POSTERITY
From the grand stands ahead
From the pedestals afore
You through time peep
The goings-on to see
Latently, within our loins you lay
As once we as progeny, were
In ancestors now cold and gone
Which route we’d someday go
Nature for planning weeps
As ills sumptuously feed
Patriotism coldly embalmed
Tomorrow, a mirage to many seem
History – replete with recurrences
Whisperers divine your thoughts
That fools loudly snub
Till their hearts callous wax
Hands feebly pray
Brains idly lay
Gloom wantonly prey
As dreams shyly stray
Someday in shame, may duck
At conscience’s courthouse
For posterity sure will demand
An answer of you and me
