Accused Poem by Rajkumar Mukherjee

Accused

Rating: 5.0


ACCUSED


without raising a finger of accusation

you have left me forlorn

alone in this jungle of skyscrapers

I am not aware of my faults

but I realize with great pain

you have robbed me of my powers

to write a poem
paint a picture
sing a song


the world laughs at me

at my naked postures of a beggar

they make a mockery of my efforts

and spat at my inabilities



how long have I to suffer this indignation

why not rob me of my lifeline

and let me join you in another life

blessed with all the powers you gave me once

Rajkumarda, All of us judge and are judged hence.... Judgeing has its uses, and then some... You are an acute judge of life, and have an eye for detail. Subroto.
