Cant resist the urge to share some poems i found interesting from this book titled 'Between the lines'

ART HISTORY
he who innovates or creates writes history
he who owns artistry writes history
he who deviates from history writes history

he who follows history writes history
he who documents history offers history
he who rejects history is rejected by history

he who interpolates history accepts history
he who extrapolates history denies history
he who manipulate history is manipulated by history

he who moves faster than history often be punished by history
he who remains stationary punishes history
he who lags behind history makes silence in history

he who watches history is indebted to history
he who disregards history is insulated by history
he who studies history will not make history

he who reinvents history will be left behind history
he who revamps history makes history
he who forgives history will be forgotten by history

such is rudiments of history!


EXCUSE ME

this is an excuse
an excuse to accuse
or an excuse to refuse?

this is an excuse
an excuse to conceal
or an excuse to reveal?

this is an excuse
an excuse to steal
or an excuse to wheel & deal?

this is an excuse
an excuse to confuse
or an excuse to earn extra revenue?

this is an excuse
an excuse to open up another avenue
or an excuse to escape to another venue?

this is an excuse
an excuse to kill
or an excuse to climb up the hill?

this is an excuse
an excuse to appeal
or an excuse to renew?

excuse, excuse,
more excuses,
there is always an excuse
for every situation new
to avoid or to rescue?
whatever it may be, it's truly sinful abuse!


i like the way the poet plays with words...
