RAC

RAC*
-----------
A journey
From present to unknown...
Must be worth its salt
Final destination alias last halt.

Lo
Karma forces one to wait
RAC
Screams the fate
Life span has always been a guessing game
Death never seems to be a good looking dame.

RAC now
Cry or wow
Journey till end gets more fascinating
Waiting to be berthed, for no more waiting.

Reaching ultimate destination
Depends on one’s attitude
Show HIM or not
Any gratitude.

Puente form of poetry

Puente form of poetry 
-----------------------------------------------------

The Sun bows ceremoniously down 
A new journey at dawn begins
Life never been a golden crown
Paramount is washing of sins

~ Ultimate Goal seeks sacrifices

Injustice to be fought alone
Patriots only achieve the end supreme
Strength is immaterial in absence of heart and soul
Victory allows nations live life so serene.

बस

बस
---------
लो, चल पड़ीं और
बस में बैठे हम
उत्सुकता से निहार रहें हैं
खिड़की में बाहर
अपने संगी साथीओं को
जो चलचित्र की भांति
अपनी छाप छोड़ रहें हैं
मानस पटल पर
जीवन की आपा धापी को इंगित करते
दूपहिये, तिपहिये, चारपहिया वाहन
एक दुसरे कि होड़ में
आगे निकलने की दौड़ में
जीवन दर्शन के ज्ञान बखानते
कि कुछ भी तो स्थिर नहीं है
अगर स्थिर है तो बस पेड़, पौधे
लैम्पोस्ट, मील के पत्थर या फिर
हमको  विभाजित करते यह डिवाइडर
यह मन तो चंचल है
गर स्थिर हो तो बेहतर हो
पर मन का स्थिर होना कौन चाहता है
वह तो चलना चाहता है, बस की तरह
जीवन अपना उस अजनबी चालक के हाथ में दे कर
जो लाल सिग्नलों से निकाल कर
चौराहों को पार करा कर
एक गंतव्य पर उतार देता है
आगे का लक्ष्य साधने को
अपने ही कर्मो के द्वारा

Soul Searching by Peace


Soul Searching by Peace
---------------------------------

Standing before the mirror gazing self
twin one croons,
“history of wars, fights, skirmishes
have already taken toll of you
terrorism of every dimension
now becoming sin number eight
what is to expect now from you ?”
It questions simple and straight.

“Sometimes you are scarred
Sometimes you are battered
Sometimes you are crossed
Sometimes you are martyred.

So
“Are you dead ?
Nay, I dread
you are not yet,”
whispers my mirrored friend.

“eighth sin has no place
war has no grace
let more sunshine be there
for everyone and everywhere
undoing mean human mentality
let darkness not prevail
blinding us till eternity.”

“Rise, rise, rise once again
show your prowess
hold tightly drooping reins
 peace, humility and harmony breeds
great civilizations
don’t dump into dustbins
God’s own beautiful creations.”

“Alias love, compassion and brotherhood
you can’t be dead
wake up and change the mindset
for the sake of entire humanity
 make violence to shed violence
apartheid to shed bias
states to terminate conflicting ways
with false vanity
and embrace you
with heart and soul
global peace be only your goal.”

Could withstand no more
allowed it to merge in mine
my conscience ready to take on
all the violent ways head on
for peace and harmony.

चतुष्पदी


चतुष्पदी 
--------------------------------
जाते हुए लम्हों को पकड़ा नहीं करते
जीवन को अतीत में जिया नही करते
जो है यह पल है, बनने बनाने के लिए
इतिहास के पन्नो से झाँका नहीं करते

Some safeguards against PLAGIARISM

Some safeguards against PLAGIARISM
---------------------------------------------------

Of late many instances have come to the notice where in contents posted by the originator   were unabashedly  posted by unscrupulous elements either in their own name or posted on their walls/blogs/pages without acknowledging the source of the material/originator giving a reader an idea that the work belongs to cheater/thief.  Recently works of some of my friends on Facebook/  (Sunita) (Shaista) (Menika) / have been posted somewhere else without their permission and knowledge. These are but a few examples only.  It is well known fact that plagiarists are everywhere. One can not help in these cases unless and until the work concerned is copyrighted. In that case the offender can be sued and compensation demanded. However it is not so easy as it seems. It is very cumbersome to get each and every poem/story/article copyrighted from www.copyright.gov.in   every time it is posted. Suing a person is also not an easy task in our legal system. However if one goes through the FAQs of the site, one can stumble upon an answer which says, Quote ,  “Is it necessary to register a work to claim copyright?
Ans: No. Acquisition of copyright is automatic and it does not require any formality. Copyright comes into existence as soon as a work is created and no formality is required to be completed for acquiring copyright. However, certificate of registration of copyright and the entries made therein serve as prima facie evidence in a court of law with reference to dispute relating to ownership of copyright” Unquote.

It is clear that once a work is created its copyright remains with the originator. However following steps may ensure that your work remains safe even if plagiarized.

a)   Please write COPYRIGHT/ your name or mention  All Rights Reserved/your name  (date & times is automatically shown, if not,  put it there too)
b)  Check often, through Plagiarism Checker, whether your contents are published/ plagiarized  anywhere on the net.
c)    If you happen to know about theft of the content, warn the person concerned and shame him/her on your wall, on his/her page/wall and also seek the blacklisting/blocking of the person concerned through your friends.
d)  Report him/her to the service provider/ admins.
e)    After every three months please do post the following on your timeline, page, website etc. :-

These steps are also not full proof yet it may prove to be detterent to a plagiarist. He/she may have to think twice before she steals the content.
I must mention here that ideas/concepts have no copyrights. Any one can develop already existing idea/concept in his/her own style and language except works of art which is to be patented.

I hope this information may help poets/writers to some extent.
