"We the willing, led by the unknowing, are doing the impossible for the ungrateful. We have done so much, with so little, for so long, we are now qualified to do anything, with nothing" By Konstantin Josef Jireček, a Czech historian, diplomat and slavist.

Come Back Please

Father since time you left,
My legs have remained on the ground kneeling
My hands in the air,
My eyes direct-straight to the sky,
Looking straight to heaven,
Expecting you always to look down,
Look down on my status after you,
The psycho-phobia am in,
father! please come back.

My bed wrestles with me night and day
My tongue has stacked inside its domicile,
My feeble legs can’t negotiate a distant.
Tears have dug a river on my face.
Father! Please come back.

Father! Why do you have to go?
Why do you take long to return?
Why? Why father !
Can’t you ask permission from where you are?
Just Permission!
Permission to come and set things straight.

You have left me in a mid-way of life and death,
Left me between the fang of snakes.
And in the den of hungry lions.
Which pumps out every life in me.
Father please! Come back.

Look! The world has turn after you,
I sleep with no food and no clothes,
Medication and education became secondary wants
The world went wild,
Humans have turn to eat humans,
Birds on birds,
There is no truth and life again in the abyss
Please, daddy come back,

Daddy! Please! Please daddy,
I am tired of waiting,
I need a respond please!
To carries away all the pain and sorrows.
And set the rules and instruments straight.
I will wait till you look down on your poor son.
I will wait daddy! I will wait till you answer me.
