Walking Dead Bodies
With naked eyes what I see may be taken as naive
There is many a dead body not lying in the grave
A dead body can't hear or speak
Cannot opine, protest or shriek
Quite unable to find or seek
Does not foresee a future bleak
Down its cheeks tears never streak
Something of the kind you may notice in the walking guys
Deprived of conviction and common sense are talking guys
Robots or graphics animate
Saplings or seeds that germinate
Or power engines that generate
Are better than those who stagnate
Much better than inactive mate
Who has no objective and thus he cannot prove his worth
Is he not mere dead wood?? Sheer burden on the earth???
A man who is devoid of soul
Who always poses like a pole
Cannot put on the fire coal
Inefficient to play his role
He is dead body on the whole
So many dead bodies are there scattered on the streets
Who live only to eat and drink showing no daring feats
..Interesting..
Walking Dead Bodies Indeed! I couldn't have said it better that's for sure! As much as I love watching people, everyday I am simply amazed at the majority of folk who walk around in some mechanical unconsicious mode. Not to put them down, I do believe everyone is exactly where they need to be. But don't you agree that the comparison of them to, those who are fully concious is striking?
Iqbal...yes this is so much like my "Bottle People" poets do seem to see the world with the same microscope... I enjoy reading your works and look forward to more of your posts...thank you. deborah
I enjoyed this one also! There are a lot of people in the world who seem to live this zombie like existence, no purpose or meaning, something I can not comprehend! But, who am I to judge? Live and let live I guess! Good post!!!
