Anarchy Rules Us(Tanka)
- - - - - - - - - - - -
north, east, west or south
brewing turmoil all around
cooks and.spoilt broth
troubled waters, no fish found
sadly, none.knows how peace sounds
devil, our partner
Stockholm Syndrome, in nutshell
hopelessly cornered
brainwashed by many Goebbels
can't sift out heaven from hell
anarchy rules us
there is puerile happiness
while we make no fuss
most systems are in a mess
it is better we speak less
