The Fortuneless One |
| Airyn R. Lentija |
| Fortuneless,less fortunate,begarly weak! where will you pick the stick of hope under this godforsaken clouds of life? How could you survive its briery slope? I wonder... As your mind wonder to yonder Have you raciocinate the way to pay your hospital bills? Don't cry luckless one when you think of your bridegroom The cow! Where is he now? Drunk as a skunk in the dry field of empty stars... Gone with the unseen figures when Judas spilled the sawdust one boozy night. Look at your son by your side Does he give you fear? Or the idea of having him stirs your brain... Your poor verdant son wrap in his Dad's old shirt Not a plain white cloth was prepared to welcome him in this world Pretty pitiful,isnt it? Regrets,fears,pains ran reeling wild... long painful hours twist your mind to a scenery only psychos can define... Reverberation of hallow promises gulping,roaring in your ears. Politicians,NGO's psalming their plans but help a little and mostly do none of their promises until it will be forgotten and leave you rotten in the hospital for months. Lie down next to your son,ill-fated one Rest your wailing soul, open your eyes and look around the beds...there are dozen of beds with weeping women like you, the underprivileged... See!?...You are not alone. |
