-Suresh Rai
I can annihilate my arch-enemy
By exuding a gorgeous bonhomie
You can’t at all turn the tables
You can’t walk me through your fables
You dive into a whirlpool of bad blood
But I rescue you out of this damn flood
I can dismantle the giant mountains
When they carry the violent fountains
Squatting on the summit of Mt Everests
I’m staring at those callous large breasts
Which don’t carry any compassion
Merely laden with lech and aggression
Undergoing severe penance and austerity
I’ve grappled hard for a surreal fraternity
Righteous ones are disrobed and discarded
Miscreants are always crowned and awarded
Staring at the world, a theatre of chaos
Qualified as servitors, yet acting as boss
All and sundry perpetually rain on my parade
As they’re all in an abominable masquerade
