A stupendous World

Google image

i am at a loss of words,

when i see the world

it’s majestic and cold---

mostly, yes, but it’s splendour

stupendous, it’s misdemeanour---

inequality everywhere

redwoods rising high

citrus and maples so elfin

before them, but they too shine;

ocean so vast and ponds so petite;

i do never remember we graded them on that

they are all fine as the way they befit

here when i walk on streets,

bosses sit on cushioned seats,

the workers in rags…

on the floor and nibbles left overs;

loud and showy are heard

shy and modest are ignored;

you need to be in the limelight

or you are an immigrant,

sick, refugee, needy or a victim

you need not put your opinion

you will not be heard

to give a place, to give a chance

takes your chances away or may jeopardise your existence

we are but a group of animals,

a bunch of social animals,

cautious,

nervous,

selfish,

pompous,

cultured and advanced!

we are a bit different

from animals in the forests;

they are cowards,

only hunger forces them;

we have multitudes of reasons

we attack at all odd times!
