Demoralizer--- The Uninvited Guest

 

 

Demoralizer --- The Uninvited Guest

 

 

Whispering in my ears softly

He growled that am not worthy.

Stealthily he crept in my shed,

Sat in the corner and deflated me morally.

 

Me in silence looked at him and blabbered

Because he was the king�"the ruler of the praiseworthy

He put me in sheer distress, as I knew not why,

He hailed in my shelter, jam-packed of rags and poverty.

 

Trembling with consciousness scrutinizing my visage

I walked towards him to face his charge,

With a flare he glanced at me

For him I seemed nothing but a piece of misery.

 

I congregated the modest amount of my pride

Glared back and answered with a tremulous sigh

“Neither have I stationed my body nor did I rigor my brains too hard

I use my will to achieve the puniest pinnacle I can accomplish

Use my wit when in a situation of melancholy,

Light up the glooms with chaste beams

Sigh in a catastrophe to coax my team

Materialistic possessions I though lack

Crammed with the worldly mirth I gleam.”

 

With a sight of utter embarrassment 

 Eyes he rolled down offend,

Chuckled with agony

He left the couch hurriedly,

As he knew I pulled the strongest strings

Left him weak at words

And attained victory.

I loved the last couple of lines,

"As he knew I pulled the strongest strings
Left him weak at words
And attained victory."

A powerful write, my friend.
