அடுத்த போர்!


 கண்ணீரும் குருதியும்

கடலென பாய்ந்தாலும்

நாதியற்று நிற்கும் நன்னிலம்

இனப்படுகொலையை நேர்கொண்ட இனமே

 இனப்படுகொலையில் ஈடுபடுகிறது

முரணும் மனிதனும் காதலர்கள் அல்லவா 

கையறு நிலையில்

கள்ள மௌனம் காக்கும் வல்லரசுகள்

பின்வாசலில் முகாமிட்டிற்கின்றன

மானுடம் கேள்விக்குள்ளாக்கப்படும் வேளையில்

அடுத்த வெறுப்பு கோஷம்

அதோ! கிரிக்கெட் மைதானத்திலிருந்து.




Context: When a group of hate mongers booed the Pakistan cricket team at Allahabad stadium at the time of Palestinian struggle in Gaza against Israel.

I was amazed at how AI reads human interaction this beautifully. It was a very novice and rudimentary attempt to explore the theory of mind and AI. I am not in any way misrepresenting the calibre of human mind with AI technology. I will try to update this post, if anythi...

God! Nero! Genghis Khan!

  I was raised as a staunch believer of God by my parents. They believed in God as a moral guide and support that guided them during difficult times in life. I enjoyed praying and holding faith in it to accomplish things in life and persevere through tough waters. As I grew up, I felt guilty about being selfish in using my faith and wanted to make amends. This made me ponder about the world's sufferings and unjust society. This did not lead me to a rational path, but rather, I convinced myself that there must be certain reasons for the world's pain, and they are solely inflicted because of humans' greed for power and money and God will alleviate the hopeless out of it. I believed that this might take time, but it'll not be an insurmountable task for the omnipresent. But I had realised the difference in my faith that I had in my childhood to that of my teen period. But I didn't want to reason this change, rather wanted to still hold on to my faith for selfish reason...
