The world is vulturous, where is the asylum?
Humanity is embarrassed, evil is the dominant,
Boundaries are the barriers, and identities cause variant
Differences in race, color & creed
are permanent
Betrayal is survival, the double cross is an avocation;
Dodge is cheery whereas virtue is forlorn.
Servility is sweet while oppression
isn't abuse,
Hypocrisy is a high skill and religion;
a misuse.
Wisdom is vice where wealth is the only
choice,
Morality is misery but greed has a great
rejoice.
Richness has all the rights where
poverty is unfit,
Simplicity is worthless and glamour has
no regret.
The soul is sorrowful, humaneness is
mourning,
Appetite is jubilant and desires are
dreaming.
Friendliness is folly, malevolence is
prudence,
Feelings have a great fall, innocence is nonsense.
Summary of the Poem
It is a bitter reality that we humans have many hidden faces that cause unlimited problems and pains for others. We act like beasts and oppress innocent and helpless people just for our self-egotism. We don't have any fear of God that's why don't even care and hence cross all the limits of humiliation and oppression. We make life miserable for others which is indeed a shame for humanity. Therefore, we need to rethink our actions and deeds.
