What is a Curse but this !

The young men in a fast car,

Raring impatient to go

Under hot blood's warm flow,

Can't wait for the lady elder

crossing busy street slow.

The event over, her daughter,

Having more of life's clue,

(daughterly concern strife brewed)

shouts wisely, "Hey Showman there,

You'll one day grow old too !"

Under the sun's generous face

And crowd's anthill ways,

The monkey's open eyes

Upon this fleeting exchange say,

"What is a Curse but this !"

What is a curse but this ?

That, when stated plain,

Say the obvious fact once again.

Plain sufferance we can't out bargain,

Coated in fantasy in Disney movies

To make palatable for us men.

PS : All our curses and our boons

Is just one life breathing away.

The wise man sees through soon,

we curse and bless like actors in play.
