Why Are We So Crazy Poem by Ramakrushna Sahu

Why are we so crazy
About leaving our footprints
On the sand dunes of desert
Where very often travellers are lost
And rivers are sucked?

Why are we so crazy
In exhibiting our face in the crowd
Does crowed has a face
To imprint in its eyes
Our image?

Why are we so crazy
To acquire and accumulate
Till the heart is crushed
Under weight of ego?
Till time exhausted
Why do we run after mirage?

Whatever we earn
Are thrown as waste
All that we decorate life as praise
Death drags all rewards to grave.

Why do we hold a flag of victory
Where the the earth
Is no more than a particle of dust
Where the universe is lost
In infinity.
