Theory always differs from practice
Fraternity does not win over war mongering stakes
Turmoils silence all trials of philosophy skying around
Dreams dance far away from the reality chances on stage
Deceit alone rules the roost
Democracy is heckled by dictatorship
Peace fails in protecting peoples security
Poetry alone saves the time and soul
Dreams dance far away from the reality chances
From the flower bedecked beds
smiles fly away from the seats of naked eyes
ye shall know the truth to set your soul free
Author notes
4. I can't dream any longer when reality has so many thorns.
