Twirling his mustache he smiles

Injustice and inequalities make him squirm

Being kind and upstanding are the points salient

Of his character that is also just and valiant

People might try to bend him but he’s resilient

That is the image of a knight in shining armor

I hold in my heart in hopes of a rescue

One day from a world which is losing

It’s values of high morals and truth

Till then I fend off the falsehoods

And anarchy which surrounds us, the best I can

I would love to forget

The problems that I face

To free my mind from the burden

To cleanse it of the debris

Or I hope to get an epiphany

A way to solve all that is causing

My brain to fume in fury, in chagrin

But since neither is forthcoming, I need to

Change my perception and see my problems

Not as challenges but as opportunities

To do better in life, to achieve something more

Something out of the ordinary, something remarkable

She needs to be adroit and clever

The writing has to makes due progress

The tidy desk is no indication of

The muddled state of mind she has

The muse is annoyingly elusive

And that big vulture of time feeding

On the schedules and commitments alike

Still, she feels she has things under control

If the rumor mill is churning out Tales

Maligning your reputation, why create a ruckus

The cycle of lies won’t stop by shouting against it

A dignified silence can be the best response

Some traffic in blatant falsehoods

Don’t let it bother you, don’t let them win

Why validate the lie with a denial

The flowers growing in the mud are still pure.

What can we do, but endure

Fate and the curveballs life throws

There are no ways to change

What has already happened but to

Go along with the choices already made

Don a mask if you have to, to fool the people

But always be honest with yourself

Smile to hide the pain put on a brave face

Those you met socially seldom keep a track

Of your wins or losses, of your achievements in life

Sure they will be ready with a pen to sign

When you’ve made it big, they all would want

Your autographs and pictures together

History repeats itself because we refuse to learn from it!

All the remorse and regret of our actions prove to be evanescent and transient.

We look at the prospects of an adventure and plunge into it headlong, no thoughts about the precautions that need to be taken.

It’s like skating on thin ice, thinking that it is solid enough to support our weight, learning differently to our cost.

The affluent and the wealthy don’t give a thought to the poor, because they would never be like them.

Wouldn’t it be nice, if we for once saw beyond our noses, to the reality that stares at us across the chasm, of what is and what we think is!

And yet the history repeats itself again and again because we never learn our lessons the first time around.
