Blindness Of The Eyed Ones

 
It's so easy to write more words  
vanity and levity, that say less  
 
much the same when you talk too much  
while your speech is meaningless  
 
even at more lower level when you lie  
in this mature age and awareness...............  
 
when the child lies we blame the kid  
scald him sometimes, hurt his feelings  
don't we realize that they are our seed  
 
Then, we reject the crops that we have sown  
shameful when the child read our sickness,  
see our vulnerability, watch how weak  
we present our poetic selves. how base we act,  
how low we represent the human being in our words.  
 
so easier to open the mouth to blue flies,  
carrying infection and fetid odor over their wings  
then complain of cocoons nested inside our throats..  
 
*********  
 
Even when the weather is fine,  
even when the sun finely shines  
and the flowers in vernal bloom  
even when spring is warm; the doves croon  
colourful vistas laid to your quill to ink, to paint, to recreate..  
 
 
You are still complaining!  
you are still ranting, foaming...vomiting...  
cursing the day, and the heavens  
 
don't you know if you take the sky for granted  
and the seasons to you, aimlessly gifted.  
those birds and elements that  
they pass unnoticed,..know  that :"  
 
for others, for the desperate one,  
for the poor people, for the sick  
aged ones, and for those  
who rarely can see, and for the deprived  
all those simple things are wealth, are treasury,  
are godsend, the boon you curse, the wealth  
you overlook; the poetry you miss,  
the life you should live and its fruits to the humans; then  
generously and unrequitedly give..
