No Offence Meant

No Offence Meant

There is a problem with our generation

A problem of gravest kind,

We do take a lot of offence

Like a stupid, without a mind


When somebody cracks a joke at us

Or gives us a piece of advice

We take offense at everything,

It's elixir of our noxious life.


It seems that offence is "Avant Garde"

Our generation's Life-Line;

We drape ourselves and fall in love

With offence in our offensive minds


Does this all come for free??

For it flows in air, all around.

And even if things doesn't sound so bad

We mould it into offensive chimes


Offence at words, offence at gestures,

Offence at every trivial stuff,

Our pride has clouded "The Conscience"

Only offence can make; our chest puff


But what really made us like this?

Is this an evolutionary sign?

Or we have made our mind so small?

Enclosed by ego Divine!


Are words and actions really offending?

Or do we see them through our cataract eyes?

Are we really offended by others?

Or by evil that within resides?


Let's make our life a bit simpler

Let's enjoy these offence in life

Let's make them gentle, calm and cool

Like a stream in rocky ravine!


Let's make a fence for offence

To keep it at bay from life

And raise our souls above the board

To cut ourselves loose from strife.
