Warning

a poem by Sudarshan Madhav Karhale

On every turn of life
Awaits a new trouble
Courage of a one-time victor
Is crumbling down to rubble

The pillars of confidence
Are rotten by ego
Shattered by a trivial blow
Like a build of Lego

The foundation of success
Keeps loosening its hold
The cement of the efforts
Is not adequate as told

Faith on top, serving as roof
Is soon going to collapse
Luck is not going to help
But you can stop the relapse
