Futurity

The show is on. Sedition will play with death now. Deceitful black knives, white gloves. No hope, battle lines are drawn. The wasps are whirring at a furious speed stings ready to inject venom. Bronzed body, huge turbaned skull. Eyes looking beyond you, hauls you through slumber of ages. The autopsy extracts out a bullet fired at close range, poured into chest. Death had a party. Frilled guns, yellow metal are ready to kill. Extended pain of centuries haunts the future. Give me the tearful farewell for another ruined journey. We will bury the present, forget the past. SATISH VERMA
