Absurd Poem by Aparna Chatterjee

Isn't it absurd
That we overeat,
We drink, we smoke
We do drugs and then,
When we fall ill due to our
Bad habits of bingeing,
Boozing, doping and
Smoking, we stretch the
Country's struggling NHS
(National Health Service)
And after overburdening
Them, we blame them
For their lack of care,
When we ourselves
Show no care for our
Mental and physical
Health, neglecting it
And hurting it with all our
Belligerent actions and
Careless indulgences....
