In Seeking Of Love, Some Follow Nose Poem by U Win Kyi

In Seeking Of Love, Some Follow Nose



In seeking of love,
some follow the nose,
they don't care about the source.
Whenever they smell the scent of woman,
after whom they always ran.
Whenever they catch the glimpse of young lady,
after whom they chase very quickly.

Once there was a gentleman,
highly respected among local school children.
He earned good reputation from his friends.
He was known as kind-hearted and righteous by church goers.
In politics, he had a bright future.
His kids loved him as a good father.
His wife loved him inside out,
but ignorant of his regular visit to call-girl house.

Then one night he was caught,
red-handed by a hidden pin-hole camera shot.
They were naked photos of him,
with a girl from prostitute ring.
He was black-mailed for 10 million,
as a hefty ransom.
If not paid, they would be published,
in newspaper which would cause him ' FINISH ',
with a lethal blow to his career,
so painful, so unbearable but he had to endure.
Then he realised what he found was not love,
it was sexual desire and lust,
which was filled with selfishness and sexual urge,
which was enhanced by the hormonal surge,
which was excited by adrenalin rush.

If he paid, his finance would be bankrupt.
If he didn't pay, his name would be bankrupt.
If he paid, his status would be saved.
If he didn't pay, he would lose his face.(in Chinese it means shame)

He had 3 choices,
not sure of whether wrong or right.
Choice One was to pay and live in poverty.
Choice Two was to retract from politics and live miserably.
Choice Three was to put a bullet into his head,
causing his family and friends sad,
and leaving a big? and guess.
