A Glimpse
A glimpse
Life is a strange event
that own twin tongues
of the same mouth
like that of a serpent
contains both venom and its remedy. (1)
Happiness and and tragedy crave
and compete to lord
on the single throne
though 'tis only one that will become a king
—ere the end! (2)
On every event each beat or rhythm
has its own vocalizers and dancers—
some serenade serene sonnets and waltz
while others grudge to mourn melodious dirge
— for two songs stream from different tunes. (3)
