The Curse of Duty




So many centuries in written adage,
Were these words of magic poured out in mode arcade.
As if a curse just to last a decade,
To the serpent and man of stone age,
For eating this fruit we differently interpret.

HUSBAND, love thy wife.
Bring to her no more strife.
WIFE, submit to your husband.
For ye are a treasure in his hand.
CHILDREN, obey your parents in the Lord.
Be glad that they spare not the rod.

STUDENT, neglect not thy God and dust not thy books.
Do it now or later make it in the brooks.
MAN, work hard to make and protect thy family and property.
Better start before you are thirty.
WOMAN, make babies and care for thy home.
Aside you, is there a safer dome,
In whom our hunger and lust may hope?

not MAN enough

Should I say breasted Swollen headed Rifty shouldered Or broad chested With the feet apart, fingers attached Reminiscing simulations of expected fallacies We still cannot promise  That which may only be a wish That by hook or crook We live not to miss One may hide his fear  Because people like him are rare Or when salvation is near But when a determined face  Is hidden behind a disposable mask, Then this is my take, "Lives are at stake For job security sake" Albeit: Positive mood and posture Creates a gigantean stature That holds onto a diminishing dream  And licks it like honey ice cream Therefore I am no moron In this metaphorical oxymoron; Of a naked dressed officer Wasting kiwi on black leather. But as we stand at our faith's peak It will take less than a week To prove we were never weak Courtesy only kept us meek But time on our side, shall speak And men shall find what they seek.
