Water Poem by Abdulrazak Aralimatti

I found water quenching thirst
My garden, fertile once again
Like the one in my custodians
The dream of thousand flowers
Promising a turn for reality

But watered I more than the need
Denying the true requirements of time
Flooding my garden to rot its roots
The very existence of life and growth
Turning again my garden into waste land

Like the masked word scattered
Dispersed from the barren land
I too a hypocrite in universal context

Like the king drowned in trenches
Voice of an unaccomplished soul
