The stage!
One big problem of being good is that you never doubt anyone's goodness
You think that if this world exists,
then good people must be present somewhere in this world
You believe that people should be good, you search for goodness everywhere
You close your eyes to the truth that if the world was really good,
then instead of sitting alone and writing poems,
you would be laughing and singing in a crowd of friends
You watch the dance of a mesmerized peacock
So and so will come and tell you how ugly its feet are
You will say, but what a beautiful dance! They will say, huh, look at the feet!
You will get bored, Not because of the ugliness of the feet,
but because of the ugliness of their thoughts
Now when you start watching the dance again, you pay attention not to the feet,
but to the colors. All the beautiful colors of the feathers are fake,
No, no, all the feathers are fake.
Something grits in your eyes,
You rub your eyes,
Open them again.
The feathers are kept aside,
And an ugly, hideous creature
Is taking deep breaths in absentmindedness.
Something gets stuck in your throat,
Swallow it
Wait! Don't go
The creature gets up
Delicately decorates each feather,
Now the dance is happening on the stage
Do you want to go back?
Sorry! You cannot go
You have been tied with invisible threads
You use all your strength to break the bond
Sorry again, you still cannot go!
The crowd, rejecting all your efforts,
pushes you inside.
The hall is packed to the brim,
People are clapping in appreciation of the dance
Those who had shown the ugliness of their feet,
are shouting Once more! Once more!
The performance is on stage as well as below the stage.
Who do you want to clap for?
Are you confused? No one!
The wings will remain the same,
The dancers will keep changing
The dance continues
are you bored? Do you want solitude?
Excuse me. Can't you see?
That now everyone in the hall has beautiful wings
They are all friends,
And to make friendship permanent
A common enemy is necessary
They all have their fingers pointed towards you,
You are being whispered.
Excuse me. No, apologize!
have you not understood yet?
In this gathering of false wings
You are the ugliest person
Thank you so much for reading. Have a great day 😊🙏 @vikbuddy
