The Smile On the Other's Face
THE SMILE ON THE OTHER’S FACE
Money power money
Rest is all hoodwinking
Peace, love, respect all are bluff
I am a real man of reality
I had never been in whims and fancies
Riding or driving a BMW car
Is more enjoyable than reading a poem
The touch of a smooth skin
Is more of a thing to brag on the street than
To be proud of a moralist
Test a pious man today
And make him a king to rule us
Within the falling of a dew drop he will be your oppressor
Nowhere is there any gratitude
Test him now who is talking about piety
And give him few bucks,
The bucks he could not earn in his entire life
The piety of this gospel is he will return nothing
Last few days I moved with this negative mind
Then I turned few steps back
And found a burning lamp
It was in the dark
It was inside me
Right in my heart
I myself did not like the darkness but the light
And realised I was killing what used to give me delight
The smile on other’s face
Then came back again my writing
The fountain of joy
In writing i am more joyous than the king of the world.
