Darkness, <br />Dejection, <br />Despair, <br />Abstraction, <br />Blues, <br />Lamentation, <br />Oblivion, <br />And a never ending <br />Depression… <br />Should I have to live with that? <br />I have put my life on a rack, <br />Which is being eaten by white-ants. <br />Decaying hopes and blazing fears, <br />Where can I run away; <br />With my frozen legs and stiffened arms? <br />As a Doctor had injected ample vials, <br />Of Haloperidol into my buttocks. <br />Should I have to live like that? <br />Nihilistic delusions, <br />Distorted cognition; <br />And a dying insight. <br />Should we have to like that? <br />Where is the Son of Mary? <br />Where is the Prophet of Mercy? <br />O’ God! <br />You have no arm for us? <br />SHOULD WE HAVE TO LIVE LIKE THAT…? <br /> <br /> <br />Dec,2004<br /><br />Dr Kamran Haider Bukhari<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/should-we-have-to-live-like-that/
