THE PLEAD...
My papers lie torn to pieces
Waiting to be perished under the natural forces
My works, My lifeline
My dear passion
How they got turned
Turned with the wheel of time
I used to have a covetous position
But now, who cares
Yes, who cares a writer?
They don’t want our works
They don’t read
There was a time
A time when we were considered great
They ‘d read our works
They ‘d travel to our world
But now!
How I wish I was in the past
I wonder
If there will be a time like that ever again
I fear a time
My hands tremble
A time when newer children
Don’t know what books are
I fear its arrival
An arrival so near
It can happen maybe today
Or maybe tomorrow
Oh no!
It is nearing
I pray I leave this world
Before I see the world like that
I wish
I plead
I pray
Please at least in my next birth I want to be in the
time when people used to read.
