Poem - O Malice!

Its 4 am at my new job in a hotel. I am still deep in thought about our previous subject of discussion. Here's is a poem I wrote this year in regards to the impending victory of the underdog. It provides a sense of new beginnings in light of the upcoming new year and the inevitable triumph of goodness and Truth over malice.

Enjoy.

By the way, I haven't forgotten the much awaited 'list' of my observed differences between life in the West vs. East. Will post soon !



 O MALICE!
Blind people dance
to a well-told lie

they don't need to try
imagine a hungry child cry

she s going to be blind too , you know
her Sight, fight and right to life,
unable to grow,
innate friendliness unable to show

you take away her eyes with spite
use unilateral might to assasinate her Right

To know the true source of,
the blind people's fright. They dance to

your tunes, your music, your lies
that seek to dissuade that very right

Meek easy and submit freely you sight-snatchers,
Else when the dance ceases to outweigh free sight

The force of your own lies will gouge out your eyes.
