Parody of Humanity

Stalled and dreaded, tireless they walk down
the deep gorge of doom and despair laying around.

Greed and wrath covered the high walls
welcomed them into the folds of endless struggle.

They craved and drooled as they crawl
towards the hidden mirage of joy, unknown to all.

The sky above them lightened a hope to breathe
with it's veil of endless serenity for all of them to feel.

Yet, they quarreled over the existence of sun at day
and fight for moon in it's whitey radiance at night.

They heard no one or let others say,they threw
rocks on each others face before they could say.

Rocks large and small, they armed all of them
said they would be ready for the mayhem.

A hungry vulture slyly swept around them
waiting for time when each one would be slayed.

Only if they could love and have cared more
with rocks to climb up the walls of the deep gorge.

Little they knew a vast land lay up there for them
with stretch of green plains and crystal rivers to swim in.

lets get along...

Under Construction ?

One never knows 

where he might stumble 

on the kerb of despair 

and faint on the vast green stretch of love.

But, what if there is no grass 

and only sharp gravel of pain 

and dirt of broken dreams ? 

There would be bruises all over 

and a deep ghastly wounded heart.

With the flamboyant attire of exhilaration 

soiled and not charming anymore, 

one would find himself breathing 

the murky cold air 

of ingratitude towards self.

Shine on you crazy box..
