I admit that, selfish waylay as pythons,
To swallow the lives and peace innocent
humans.
Greedy waits for the opportunity to nip off
the flesh,
From the body of living human beings like
vultures.
Crooks camouflage behind winsome words,
Like a slayer sword hides behind a carved
scabbard.
Knowledge and conscience are mortgaged near
ambition,
Opportunism has become the hidden agenda of
person.
Superiority complex of people shadows their
wisdom,
And they get involved in mutual warfare like
small children.
Passion of wealth corrupts human minds as an
enchantress,
Even wise men do dumb things coming under its
enticements.
The outlets of lie are crowded and those of
the truth isolated,
People feel no shame in lying and counting
truthful as stupid.
Principles, concepts of virtue and vice has
become outdated,
Doing anything for growth and success is
considered as justified.
Fraudulence runs in veins, wickedness in
brains,
Lions are on the hunt of stags, you can’t say
who, how and when.
They are believers of the almighty in their
places of worship,
But in practical life, they do not want to
remember His ethics.
Eyebrows are up, swords are bare, an
undeclared war is on,
But you do not need to worry or fear, my
peace pigeon.
You are a child of nectar, a worshiper of
love and peace,
Sordidness will not touch your skirt as you
are under His bliss.
You are the truth, will always triumph, will
remain justified,
Coming across all debacles your win and glory
is destined.
More a sermon than poem.Well composed.
