Sometimes… It’s just too tough Too tough to decipher Raw and pure honey From mere tree-bark syrup; Sometimes… It’s easy to rub a dog’s nose A dog’s nose with sweet scents Confused for real dog bones Dog isn’t stupid though. Sometimes… We walk on dry earth Forgetting the wetlands And dance to ego, pride And greed. Sometimes… We seek the un-sort In the bid, big pictures Get blown and we miss The natural honey-comb; Sometimes… Least unheard the story told Far beyond the cleavages of Seeming lips as lofty minds Dance at market places. « return. |
