Definitions <br />21/6/08 <br /> <br />Our neighbours; <br />They do not exist nearby <br />They are far apart <br />like our apartments. <br /> <br />Our possessions; <br />They no longer need us <br />We badly need them <br />Like sex and sin. <br /> <br />Ours is a new happiness; <br />It is always dichotomous. <br />We happen to be happy <br />But we don’t know how. <br /> <br />Our successes; <br />Their colour is green. <br />But we find our face gray <br />When someone goes green. <br /> <br />Our greatest goal; <br />It’s to somehow make and mar. <br />Make just to our sake <br />And mar whatever is others’ <br /> <br />For us, our well being; <br />It is the state of being better. <br />A little better than the one <br />Who is staying next door. <br /> <br />And finally our faith; <br />It’s not of Gods or like Gods’ <br />We know better than Gods <br />That our wealth’ll open the Gate.<br /><br />A.
