CALAMITY
Dared
to dream impossible cheer,
Achieved
mileposts defeated fear,
Not the
story of mine manifested,
Human
life chessboard invested, (1)
Today,
grass field, tomorrow sock,
Skyscrapers
in line traffic amok,
Spirit
dreams are realized perfectly,
Forget
humans story time directly, (2)
Change
ownership, new face vigor,
Prosperity
links luck, fortune, eagerness,
Looked
at the towering height, sad,
Fell my
hat upon ground stay mad, (3)
The man
who owned everything fit,
Leading
life in poverty causes defeat,
Not for
one person, multiple cases,
Ultimate
terror calamity life eases, (4)
The
downfall links several directions,
Principle,
honesty, true-emotion,
A
changed person, wild and blind,
Every
action terminates unkind, (5)
Happiness
to loot plunder induces,
Number
of deeds blunder produce,
Success
is short, very short, frequent,
Deception
betrayal kills consequent, (6)
Calamity
sufferers elaborate hidden,
Human
life suffers from greed-ridden,
Justice
noble practice links security,
Cruelty
discrimination link calamity, (7)
Sprang
up daily news world over,
War
destruction sufferings cover,
News
under calamity pseudo-state,
Worse,
wait for debacles false debate, (viii)
Destroyed
natural soil plundered,
Calamity
climate duet wondered,
Finish
this two-legged creature,
Insulting
pristine beauty creator, (9)
Famine
sickness unknown exists,
Calamity
under the carpet resist,
Child
of God Human unique stay,
Love,
compassion, sympathy, sway, (10)
Protect
sufferers help build soil,
Fertile
land saves water, hard toil,
Bonhomie
fraternity exhibits amity,
Forget
the word cursed land calamity. (11)
