Pathetic Fallacy

Folder: 
Hindu


Poem critics
and not poets..

say that to know
machines have feelings
is an example of 'pathetic
fallacy'..


Dr. Kasturi was following

Baba's car. Kasturi's car

parts began to fall off one

by one. When he arrived

at his destination, he went

to a mechanic who said it was

mechanically impossible for

the car to have arrived.

Kasturi asked Baba: "Did

you do this miracle because

I am a good devotee?"  Baba replied

"It is the car... the car is a great

devotee" 


Baba said later on that he Kasturi

would be Baba's parent in his next

life.

You are very clever in your writing.....smiling-this is a brillance brain teaser and a intelligence write
Man the designs and devices of your hands can never weight the human scale.for all your zeal that you try to endow them with human traits and emotions to inanimate your nature they still remains cold steel without grace and compassion. be careful in times to come that by the help of your own hands and without mercy they don't screw you becoming your masters and destruction.I think i got the meaning of it right hopefully.this poem makes you think deep and long.i really enjoyed it

=Yeah, I'm not exactly sure what the title means. Never heard of the name of this particular god, unless you made it
up; or, unless it's a middle-eastern god perhaps, or asian,
maybe. Kinda sounds like the writer hates critics who just
crit, and not produce. Forget it. I'm tryin to figure out
something I can't figure out. Meter and rhythm are off a
bit, probably which is why I'm havin trouble w/enjoying it,
or gettin into it. But, then again, what do I know? This
is perhaps a type of style/rhythm/meter I'm not used to.
I did, however, like the one message I got from it: Kind of
like a prayer for compassion. I just know this crit isn't
making any sense.

Hmmm....Varunishwar. Sounds....well....norse.

I feel this is a poem that has multiple meaning. Not too many lines but can engage the mind for hours together pondering. Thank you for trying this awareness.

Although I'm not too sure of the meaning of this I like your style in this piece and I especially love the last stanza. I'm trying to find out what it means to me,I may need to research some history, I'm trying to understand...
