No Love to Go Back
How can we go back
To what's gone and done
It's hard to be blind
How our hearts changed
Don't know what to do
Feelings may've been true
All is past behind
All is done and gone
No way to go back
I have known back then
The day it begun
You said you love me
How our hearts changed
Don't know what to do
Feelings may've been true
Case of infamy
Life ended the fun
Have I known back then
Heaven is for us
But I did wonder
When we're together
How our hearts changed
Don't know what to do
Feelings may've been true
There's no forever
So I did wonder
Is heaven for us
I have lost your love
Nothing's left for us
Knew would never last
How our hearts changed
Don't know what to do
Feelings may've been true
All is in the past
What else's there for us
I have lost your love
No love to go back...
Pained Memories
I tried to go back
Through my life story
And it's hard to say
Hindsight's not a thrill
If only you know
That it's not funny
And I won't complain
Though it makes me chill
-
I've felt ever since
Day you came along
Said you'd stay a while
And be here with me
You didn't tell me
That you can't belong
And I trusted you
Believed all you say
-
Heaven is for us
But I did wonder
If we're together
When we kiss today
Love can't ever be
There's no forever
I cannot insist
I get what I may
-
I have lost the past
Knew would never be
All that's left for us
I wish not to see

Lilian Kunimasa considers herself a student/teacher with the duty to learn, inspire, guide, and motivate others to contribute to changing what is seen as normal into a better world than when she steps into it. She has always considered life as an endless journey, searching for new goals, and challenges and how she can in small ways make a difference in every path she takes. She sees humanity as one family where each one must support the other and considers poets as a voice for Truth in pursuit of Equality and proper Stewardship of nature despite the hindrances of distorted information and traditions.
Today, Uzbekistan pays great attention to children's education, because the saying "The future is in the hands of the youth" is not in vain. This is the real reason why so much attention is paid to this education. Not only the Republic of Uzbekistan, but perhaps the whole world has paid attention to children's education.
In particular, the establishment of a step-by-step educational program for children in Uzbekistan and the establishment of free school education are proof of the trust and respect shown to them. By 2022, the rate of admission of children to preschool education, i.e. kindergarten, has been raised in Uzbekistan. Earlier, kindergarten education was not considered mandatory, but today it is determined that it is necessary in all regions.
In this regard, laws and regulations are also being adopted. Various laws have been adopted to set the age of admission to kindergarten at three years old, to manage their daily food rations, and to prevent the educators from committing various violations.
Kindergarten should be a place where every child can be taught basic knowledge, manners and respect.
Laws and regulations are also being adopted in this regard. To govern the students' daily food ration, establish the entry age of kindergarten at three years old, and stop the teachers from breaking numerous rules, various laws have been adopted. Every child should be able to learn basic information, manners, and respect in kindergarten.
The major objective of kindergarten education is to get kids ready for school by teaching them fundamental ideas in straightforward
language.
Between 2016 and 2022, major improvements in kindergarten instruction were seen in Uzbekistan.
Between 2016 and 2022, there will be a difference in the number of rural children and their kindergarten attendance.
Today, there is a wide range in the caliber of education in rural areas as well. Children receive a lot of attention because they will be the future's leaders. For their healthy development, a variety of clubs are being organized.
The tradition of Eastern thinkers places a high value on educational issues. They gave a lot of thought to the family and the upbringing of children within it in particular. The challenges of raising a kid in a family and solutions to those challenges are outlined in the writings of intellectuals such Abu Nasr Farabi, Abu Rayhan Beruni, Kaikovus, and Alisher Navoi.
Preschool Education is currently being attempted using the strategy of deploying "mobile kindergartens" to enroll preschoolers in rural areas.
Four specially equipped buses dubbed "Aqlvoy" mobile kindergartenswere introduced to the area and are now serving children in remote communities in the Hazorasp, Bogot, Yangiariq, and Khiva districts. Eleven stations in total are being set up, and a list of kids who will be taken to mobile kindergartens is being created.
With the start of the new school year, this approach will enable 384
additional children to enroll in pre-school programs.

… RAW OF THE ROSES …

When we played at being young
we were all less old than raw
All were hangers, none were hanged
and all were knights of the Lord
And then the ordered murder
that joins the chaos of raw
succeeded the disorder
that normalized our Before
Our invisible missiles
and markless wounds from the raw
advanced to marches and drills
medals formations and corps
the glory and brotherhood
the backwardness of raw
the salute to blood and mud
and boredom broken by gore
Our red company carries
symbol standards of our raw
spear and aegis of ares
forged by the hammer of thor

DON'T GET ME WRONG
Despite all these eons of together, you still want me to write you poems? Okay:
"the stars:scattershot across the purple night / like bullshit on velvet"
Don't like it? Terribly sorry. This lack of sweet poetry, can you forgive?
But beyond your vertical crescent smile
there lurks O swastika – Mons Lisa skinners box
When you sleep your closed eyes look like Chinese twats
Though your eyes no longer burn with magic
and this hour with infinite possibilities won't swell any more,
yet your quotidian eyes still warm the frosty air,
and I don't mind my time with you.
And your arms don't anchor my lusts as they did before,
and your form isn't the amusement park it used to be
when I was the new ride,
but your embrace remains a comforter in the cold winter nights
and the scenery's quite nice still.
WE WITHIN THE WHEELS: DALIT
At the temple festival the tables went humming under the cabbage, rice, and melons. The summer sun waning. The baldbearded helium balloons dancing grandly among nubile paper lanterns, buddhas bronze/rotund. Ah, the season it was of Experience Superior – the feelings of love and the perceived reciprocity of love, when, past all balance and sense and generational propriety, exuberant amidst the consuming and consumed, we two, lanternballoon-alike, food and Buddha commingled, music and the truth congealed.
That's why your paradox didn't register at the time.
And the Children happy as tadpoles aswim in father's river. And the Children pampered like feathers adrift in mama's balloon.
Now my beauty r e a c h e s o u t in search of your damp and hidden cottage. (Remember the crisp sunflowers asmoke unkempt against the steep/&damp scampismelly dirt path. Recall the rose-of-sharon labyrinth oft-credited – before and since – as the soul's taoWay, eelslick & serpent straight, into the nirvanic heart of notUnbeing.) Your thatched and pointed little house – it's not where last I fingered its locks. The knobs now I'm told are handled some other where.
But even so, blind and blind, my beauty reaches out
reaches out
my blind beauty reaches
out into cold and empty vacuum.
And the Children pampered like feathers adrift in mama's balloon, and the Children dappled in shadow ajoy in haughty first light.
Your holy mantra for the season: Iloveyou can't love you. And the rutting neophyte at your knees picked at the koan's echoed contradictions. I angled it in the light, squinting along its crosshairs, but the scope just would not focus. Flash powder applied, I tried to freeze it in its frame. But the quiver could never quite gel. Dusted for prints, but no proper whorl ever emerged to point its finger conclusively. "I love you can't love you." I parsed the riddle into phonemic meaninglessness but the significance never decoded. Affixed onto the acrylic stage for minutest examination, clarity persistently remained at yet one remove. Until Enlightenment came at last, slowly in a rush. I'd always known you'd go, of course, but not so suddenly. And not so soon. The painful puzzle pieces shuttered into place. And the Children dappled in shadow ajoy in haughty first light, and the Children, dapper as bluejays, agreed in bawdy verdure. I love you can't love you, Clause the first personal, in classic equipoise with clause two cultural. Subject-ckause by predicate controlled, the halving twins yining and yanging about, plusandminus all at once. The treasured self, forbidden/desired, embraced/abhorred.
(My fellow anthropologists, take careful note: her heart's harsh judgment was conditioned by decades and millennia of micromacroforming. Metaphorically speaking, as such, I am the incest taboo. In those society eyes, I'm the faggot in the homophobic gym, the nigger in the genepool, the sheep in the unbleating humanfold. In objective terms, and all in econocultural conext of course, her loving me was always the equivalent of fucking the corpse.)
And the Children, dapper as bluejays agreed in bawdy verdure, and all us Children vampiric taters asleep in God's root cellar.
But the mantramoth, addicted, tethered herself to the tormented flame. The cycle doomed to turn and flutter, return and flutter, and flutter away. Return again, again away, covering and recovering the same old ground, rut ater rut after rut again.
And koan's mystery deepens.
But the Children happy as tadpoles.
TIME MACHINE
Echoless laughter
marked the mocking
rictor sardonicus
of our love,
showing us that time
is the machine
that shredshredshreds presents
into pasts.
And tomorrow’s rich
tapestries, which
were infinite once, have
slimmed to threads.
Life’s chaos indeed
is orderly but
not in ways we have
deciphered.
Our universe was
not Galileo’s
and also won’t be
our children’s,
but all their loves and
all their changes
will still be all the same
probably.
Bring Back My Love Again
Stop
Stop here shadow
Where are you going?
What is your destination?
Where will your ship anchor?
The queen of time
The queen of love
Come back
Hug me like butterflies
Bring back my love
Bring back my love again
You bring back my love again.
You have gone drunk with greed
For the transitoriness of morning dewdrops
That will be destroyed after rising the sun
You are a collector of flowers
You change yourself every moment
But you can't change the feather of love
Everything bows to time
You have to bow to time
You have to be burnt
With the fire of love
Stop everything
Just stop everything
Come back
And bring back my love again.
The moon of my sky is down
Who will shake my heart?
Who will give happiness to my eyes?
Who will paint my dreams?
Don't think me as an old stone
I am not lifeless love
My love is not lifeless
Come and walk in my heart
See the sea of love
Come back
Look at my face
Here is your seal of love
I can't wash my face
I can't breath without your love
I want to hide in you
Don't walk in wrong track
Here is true love
Here is true peace
Here is true happiness
Come back
And bring back my love again.
Have you touched the mountain of snow?
My warmth is stored there for you
Have you smeared the South wind?
In which the words of my love are composed
Have you swum in the river of love?
That just flows my love
Have you heard the sound of love?
It is in my heart
Geometric love will inspire you to come back
A circle cannot change it’s center
Love is not love which is calculated
come back
And bring back my love again.
Don't break the rhythm of poetry
As my soul lives in it
Don’t miss the flight of time
Time is limited but love is long
Don't blame on your forehead
As there is no true reason
Get ride of the sins of the delusions
Which are full of crime
Come out of the cave of darkness
As there is no vision
No vision, no love
Come back
I will disappear your darkness
Come back to the cave of light
Light is love
You bring back my love again.
You tried to trickle me
No, I am not fooled
Tears do not quench the flame
You cheated on yourself
You have drowned in the sea of injustice
Yet only you are in my prayers
I love you from the depth of heart
I live in you
Ignite the emptiness
Fill the cup of love
Come back
And bring back my love again.
May life be blessed
May the expression of the circle
And the day -night of the moon -sun be united Immortality is in love history.
The rain will come from the heaven
The desert will give birth civilization
Trees will spread their branches
You are asked
You are invited
Come back
Please come back
And bring back my love again..
MINSTREL OF WORDS
His sayings crashed against the walls
His anguish was no more than another new frivolous tape, crowning a brain who played the game of errors
Eloquence is not enough
The heart oscillates tonight and slides off the edge of an eyelid,
Wavering in the swamps of petty goodbyes,
Mercy... For the man who passes free from your shadow, free from you
Mercy For those who analyze the foam of the underworld
Wizards of the spike,
Bonfire Bird Embalmers Memory
footprint ... Frozen
His revolution celebrated the apotheosis of life in decline
Meanwhile, she continues to dream of a bed laced with rose petals.
She keeps forgetting the reality of her always coming back to a life full of sunshine.

A precious fruit
Holding an apple is
History circulating in motion
The first fall,
The first digital revolution,
The doctors' one way.
It serves purposes of many.
But i hold an apple
With my pocket knife
Make art out of a fruit
A nice butterfly, smartly knitted
A map of my origin
It can be moulded in many
It can divide nations too
Wage a war
Genocide and what not
An imaginative flair
Of so many realities.
Objects then are not objects
But a history
Fighting against the white crown
The sun down ruling
Tearing the flag with just
A pinch of writing.
An apple can do wonders-
It saved my neighbour's
Life
A sickening days of chewing
The flesh and the core
The lady is now walking fast.
Then I have heard
A boy of merely ten
Fell to a dark depth
A big precipice of high altitude
He was picking apples
An apple served his death.
A precious fruit, I thought
And stopped my pen.
May Days
Rains in May days are like coins
The surplus is warm
The last drop, Tangy
-An orange flush
Over my cheeks
To remind me
Flush away and heal
The poison ivy.
In the afternoons
I look up,
The violet vast spreads
In the open.
A rainbow makes my sensitivity
A beautiful pool
Of coloured waters.
Then I know howling storms pour
To mirror the humane
Blanketed deep around
A vulnerable, little child
Coiled in wintry rage
The eyes are afraid to look open
And taste the earthly paradise.
At night I walk open
The night plains
winged with doors of magic blind
A stairway to a fountain
The tails swim in the mermaid bliss
Funnel like, the soma
Wets the green flush
and weed out the darkening thrush.
Then, the castle of
The mountain
Where cherubs lie in ditsy water
And sprinkle the purplish hymn
Of Almighty
And his blessed lamb
In surplus rain of
May days.
Spectral Shadows
A small child of buried past
Pocketed her memories
over her little watch-
Ping out the unhinged wall
Over the bricks,
Little tulips here and there
Lying flat over
A cauldron
Of Holocaust Shrieks
And template of dehumanized
Silence.
The sudden fall of
The writer
And institutions that zipped
Up his lips
Over testimonies
Later, he wrote a book
On linguistic silence.
His fall failed back
Between two worlds
Masked and silenced
Words of Jews and
Zeroes.
Dates of people
She remembered well
Her taped
Eyes that grew up
Upon Seeing flashes
To Spectres
In a whim
Of seated big men,
Eating away within
The ruptured channel.
On Monday,
she met a friend
Of her past school
Swaying by the river walk
Of little feet dangling above.
Rosebuds after the summer haul
And she made friends
From one to many
And chalked out their birthdays
Like her favourite puzzle-
Two of them stringed out
She could remember too much
She touched the thumb
And cut the string
And sat down by the last bench
With her little flowy skirt
And loosened net shoes.
"I sat and counted
One two three
I can remember all of them-
Her favourite way to dance in the hall
And how she made her first cut out
I sat then and became invisible
A whole bunch of rosebuds
In the afternoon fall
The fallen petals, the trampled buds
And i sat at the end
Tallest and i counted
One petals two and three
With my bag of rosebuds after
The classroom went dingy
And i was alone
And it rained hard
Then I gave them my
Umbrella and my favourite petals
As I sat with my
Spectral shadows
With my pocketed watch.

guilty nails torn off by a scream glued to a dead kitten
graveyard inside is a bedroom

How to be a corpse in a big house?
How to be a frame in a big house?
How to be small in a big house?
How to properly shoot neighbors in an apartment building?
How to scream in a very large house?
How to be silent? What is the right way to cry?
How to die right? How to be a child?
How to be an animal? I am overgrown-furry
I'm overgrown with a stub of a church candle
I grow like a tree for my grandparents
The apple tree is a Christmas tree on the neck of a drowned man
***
The water is silent: therefore it is on the lips, on the eyelashes, on the forehead, on the corpse. Water is a stone, and stone is silence and restraint. Remember how we were stones before we were born. Stone and tear: this is called patience. Thinking stretches like a silkworm over a wet path. Where are we going? Where does the rain fall? The dew conquers the grass. Tear after tear. Grass after grass. Face after face. Everything around is a reflection. Mirrors are silent because they reflect. God is silent because it is necessary. The person is silent because it is necessary. Man is the god of death, oh Lord. We put a candle for your repose, oh Lord.
