We Are Here

We are here sorrowfully happy
We are here crying and smiling
We are Rich only on TV
We are Rich only on newspapers.

Where are they says the leaders
Give them the remnants to eat
They deserves a natural glass of wine
And something to take as protein.

We are here living happily happy
With our swollen faces smiling
Lest we appear wretched on TV
Wearing rags with tissue papers.

Cleaning the toilets of our leaders
Inorder to afford bread to eat
We drank their pee as wine
And ate their poop for protein.

LiFe

Oh! What a globe of sorrows
Where troubles and problems morrow
And breath only but borrowed
Says he who sorrows.

I am alive, says him with tea
Yet sufferings and toiling graced thee with D
Death with silence he returns to thee
And Back to thee he wishes for pea.

Life itself prepared D for Thee.
With deceitfulness she lured D
And false hopes she packaged for D
Just for D to loose the Thee.

Difficult Generation

Abraham born before Jesus
They were born holding selfie.
They booked flight from the womb
Are the children of this generation.

They speak louder without sense
Yet wiser than Solomon himself
They sees beyond their parents
With food remnants on their mouth.

Right in the womb they ate wheat
Before they were born they saw you
What is it you know I don't know
Says a child from this generation.

Grannies yet sucking breast
A tree challenging forest
Difficult in accepting corrections
Are the children of this generation.

Eat your dough and bake the pan
Drink your eggs and fry the shells
Says a child who learnt nothing
Yet she knows better than granny of old generation.
