Like a Frivolous Wishes
-the living wishes to behold
-the lounging beauties of the whole world
-from the dept to the breadth
-four conners of the globe
-to behold all that was hidden
-and all that was open to all eyes
-but when the odious hands
-of death closes the eyelids
-of the hungry wanting soul
-all the hungry dreams fades away
-like an oil poured on the melting iron
-inside the silent closed end game grave!
