I want to write, I want to sing;Starless night like a glass of wine gone empty; Wilderness silence like empty church; A girl is sold at the gambling table, The drunkard players in the dark-room fought, The law-makers roll up their sleeves, The policeman dozes at his post, The gate-keeper leaves the gates ajar, Half […]

Lifts are empty running, No visitor to see liftman smiling, The loud chatter of colleagues missing, Loss is the caption of the daily morning. Bread-milk supplier nowhere going, Cab drivers have stopped plying, Traffic […]
Trapped in the lockdown, horrible phase, Humanity struggling to calm the rage, Hospitals chained in the monetary gaze, Nothing left to halt the deadly phrase. As the dice of death spreading death fear, No remedy, only to shed the tear;Only a pen to vent the anger near, Family, friend and colleagues, all jeer. All try […]
