Today’s Tale

by Pranab Ghosh / October 24th, 2021

Time trudges through
Muck

Time trudges through
Decay

Time trudges through
Death

Your time
My time
Our time

Covid, job losses, agitation,
Inflation, suicide, rule
The roost

Is this the civilization
People of the world
Have struggled for
Since inception of
The

Earth?
