Prophecy Of Back Home
Been everywhere,
Seen everything.
Observing the trends,
Seeing people change.
All over the world,
Only cries of pain.
Honesty long lost,
Corruption prevails.
Love marred with hatred,
Greedy are the desires.
People closing doors,
At the face of the needy.
Vagabonds sprawled ,
On the side footpath.
Ribs or stomach flesh,
Can’t be discerned.
No sound of chirruping,
In the cacophony of cities.
Snatching, looting, stabbing,
And, the conscious fading.
Do sun rise in the east?
Would be the next debate.
Comfort to be found nowhere,
Prophecy of ‘back home’ signaling.
