The Vicious Mind

The mind of man is mischievous
Wondering in the wildest of dreams
Pondering to inflict the severest of pains
Nabbing the budding flowers
The rising stars a pain in the flesh

Despite the time and age
The sick mind will persist
Wishing life could be reduced to rubble
Though old age persisting like glue
Fighting with time though in futile
As fatigue and slow pace take hold
Wishing for the time reversal
That remains as elusive
Shifting like mirage on the long road

The vicious mind of man persists
Venturing to the realms of dark powers
That is rife with treachery
Which invariably leads to mental touchier
Poverty crawling with vengeance
As the mind remain captive

Finally the sick mind seeks recourse
To the ultimate weapon of vicious mind
Dreaming the sickliest of all deeds
Murder, bloodletting and sacrifice
To quench the quest for greed
That time never healed down the history
Despite the gift of life and age

Life and death the treasured gifts of man
To live and die the honour of time
For celebrities and the down trodden
Life and death the inevitable choice
That is crowned and graced by life
Lived with clean heart and humility
