You Will Find It Exciting
You will find it exciting
There is no mosquito bite
Only their shadows swim around
Hunger does not pinch stomach
Only its sores occupy your belly
Fingernails do not grow long
Only its memory hangs above your head
Jealousy does not knock at heart’s door
Only its bitterness sits on your laps
There isn’t dirty politics to play as game
Only its clients wait for second chance
Priests have no sinners to offer penance
Only holy devils pleading for candidates
Not even ugly girls to look at
Only their ghosts haunt the departed
All beautiful girls have disappeared
Only their inquisition remain strong
This place called end gate of life-grave
You will find indeed exciting
