The City -Roslyn rochanmawi buhril


(September 2007)

The city blazes brilliant in its luxury
But every dweller in it is inflicted by an injury
For the grandeur and the flimsy hide
Could not cover away the deep pain and scar

When every breathing soul  licking its way
Crawling ,blinded and mould by the note, like clay
Underneath the superfluous couture with elaborate folds
Is but a cold, hard, decayed and hollow soul
Where the few noble feelings bestowed us, is mistaken
And seen as weaknesses and wanting of the mirage haven
The pompous regal  cast
Is but just the bounty thriving of the filth and the worms inside of it
The deeper one runs into this glossed woeful mire
The more stark one comes in terms with the abominable satire
For one has to live with the other face of one’s appearance
Bartering precious reason to a society of masquerade
Where to be a member, one swallows one’s conscientious identity with eyes wide open
Many a men look so themselves, for who they truly are not
Where insanity is but the akin of reason
And true sanity is being insane in their eyes
But don’t you give in, child..!
For one day, outshine you will, this vile, fake glare
In the end, nothing but that what presented you insane
Will prove wrong will prove wrong their whole sanity
And brings to light, their inanity.
