A Bed Of Nails Poem by Faruk Ahmad

Life is Harsh and it is Tough
The surface isn’t smooth, it’s very rough

Why do I feel so much pain?
Am I in a desert where it does not rain?

People on this planet are as clever as fox
Everyone I know is rigid of their orthodox

They are mean and they believe in Selfishness
I am afraid of their evil plans and fiendishness

Their tongue seems to be like a dagger
In their eye everyone is like a bagger

Their behavior is a cause of stress
Others they just want to suppress

It is sturdy but you have to survive
With strength will you have to strive?
