Inside and Outside

Inside and Outside

P K Routray

Rich gets richer

gaining health, wealth and power

at a price to poor

making him sick, needy and to suffer.

Serve and salute the poor to the power center

to quench their thirst and kill their hunger.

Rich steps his greed higher down grading his ethical values

under the intoxicating spell of the power of the chair and of its misuse.

Then comes the class with brain and brawn aiding the power center

advising, executing the plans for the rich, enjoying the role of the mentor.

Both the classes close their eyes for their pelf and pleasure

to the woes sufferings, misery of the down trodden pauper.

Thus is the observation by this author

who found over years and places the same dismal feature.

The real shocking situation prevailing on the earth is symbolized in the picture.

Hey Man! Please ask your conscience, look pathos outside, do not be cruel so bitter.
