....A Fable Of Conflicts...? ? ? Poem by Sivan P.G Menon

a fable of conflicts....? ? ?
a poem by Sivan PG Menon
------------

Space Inner …shelters guilt….
…quest… to conquer ….
Explore..Expand..Exploit…..
Don’t you hear the Cries of ‘ Babylon …
From the ruins of Bedouin heritage…….
Have you learnt to live with it…..?
Now a quest to trace LIFE else where…
Dreams to shuttle men….
Realms secluded…


Space outer…flames engulfed
A cauldron ….orbiting…..
I see a mountain heap, waste …
Nuclear …dump
debris...man made agonies…
Sense of insecurity …..
Despair…
..elope to seek pastures peaceful…
Disembark…to ruin the truth of genesis …..

Sky gazers….
Beware….
The stories you tell progeny…
On angels dwelling in skies…..
And the Santa ‘s golden carriage..
No more an excitement…
… a fable of conflicts..
