Modernity-An open question!

Modernity-An open question!

A Poem by fattycbreezy52
"

modernity evokes PESSIMISSM.a confused state in itself!

"
Things look lovely and alluring
Like the fresh hues of those incense-bearing flowers.
But these things are merely an artifice
Like the colours and added preservatives.

The children look playful,carrying those compact backpacks
But are there really books inside them or the remnants of the things used already by the children of their own age? 

The sea is composed and still,decorating herself and expressing coyness if and whenever the sun shines
But is it actually an embodiment of such calmness with the waves dashing hard against the shoreline?

He is an author who takes up his sword and writes,writes for the sake of humanity
But why is a boodle still seen waiting outsiding the movie hall for the next show at midnight?

Flowers add to the beauty of your surroundings,you love them everytime
But will you still prefer those plucked flowers or fragments of poetry over imported chocolates or snacks of midnight?

You will love to your heart's content,and write verses on her beauty
But will you accept that embryo in her womb and do your paternal duty?

You hate summer afternoons and prefer a roof above yourself
But what if I have no vehicle and only an umbrella to offer?

You are a modernist,a creature of modernity.
I asked so many questions,but sought answer from none.
It's open to us,for us to evaluate
The decision to destroy things or just to create!
