Have you noticed lately? How people diss everything big and small Things they cannot relate with Things they cannot comprehend As if, the onus lies on others - people and things To be self-explanatory, to spoon feed As if, a mystery should as though unravel itself As if, we have no part to play here As if, everything is for us to enjoy But never to be pursued As if, life should come easy, And everything in it, everything that comes with it As if, death too, should come easy And maybe this makes sense to everyone This fashion of thought Maybe I'm the only one who cannot fathom The depths of stupidity in thinking so Maybe, I cannot relate To the ways of the world It's a strange world, As if, the onus of becoming comprehensible Is on the world...

A stranger in this strange world

We criticize the world, but aren't we the world just as much? You, me, all of us.
