Away in the Eastern skies, fire and smoke bellow

In another starry dimension, folks gobble burgers and jello

Gaza wrenching out with shrieks too terrible to hear

Ruined in ashes that even demons dread and fear

The Twin-Tower’s attack paled in comparison

In Gaza, they wish it’s just another nightmarish vision

Like a whispering dragon the United Nations
Trapped in a serpent’s den, it lost its significance

Carrying goodies in chartered silver wagons

They lost their glory of the 1950s and '60s

Humans over the globe live in their miseries

On wings of eagles, the BRICS is ready to rise

A glimmer of hope is caught in a beggar’s eyes

Economies are soaring and some are crashing

The pound and dollar are sinking, the dinar is rising

All wheels are racing out of control

In a lopsided greedy globe, it’s not surprising

People in conflict are bashing and lashing

The Ram Mandir glitters in bright neon lights
Hearts thumping in an emotional blaze

Shooting stars showering out a new phase

Political parties ready to take up the fight

Saffron glowing in the morning dawns

Amid the euphoria, some souls mourn

PM Modi sonorously says he is winning

Joe Biden’s fame seems to be dimming

While Donald Trump takes another spinning

Old men and women muttering in distant twilights

Shivering, huddled while icy blasts strike at night

Stone-studded daggers glimmer in the dark

The hooded haunt dimmed streets and night parks

Nothing will change anything, except a little wave

A little bit of mercy from the Holy Divine

Can turn the nefarious tides around

With a mystical twist of fate

The supernatural can save

Making dead things rise from the grave
