A Frustrated Sigh

A Frustrated Sigh

P K Routray

When effort and talent have no say,

patrimony is the practice of the day,

Justice and truth command no respect,

devpoid of wisdom are knowledge and intellect

the deceit, ostentation and falsehood are clear winners,

purity truthfulness are slaughtered to be successful leaders

in vain we search for humanity, equality and fraternity

to eradicate hunger, diseases, homeless, cloth less and poverty.

With no visible solution or improvement at sight

everywhere among races, countries and continents egos fight

only another Big Bang we pray Him to create

another cosmos and another mankind will originate

forcing man with a mandate to  live within a boundary limit

shunning the negative characteristics as now they exhibit.
