Jealousy Poem by Adnan Shafi

The preeminence of

thy grimace surgeons

naught in the glittering parts,

Just so, It is, you being the

envious person

Thy words don't chisel us

Neither does thyintonation,

You know not

What jealousy is,

Jealousy,

a rancorous germ

that wears away the heart,

a fiend that not ever remains

worthy 'tween the two,

Jealousy,

a pen that will not

ever let you divulge thy pathways

toward congenial.
