The inurbane world faces its fate
with malignant joy, unaware
of it being a scapegoat in the
capricious transitory thing called life.
Yet we perspicuously flatter ourselves
and gravitate to the greatness of life
till the body dissipates and soul alienates
on the all- encompassing altar of death.

Sweet Surrender
Life is transitory impermanent capricious never malignant on its own
Just lessons to learn but full of meaning and lived experience
So when new lovers met they gravitated around the sunny stars
they flattered each other's hearts fluttering away sorrow in dissipated
grief for new beginnings
Slowly but perspicuously he had become another's scapegoat
though when her coat turned
from sheep to wolf’s clothing she dug into his soul with an inurbane
sour smug of superficiality
The other had blamed him took no onus for her inner landscapes alienated
from her vulnerable self and in protracted resolution and
she is now lonely but he dances with his new lover
to a different tune
