The Earth Orbits
The Earth orbits on its axis –
Third standard Geophysics surprises poor brains.
A galaxy of falling stars is reported
to be sprinkling down the Mainland tonight –
an occurrence of centuries after!
Nat Geo discovers a rising boy astonished.
How nice! The Aborigine besmears the sunshine.
The Mom smells, often a time, perfumes bewitched
Papa returns home, when, drunk at late-night.
She knows well how to shed tears
alone at the kitchen.
Next of the door, lives Mrs. Roy
With her only husband at the 2 BHK Italian floor.
Shares Mom with whom her holidays beguiled.
Feigning eye never looks palpable,
Insinuates metaphors.
O, Sensex down!
Mr. Roy entreats the market growth,
Sleeping less and is waking frequent
by the bad dreams of mendicancy Squads,
Mr. Roy hates much – makes all worried Mrs. Roy.
The Earth orbits on its axis.
A galaxy of falling stars is reported
to be sprinkling down the Mainland tonight –
an occurrence of centuries after!
O, who is she? –
The Gambler’s wife?
Standing alone road aside at mid-night
Faded away coloured lips!
Does she know?
A galaxy of falling stars is reported
to be sprinkling down the Mainland tonight –
an occurrence of centuries after?
But, knew the young man,
refuted again in the interview for accent,
read the headlines early in the morning
slept dead tonight.
Let the Earth orbit on its axis,
Let the falling stars sprinkle down,
Let it occur centuries after –
The young man will not reawake
to correct his poor tongue!
Human rights are on the benches of the jury
Supreme with law dictionary.
The Earth orbits on its axis,
A galaxy of falling stars is reported
to be sprinkling down the Mainland tonight –
an occurrence of centuries after!
The road is clogged by the rally
To prevail the human rights:
“Our demands must be granted!
Our Comrade, Zindabaad!”
O! the pregnant lady, hold thy womb
delivery must be delayed.
Ambulance cannot move on,
flooded away traffic lines;
Let the rally pass
to prevail the human rights first!
Chicken masala’s been kept in fridge,
Let’s make it hot before to eat!
The mad’s reached at his rooftop
With his telescope to cherish himself
the occurrence with, tonight, of the centuries after
before the History to repeat:
“The Earth orbits on its axis”.
