The Less Concerned
Tall, Strong and Bright is he,
Fair in all, and well-mannered.
Disciplined the most
Among the rest, whose
Parents would envy, though
With prayers, For they
Wished him their sons’ model!
Families do praise his merits,
Habits and Behavior,
Achievements academic
And discipline professional.
Proposals, marriage and
Professional always in wait,
Though parents are in heed,
Unlike their indifferent past.
He has a great chain of friends
Like a King planet with the
Less luminous ones around,
As in a celestial domain float.
Politics, Society, Culture and
Media await his gestures most
To add more light to lime,
For fame’s feathers fall so fast.
He has only friends, no enemies
Save ONE, who was against
His crappy childhood,
And wayward adolescence.
No one else would ever dare
To set him, lest his instincts strange,
But the ONE, who remained
A loadstar and a shadow after.
Behold! A pompous reaper grins
In content by the rich set of sheaf,
While the bare field awaits
New furrows and seeds.
