Digital World

Wired world, wifi nations

Neglected ploughs, flourishing space stations

Starving Sam, jobless Rahim

Elevated bridges, trampled dream

No mourner’s in funeral procession

Recorded dirges blare at life’s cessation

Mentoring websites, virtual classes

Fastrack Highways, carnal touches

AI on high esteem

Alas human emotions scream

Omnipresent is the Digital

Conveniently forgotten Individual

Sadly! Our villages are whining

Nevertheless, digital world is shining.

Life's Turns

In no time does life turn
a day
a minute
a second
the mind changes, boggles
realizes
understands
adapts
the world changes, marvels
sustains
develops
transforms
characters change, decisions change, people change
ranting and raving
rain and shine
shocks and surprises.

Life lives through changes
mutation or metamorphosis

Hibernate! to grow stale
However, every turn tells a tale.

Tomb Trap

TOMB TRAP

Home trapped, Feel alive,

Lock, entomb, to thrive,

Confine, Stay indoor

Anxious nature did unheedingly roar,

God’s wrath slithered germ spread,

Society distanced hitherto kins yoked.

‘Where?’ Crow curiously cawed,

‘Deserted!’ morbid Mongrel moaned,

‘Normal?’ Squirrels scampered to know,

‘Did bipeds hide in a fitful fiery row’?

‘Listen’ twittered frisky Sparrow,

‘We may not be heard tomorrow’.

Screaming their deed aloud,

Homo sapiens will shortly crowd,

Pilfering to hoard, Polluting the road,

Whilst the wild remains civilized

Anon Humanoids sojourn paralyzed.

For now, grievous quarantined Solitude

Silenced streets crack at sirens blare

Sans mercy the shrouds and conches prepare

Dusky days dark dyes scare

Our own making this deadly snare.
