ALAS

a poem by Ramana Tandra

Oh humanity
Where is your escape to?
What are you afraid of?
.
Isn’t that the exhort
biting itself
Bit by bit?
.
Isn’t that the defeated blood
Falling down as flakes
Spreading its stink?
.
Can
The cloud caps of hostility
Pours the compassion?
.
Oh humanity
Where is your escape to?
What are you afraid of?
.
Yes
I found the fact
The relations are intestinal
Not affectionate.
