OPINION SHOOTING

I thought common sense
…has written boldly that stance determines chance
…and enhance the dance of thoughts and tongues
But tongues wag in nags to push our nation
…to lag behind
By engaging in tug of wars
…dividing many a gullible in their support
And forcing nobel hearts and capable minds
…to climb the fence of indifference

II
Greed is feeding deep into needs
So much
…a wrong must by all means to right
…based on stance
A right must by all means be wrong
…based on stance
Works of Lies have been parcelled into propaganda
Rubbing shoulders with the best of jobs
So many train their tongues to taint and saint
…right and wrong respectively

III
Are we still in a colonized slumber
…thinking we live to work for others?
Are we still in unknowing
…feeding off ourselves and feeling no pains?
Are we still in a daze?
…feeding our cravings with a craze of a raze in a daze
…and branding ourselves poor in wealth?
Until thoughts brake tongues
And sense puts out the flaming obsession of greed
We’ll be here
…marking time
…as our tongues snake to bite eachother
Pulling down the good and planting the bad
Till our earth cave in in fatigue
To mill all our generations into mud to end the madness
