Better Half! ! Poem by Veeraiyah Subbulakshmi

Better Half! !



Through the grand bicameral house,
You have looked at me gently,
I have lost the feet of my ground,
just started to fly as the kite,

When I dipped the finger tip,
To color your ironed paper with,
Indelible ink, that goes away,
In a very few wash after work out,

Behave as the thug and a gangster,
Below the convenient blanket,
That need more and more frequent,
Hundreds of your democratic heads,

Show hundred different vague faces,
Those speak hundred different love languages,
The system for the people and by the people,
The spies are nowhere to be found,

Unless there are stacks of money kept;
You are the modern day Robin,
Steal from the poor and share with,
The corporate for the small tips,

Whenever you arrive at the door step,
To beg for love, I see you in the same checkered,
Shirt that was worn when you began the life,
As the budding robber, who had stolen my heart,

Let me bring all my friends to show you,
While you are on the podium with erected hands,
Holding the mike and wearing the confident smile,
that cheats every heart that longs for better life.
