Just For Survivl..(In Context With The U- Turn Of Humanity) Poem by Afzal Shauq

Just For Survivl..(In Context With The U- Turn Of Humanity)



The gypsies traveling
scorching the heat of summer
at journey's end
stopped their caravan
opened their tents
taking their rest.

A convoy of nightmares
suddenly found their shelter
fast moving winds
blew in the darkness
Long before the shadow of night

Fear took hold
they unable to move
remained frozen
a single lamp
their only light

The next day arrived…
with the rising sun
the yellow rays
ending the darkness.

The Caravan,
underway again
walked the same roads
as before.
