No dirty games

It is some sort of dirty game Humanity is not to be blamed Black sheep are everywhere Still we have to find ways and stay somewhere Mind may bog you down Think of snatching somebody’s property to own Build castle on ill gotten money Offer poison in return of honey These are some of glaring examples We silently eat lavish food with apples Fruits may not appeal and long for still more Let it flood all over but expect down pour Truth may prevail at the end but the evil may prolong It has short life and not last long Yet some of the finest things fall on deaf ears We go on wasting precious years Who cares for new find and heaven? Why to bother for it now and then? Throw the stones at glass door Snatch whatever you can from the poor This is order of the day and just a routine All the trades and dealings are clandestine Night starts with rich food and wine Lots of verities on table to dine If you spare a little time You may not go in for it sometimes It is blood soaked wealth You can’t remain happy with good health Nothing accompanies when you really depart Even though it was dear to you and remained your part You amassed it with fine oratory and art Knowing fully well that it is futile and useless start
