Shop Of Brains Poem by Akhtar Jawad
Shop Of Brains
I was sitting in my shop of hearts for sale,
Many hearts I purchased many hearts I sold,
A few were fresh but mostly stale,
With sweet flattery words a few turned bold.
A time came, when all hearts were sold,
The shop was empty and idle I was sitting,
I decided to make myself some bold,
And to sell my heart, my over witting!
I don't know how but my wife was informed,
She came with a broom and swept unalarmed.
I am now running a shop of brains,
A customer has come, I am amused,
Well sir, it's brain of Einstein with no stains,
Very low it's price its too much used.
It's brain of Shakespeare, it's too, stale,
But it is cheap once again for the same reason,
And that is brain of Churchill ready for sale,
Price a little higher, demand of season.
The customer said you talk too much,
I want to commit suicide but my brain stops,
Remove this idiot with the help of a clutch,
And fix a brain with new blood drops.
All right sir, here is a brain, to you, I offer,
But it's price is too high it's fresh never used,
Whose brain is it? I shall pay, don't bother,
It belonged to an idiot, a suicide bomber.
indeed i agree with the comment below.....satire on todays state of brains......well composed under the cloak of humour....
Fantastic! ! I chuckled as your poem was so humorous! Your poem develops to a climax, one smiling all the way. Great write! ! Enjoyed it very much. Thank you.
Quiet Interesting write once again from your pen. Humorous write with a great message. Very true said, many teenagers fall into the trap and without thinking right or wrong they enter terrorism. Too late they realise... Beautiful flow of words make it quiet interesting read.
great write...reminder for youths who divert their ways to terrorism without using their brain.....
misguide the way of satan and we are the sufferer..less opr more we all are tied with the evil rope..May aLLAH GUIDE THEM..
This is a 'nonsensical' poem on the absurdities of life! Youths are are often misguided into fanaticism and they are willing to become suicide bombers even! A harsh critcism in the guise of humour!
