Sole Plus Point Poem by Nikhil Parekh

You bestowed upon him just the steering wheel; and the very next instant he lecherously demanded for the entire showroom of glittering grandiloquent cars; to
drive on a fresh wheel every new minute,

You bestowed upon him just a minuscule stone; and the very next instant he salaciously demanded for the entire mountain with astoundingly towering peaks; so
that he stood on the epitome to rule the whole planet,

You bestowed upon him just a tiny jewel; and the very next instant he barbarically demanded for the entire wealth of this earth; to eat; walk and sleep on a platter of unequivocal gold,

You bestowed upon him just a globule of water; and the very next instant he insidiously demanded for the entire ocean of boisterously tangy salt; to solely
sail on its handsomely undulating waves,

You bestowed upon him just a robust fruit; and the very next instant he ruthlessly demanded the entire forest of unfathomable delicacy; to placate even the wholesomely dead bowels of his impudent stomach,

You bestowed upon him just a solitary roof; and the very next instant he tyrannically demanded all the castles in this Universe; to harbor his unsurpassable plethora of heinous misdeeds,

You bestowed upon him just a stringent voice; and the very next instant he snobbishly demanded all the blissful melody on this planet; to indefatigably
appease even the most remotest of sordid wax; incarcerated in his bohemian eardrum,

You bestowed upon him just a beautiful dream; and the very next instant he invidiously demanded for the land of ravishingly bountiful paradise; profusely
titillating even the most infinitesimal chords; of his lackadaisically sensuous appetite,

You bestowed upon him just a stream of vital blood; and the very next instant he dreadfully demanded the scalp of every other living being; to immortalize his so called spurious of existence; to make him unequivocally; the strongest organism alive,

You bestowed upon him just a compassionate stone to sleep; and the very next instant he sordidly demanded all mesmerizing fur and scintillating satin in this
world to be at his feet; so that he could indiscriminately trample and play with it,

You bestowed upon him just an inconspicuous fragrance; and the very next instant he worthlessly demanded the fairies from the cosmos to descend down and
unrelentingly dance in front of him; so that he swayed in the aisles of voluptuous desire for centuries immemorial,

You bestowed upon him just a tumbler of rain from the sky; and the very next instant he diabolically demanded the entire entrenchment of rhapsodically vivacious clouds; so that he could evolve the destiny of countless; while majestically sailing in free space,

You bestowed upon him just a quintessential fabric; and the very next instant he sardonically demanded the skins of all those fabulously impeccable and exotic;
so that he could appear ostentatiously beautiful for infinite more births yet to unveil,

You bestowed upon him just an impoverished smile; and the very next instant he thunderously demanded every speck of tinkling laughter on this globe; so that he
could never ever plummet into the web of despicable doom; even after veritable death,

You bestowed upon him just a wing to fly; and the very next instant he domineeringly demanded the entire expanse of fathomless sky; to be heralded as the most unassailable conqueror of all times,

You bestowed upon him just an inconsequential dream; and the very next instant he senselessly demanded the memory of all intelligent beings on this earth; so that he never forget his nonchalant identity; even if hell rained down torrentially from the vast sky,

You bestowed upon him just an offbeat breath; and the very next instant he insanely demanded the lives of all those immaculate existing; to pompously inundate his lungs with unsurpassable carpets of air; to last him a countless lifetimes,

You bestowed upon him just a lackluster heartbeat; and the very next instant he truculently demanded the perpetual fireball of love in this entire Universe; so
that he lived life like an unconquerable king; even as his grave of horrific despair waited for him; on his every dwindling stride,

For although Man is such and even worse at times; eventually it is this very greed of his that becomes his sole plus point; in distinguishing him starkingly and forever; from the Almighty Divine.
