Running like Mad.
Brijmohansajal 1946 (India)
Look at any Street,
Anywhere, here or there,
People are running like mad,
Without any reason,
Just running away fast,
As if, some ghost is chasing,
Running fast on motorbikes,
On cars or any mode,
Just running left and right
If they don't run fast,
They may miss their train,
Or may miss their flight,
Only running, aimless running,
Supposing, all roads are open,
The complete road mentor for them,
And all the road signal are close.......
About this poem
This simple poem is about those people who run and run but what for? Baseless running. Without any proper reason.
