A Reality Inside The Reality
I foresee
And often envisage
I cannot figure out
Such description
Such sense
Which would exhibit
The picture of events
Even that
I stay evoking it
I draw the scene
To observe it
Unfortunately,
I fail to interpret that
What it means
Therefore, I question you
Perhaps you have the answer
As we send you the toys
For your children;
We consign the oil
To run your factories
To brighten your cities
To preserve, your standards
Of life
We emancipate the cheap work
To enhance your way of life
And other such objects
In return, what you render
Guns, bombs, tanks, dynamite
And such weapons
For our children
With the conduct
Of supporting dictators
When you can associate with love
Why you perform that with the gun
I donate you
My eyes, to deem pain
And tragedies
I offer you
My ears, for listening to the cries
I devote you
My heart
To feel the sorrow
Of the innocent people
I gift you
My brain, to perceive justice
When you, enrapture us
With the medical devices, medicines
And food articles than dynamite
When you demonstrate us
Love, peace, harmony
Justice, equality, and empathy
Instead of the hatred, enmity, isolation
Just effectuate and accept
We also breathe as others.
