What is good and what is bad,
When the whores look for the weak,
When the drunkard salivate for alcohol,
When the smokers inhale the carcinogenic dust,
When the mother leaves the children to seek wealth,
When the father toils all day and neglects his health,
When the brokers and agents pine for their commission,
When the hearts not satisfied with what these have,
When the sky doesn’t weep to quench the thirst,
When you and I pretend as if we champion for a cause,
we have closed our eyes as the new moon,
not visible to the truth, when the good is bad,
and the bad is good in different illusions,
we are the shameless herds, safely guarded,
we follow one another for the comfort.
a dilemma hard to find a way out of! often conventions set the rule of morality.
good can be bad or vice versa, depend on the pure intention of each person Nice poem, thansk for sharing
we follow for comfort, very right, I do agree seeing the present days. Very fine m thought provoking one.
