The Escape Sequence Poem by Sawan Dhyani

The Escape Sequence

Rating: 5.0


This can't be it
This can't be the end
Its only a phase
Like a stone in your road
Rolling towards you, heavy it looks
Then suddenly its gone
Gone away, away from you
You escaped
You're happy then
There are probably a few happy men
But you surely worth it
You definitely earned it

Like you buy a loaf of bread
Oh agony! A stale one it is
But you can't throw it
Cuz you know the worth it is

Then you hear people
People dying of hunger
People dying of pain
People dying of hatred
People dying of rain
Dying they are, not dead! ! !
Yes you can
You can save them
Save their lives
Save them there and then

You have the bread
Hungry they are
Why are you waiting then?
But stop, stop the clocks
Aren't you helping them escape?
The piece is a bad one
What if conditions get worse
Ain't no doctor there, ain't there no nurse
Ain't no more coins there in your damned out purse

This is the dilemma
The incomplete dilemma of life
You can think of help
But you can't save a life
