A poem from Samita CHATTOPADHYAY (Bengal, India), CORROSION.

No more quibbling…
Pedantry is the cause of so many splits…
You are pugnacious,
Belligerent…
Are you all hunters?
Silently creeping like stalkers…
You are emitting venom,
Creating a splotch on the heart…
Why are you making these pawns quarry?
You fail to see that
Love is the effervescence of life…
Why create such nasty flecks ?
