While voices of gored shrilled rampant
In a world assuaged with grief and trials
Deaf were the ears of those around
And their eyes reverted away in defiance
Care not they to lend a hand of aided alliance
Lives lost in numbers growing ever more
Useless in price to the big guns of show
Alas what remains is a hapless facade of families no more
Washed away their cores, their hopes before being formed
Their voices unheard remain lost in an endless storm
In glitz galore the others function on unharmed;
Oblivious, unmoved, entranced with their worldly trysts.

Humanity is the worst casualty of today's world...who buys the rose, buys the guns too...and emotions stay passionless alike faceless figurines on ramp--dare to impress, bare to solicit, and blare on cheap noisy bargains....
This one is very poetic although it holds on perfect notes to offer a haunting dirge...

Pictures of those affected by the floods in Pakistan worked as a catalyst... I try to detach myself when Im physically and financially unable to help... my words and prayers are all that I can give in such a situation... the anger though, arises manifold, thinking of those with all the power in their reach yet doing diddly squat...
