Hey, are you listening?

Morning will raise me again

The unavoidable question

What will you cook today Mom for me and siblings?


Again I try to avoid

As usual to change the mind from cook

But it is impossible now for me

They all are attending the age of their wishes.


Can I engage them in TV?

Else, insists to play the internet games

Enjoy with your smart phones

But dont ask me all about what prepared in dishes.


What a pity for we all

Entangled with you and your dignity and post

All these so-called reputation have

Failed to fulfill our minimum cost


An empty vessel she told me in anguish 

Mild me on my act as earner

I quietly absorbed (listened) everything

Corona compelled me to stay de-react over.


Neither me a migrant, nor even

A daily wage labour

Falling in the helpless mere middle class race

Staying in acute distress

Beyond any Govt. help or philanthropy cover.


I am not coming dear 

Under any reservation or quota fixed

We are only here to tolerate

Those so-called big words or else ready to be axed. -


The society clutched me all-around

Neither I go away nor the power to strongly react

Pandemic stopped my salary further

And maltreat with a blow to stay nowhere.


I haven't that courage or any source

To tell the truth and to stop your question

Stay handicapped and look fumbling

Is it the solution to smash us all forever?


No..I can't and pray to God

Let us place all into a frame,

O God and keep us away ever.
