bitter and true,
For the world won’t bow—it’s not about you.

Polished Sins

  A suit and tie, that polished smile, Covering up sins stacked mile by mile. They flaunt “new love,” someone else’s child— A ready-made story, perfectly styled. They’ve “levelled up,” or so they preach, But on someone’s pain, they made their reach, With vows of loyalty, words so neat, While another’s screams lie beneath their feet. Oh, they “moved on” to brighter skies, Leaving someone broken, with silent cries. They mount new heights, they shout and boast— Scaling peaks on another's haunted ghost. So smile for the camera, flash your pride, Show off the life that you tried to hide. For we know the truth beneath your gleam— A hollow show, a self-made scheme.

Stay Away

Stay away, stay away Keep those hands away Stay away, stay away I am not on display Stay away, stay away I just want my name on the hard black clay Stay away, stay away I am a kid who just wants to play Stay away, stay away All these memories are like a never-ending screenplay ~ Kanika Kaushal ✨ The Luminous Muse

Model Men and Their Modern Myths

  Here come the men who love their pride, With “culture” on speed dial, their mothers beside them. They want a wife who’ll light the lamp, While they scroll through pages of virtual vamp. They call themselves leaders, oh so wise, But sex ed is a topic they just despise. If you ask them about anatomy's flow, They’ll stammer, then boast about paychecks to show. Progressive now, they’ll have you believe, Because daughters study, and daughters leave The home to work—but don’t go too far, Or they’ll pull you right back by some invisible bar. They crave the respect, the honour, the fame, Yet when faced with real talk, they’re quick to shame. These "modern men" with their ancient views— One foot in the past, and the other confused. Oh, fools of entitlement, kings of the mud, With egos so fragile, they’re bound to flood At the slightest nudge of applied insight— They’ll laugh, then pull you out of their sight. So here’s to these men, these leaders so grand, With “values” in one, ...
