A Fools' Paradise! Poem by Ramesh T A

An island of resorts far off from mainland

It's a fools' paradise where only fools and

Horses rush to explore rubbish course of life!

All fools rush rash as unbridled horses do

Freed from rigidity of any control of culture!

Govt. functions as banana republic anytime;

All wrongs are right if they wish to be so and

All rights are wrong if they desire to do so!

Only mafia gangs thrive on opium trade in

That banana republic marked by Casinos

Open to tycoons of world popular monopolists!

From morn till night and night to morn games

Of gamble consume billions of dollars in no minute;

Paupers become multimillionaire and millionaire poor!
