Beauty and truth

What is beauty and where it exists?
I would search it around the cosmos;
Sometime in falling star, and sometimes in dew;
But they were not long lasting;
And I turned away to mountains and forests.
With new rain, I saw them changing.
New leaves, new lives and new smells.
I was mesmerized to see them.
Was it beauty? And I was in the lap of beauty?
I watched each and every flowers;
There colors, and big and small green trees. a
With the two motions of the earth
I saw its changing colors, from green to brown.
I saw the dying fish without water.
When the next rain came, my eyes had changed.
Because I knew what is next ahead ;
Again new leaves, new lives and new smells.
I want to look deep into your eyes;
Not for the shake of beauty, but for the shake of truth
May be I get beauty, searching the truth.
Because a wireless message has come to me,
That ''You are in search of beauty.''

The task of liberty

May be sky is limitless;
And you have courage to go deep, beyond and beyond.
May be the surface of the sun is un-tolerable;
And you have ability to walk on it with naked feet.
May be the sea is deep;
And you have eyes to see the pearls
But sorry to say it my friend!
These strengths have no meaning without freedom
Freedom to think; and freedom to express!!
Behind the glimpse of the stature of Liberty
Watching eyes, creating a circle of an unseen cage;
And a voice is sinking deep and deep.
How can I say that the task of liberty is completed?

You consider me as your queen only?
(Shaking her legs)

I hope you too will consider yourself as queen only. Why are you not trying to understand the scene?
Jelly
Your queen is blockhead?
Director
My queen is a real lady with her libido. She has everything and she believes the world is full of happiness and pleasure while her subject is highly dissatisfied. She is not a blockhead queen.
Jelly
I wanted to listen your vision regarding queen. I think you should not send your blockhead assistant for me. He is misinterpreting the psychology of queen. (Looking to her legs and laying shoes) Would you mind to serve me? It is queen order.
(Director sits under her feet and picks up a shoe from the ground and holds her leg in his lap.)
Director
You have beautiful legs.
Jelly
(Looking into his eyes) All the directors are always ready to kiss them...
Director
You are using your state treasury in your amusement and it is almost finished, while your subject is dying of hunger. And you are completely unaware of it.
(He puts a shoe in her feet and takes her another feet in his lap.)
Jelly
Even all the co-stars are mad behind me.

Does your queen love some one like a woman?
Director
She loves herself only.
Jelly

Director
(Having puts on another shoe in her leg, he stands up.)
I am going to shoot you in a library. You are going to meet a revolutionary leader of third state, who is eager to serve you. In stead of it, he wants your favor because he wants to enter into the national assembly, although the election of the national assembly has not been declared.
Jelly
I am feeling humiliated.
Director
Why?
Jelly
Because you are always treating me like a queen, while all the film industry is highly interested in my sex appeal.(In a fanatic way). Ok, on the screen you can take me as your queen but off the screen you should treat me like a woman....who is ready to fall in love with a man like you...You are the director of this film...If I start loving you, it will be the great gossip news for the media...And every day I want to see myself in gossip column...
Director
But I do not want myself in gossip column. I only want to finish this project.
Jelly
(In angry tone)You are a big rascal. I will leave your project. People love to read about my love affairs...lusty act...so I always want some scandalous stories around me....
(She holds her shirt.)
Director
I will love you to lead on the set, my queen.
Jelly
And I will love you to lead in my bed.
