I HAVE SEEN

 

Ram Sharma

 

Corruption and violence,

Judges bribed or shot,

Prayers often bought,

Donations doled for name.

 

Man as barbaric

Love swapped or sold,

Friendship based on needs,

Fidelity no more sought.

 

Teacher as a businessman,

Politician as a preacher,

Man as animal

Animal more humane

‘I wandered in the pursuit of myself

I was the traveller and am the destination.’

                                                                  - A Sufi
