The Masked News

-

They call it light—
those flashy tickers, spinning headlines,
but between the lines,
it’s just a crown of lies polished with truth.

Microphones in hand,
they claim honesty is their only language.
Yet, when the mic meets the lips,
the truth gets lost in transmission.

New lies dressed as breaking news,
old tricks replayed as viral drama.
We watch not for knowledge,
but for a performance
a circus with cameras instead of clowns.

Weekend specials mimic war stories,
but the tears are staged,
the rage is scripted,
and the anchor's stare is more dramatic than sincere.

They don’t break news—
they break reality.

In the space between
“allegedly” and “confirmed,”
they dance,
feeding us fear, fame, and filtered facts.

We’re not asked to understand,
just to react—
to comment, to share, to obey
the algorithm of outrage.

Truth doesn’t sell,
but believable lies do.
Their TRPs climb over corpses of real stories.
And we—the audience—
we’ve forgotten how to ask:
"Is this true?"
Instead we ask:
"Did it go viral?"

The news doesn’t report the world anymore.
It edits it.

With a smile made for the screen
and a script written by profit,
they tell lies so well—
you almost want to believe.

  The Soul forge Chronicles A Journey of the Soul Through Flame, Time, and Truth The Soul forge Chronicles is an epic poetic saga tracing the soul’s journey from divine origin to earthly entrapment and back to transcendence. Set across 5,000 years of human history, myth, and inner evolution, it explores the great questions of existence— Who are we? Why do we suffer? Where is the divine? Through cantos rich in symbolism, philosophy, and spiritual depth, the saga blends ancient wisdom and modern reflection. It draws from all great traditions—Hinduism, Christianity, Islam, Buddhism, and beyond—yet speaks with one unified voice: the voice of the soul seeking its Source. Each book is a step in the alchemical transformation of the self: Descent into illusion, ego, and chaos Awakening through trial, remembrance, and fire Return to the eternal light, reborn and refined This is not just poetry—it is a map for the inner traveler, a myth reborn for our age.

The Crimson Sunset

Set in the mythic remnants of Lothric, this fantasy poem explores the soul of a fallen knight mourning lost love and honor. Through a dark fantasy lens akin to Dark Souls, this tale of crimson sunsets, ghostly echoes, and the eternal search for light in despair invites readers into a world of high emotion, shadowy lore, and poetic storytelling. The crimson sunset bleeds across the sky, A warrior's lament, a mournful cry. Lothric's fields, where drakes once soared so high, Now whisper tales of loss as shadows lie. A knight lies fallen, midst the fading light, His diamond tears, a vision in the night. He sees her face, though fading from his sight, Stolen away, by shadows born of blight. No clash of steel, no victory's sweet song, Just echoes of a love that met with wrong. The winged halberds, where they did belong, Now weep for her, where silent tears throng. The endless cycle, a torment to his soul, A broken vow, beyond his heart's control. He seeks the truth, to make h...

Letters of Ash, Seeds of Dawn-Humanitarian Poem

-
  "Letters of Ash, Seeds of Dawn" I. Myths once bore light, now wear iron masks, Invading truths with scripted lies. Where death should close, it now unmasks— A conquest staged for watching eyes. Peace wore war’s robe in silken thread, While warriors wept in silent prayer. The holy watched the hour’s dread, Yet found no justice anywhere. II. Words once rose like dawn to sing, Now fall like dusk, lost in decay. The scholar bends beneath the king, And science kneels where myths still pray. Who writes the war that none have seen? Who laughs at death from golden thrones? While children dream of battle's sheen, And play with steel that splits their bones. III. Trade marries death, and power feeds On hands that build but own no bread. The worker’s sweat is sown in weeds— A harvest lost, a dream long dead. The mother cries, unnamed, unknown, Her voice erased by cannon’s cry. Her lips are dry, her cradle’s stone— Her songs are drowned in smoke-filled sky. IV. Yet still, within th...
