Disaster's Plate

Beware!

Human, human, I know you are that smart

Decide what’s best, or when to fall apart

Like when to stop, or when to make a start

Why you’ve to stay, or why you’ve to depart

 

But since you are too curious of this world

Instead to stand you’ve stayed like firmly furled

You care not if your path now turns like curled

You trace them like a shadow that is whorled

 

Human, human, are you now feeling dry?

Are you bored of smiling, want to cry?

Do you feel now the need to sound like sly?

A disaster, you crave now, want to try?

 

Oh, here it is, the recipe you want-

A cup of fear will really help to daunt

A spoonful of insult or a fresh taunt

At night surely Achilles ‘ heel  will haunt

 

Do not forget to mix a pinch of hate

More wrong thoughts for a glass you need to  sate

Add jealousy and envy to your weight

Eat with greed on disaster’s perfect plate!

One we get a taste for the darker spices of life they end up consuming US!
This is cleverly composed Dhaye and well executed. Thoughtful and patiently constructed and it shows. Great write Dhaye!.

We spend too much time wanting to be others that be who we were born to be, searching for greener pastures rather than enjoy the beauty that lays before us. Ahhh yes we humans waste too much time till it runs out on us.

Thank you, sir.

A very interesting poem, sort of a recipe for disaster.

Yes, an entry to a challenge in the other site. I used some ironies here...sort of warnings.

Thanks, Eddie.

[jacob erin-cilberto]

this should have a good shot in the contest...those emotions all mixed together will certainly present an indigestion of heart...and it will be sick a long time.

[Dhaye]
