The World is in Pain!

Kevin Carter: The Suffering Soul

He must have smiled when his magic wand created world,

But it took millions to understand his creative brand.

The brand which signifies his immaculate style,

Which is exceptional throughout the shining sky?

Evolution brought us to a level with a unique brain,

Are we really wise? As millions are suffering from pain.

Somewhere this evasive peace showers like rain,

But at the cost of millions of tears which comes out to stain.

Birds land there, where they find their prey,

Then, why people move on their own land like stray?

We preach ‘Service to mankind is Service to God’,

But the way, we treat minorities clearly depicts the fraud.

Those who irrigated their dreamland to their limit,

Were deprived of its fruits, besides debarring them to inhabit!

Evolution of mankind has reached a stage of retrogression,

Their vested interest has promoted them to a level of demotion.

Humanity is writhing in pain, in camps, slums and on streets,

Conscience is being bargained in the balance of greed.

Divided one is, since birth, in today’s world.

Global village, an innovative concept, but really hurts!

Help is offered under cloak of politics,

Heavens are made on the base of coffins.

Enough for this dying heart, can’t see anymore those grisly sights,

Though world is making rapid strides, future seems black and blind.

Creeping life, wreaking hell, heaven is too dear,

Imminent end, ravenous death, doom looks so near.

Helpless hands with shooting eyes, why am I alive? To see this plight!

                           Barren lands, forlorn path, bless them God or take me along……..!
