Imminence Poem by Hans Raj Sharma

View-
For a moment
Enigma of relations
The riddle of
So called
Associations
Afar from truth
Ought not to be.
Passionate
Claims-
Of intimate
Oneness of
Harmonious
Amity-
As such
Declarations
Of cherished
Proximity
Emerging
An Illusion
When-
A cry is heard
From the victim
Of grand
Intimacies.
Injured soul
Complaining
As to God
‘O God!
Save me
From my near
And dear ones
Save me
From my own
Closest friends
The enemies
I w’ll take care of.’
Isn’t it so?
A bare truth
A reflection
Or an episode.
Egotism clothed
In altruism
Followed by felony
Earthly endorsed
Most liked malice
Or spite worldwide
One stumbles at
Each time
With all the same
Excuses lame.
Where dearth
No disgrace
As to ingratitude
Discrimination
Every where
At each stage.
